Checked both of those situations and neither is the cause: 1) Pool file system was recently at 58% (3/5 10:47), today's max is 58% (3/5 03:30) and yesterday's max was 58%. 2) Log snippet from the night previous that worked (host2 is the last to be done, and the one that didn't work): 2008-03-03 05:16:45 Finished host1 (BackupPC_link host1) 2008-03-03 05:21:40 Finished incr backup on host2 2008-03-03 05:21:40 Running BackupPC_link host2 (pid=2871) 2008-03-03 05:21:42 Finished host2 (BackupPC_link host2) Log snippet from the night that did not work -- note that host1 finishes at 4:13 am, which is about an hour before the previous night -- also note the "0" skipped hosts: 2008-03-04 03:30:00 24hr disk usage: 58% max, 58% recent, 0 skipped hosts [...] 2008-03-04 04:13:10 Finished host1 (BackupPC_link host1) 2008-03-04 04:30:00 Next wakeup is 2008-03-05 03:30:00 Cheers, Raman ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
