Hi, I have BackupPC 3.0 configured and working but I sometimes get errors which I think are due to the DumpPreUserCmd overlapping with tar.
I have: $Conf{TarShareName} = [ '/home', '/srv/www', '/usr/local' ]; $Conf{DumpPreUserCmd} = '/home/cpseg/scripts/precopy'; precopy gets a list of postgresql databases and dumps them all to a specific directory so that they can get backedup The error I get sometimes, not always is: Executing DumpPreUserCmd: /home/cpseg/scripts/precopy Running: /usr/bin/sudo /bin/tar -c -v -f - -C /home --totals --newer=2007-07-18 00:00:00 --exclude=./servidor/.beagle --exclude=./servidor/winxp --exclude=./cpseg/COPIAS . incr backup started back to 2007-07-18 00:00:00 (backup #64) for directory /home Xfer PIDs are now 26602,26601 [ saltadas 255 lineas ] /bin/tar: ./csadmin/canosoft/bbdd/atursa.sql: File shrank by 141771560 bytes; padding with zeros [ saltadas 19 lineas ] tarExtract: Done: 0 errors, 1 filesExist, 0 sizeExist, 0 sizeExistComp, 3 filesTotal, 163014044 sizeTotal [ saltadas 1 lineas ] /bin/tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors Tar exited with error 512 () status I understand that the precopy script was dumping the atursa.sql database while tar was copying. Is this correct? Thanks, Joe TSolucio ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
