Situation:
Host:
- Pc with Win XP Professional SP2/3 or Windows 2000 Server or Debian 5.0
with samba 3.2.5
Server:
- Pc with Debian 5.0 and BackupPC 3.0 or BackupPC 3.1
Share structure:
DATA
|
|----DIRECTORY1
| |-FileA
| |-FileB
| |-FileC
|
|----DIRECTORY2
|-FileD
|-FileE
|-FileF
Set BackupPC to connect to the share DATA throug SMB, leaving other
settings as default.
Change only the parameters XferMethod, SmbShareName, SmbShareUserName,
SmbSharePasswd.
Other parameters:
SmbClientFullCmd
$smbClientPath \\$host\$shareName $I_option -U $userName -E -d 1 -c
tarmode\ full -Tc$X_option - $fileList
SmbClientIncrCmd
$smbClientPath \\$host\$shareName $I_option -U $userName -E -d 1 -c
tarmode\ full -TcN$X_option $timeStampFile - $fileList
The full and incremental backups are performed without any problem.
Now I move, with cut and paste, the DIRECTORY2 into DIRECTORY1.
The new structure is:
DATA
|
|----DIRECTORY1
|
|----DIRECTORY2
| |-FileD
| |-FileE
| |-FileF
|-FileA
|-FileB
|-FileC
If, after making this change, I would make an incremental backup, host I
was faced with this situation CORRUPT:
BackupPC 3.0.0
DATA
|
|----DIRECTORY1
|
|----DIRECTORY2
| |-<empty>
|-FileA
|-FileB
|-FileC
BackupPC 3.1.0
DATA
|
|----DIRECTORY1
| |
| |----DIRECTORY2
| | |-<empty>
| |-FileA
| |-FileB
| |-FileC
|
|----DIRECTORY2
|-<Error: Can't browse bad directory name /DIRECTORY2>
I would expect this situation:
DATA
|
|----DIRECTORY1
|
|----DIRECTORY2
| |-FileD
| |-FileE
| |-FileF
|-FileA
|-FileB
|-FileC
Situation is OK, both with version 3.0.0 and 3.1.0, when I do a full backup.
With both versions, starting from the situation CORRUPT, if I edit or
create a file within DIRECTORY2
the following incremental backup saves me only the new or modified file.
Why? Other people have the same problem?
