I established backup on Debian Lenny server with backuppc and it has been great in collecting and backuping data from my 6 other servers. But my backup server hardware is rather old so I decided to purchase simple NAS just to mirror everything from my backup server.
Command I'm using is: /usr/bin/rsync -avz --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --hard-links --times --delete --rsync-path="rsync --super" --exclude=/proc/* --exclude=/sys/* --exclude=/tmp/* --exclude=/lost+found/* -e ssh / $nas_...@$nasserver:$NAS_DIR Backuppc top dir on backup server is on separate partition and disk usage is following: dev/sda1 16G 2.5G 13G 17% / /dev/hda1 184G 137G 38G 79% /backup /dev/hda2 184G 1.2G 173G 1% /home /dev/hda3 92G 1.3M 86G 1% /var/www Above command for all filesystems except backup (5G) i taking 10-20 minutes depending on network traffic and load of backup server but backup of backup filesystem is taking forever. I expected it to last at most 140G/5G =28 -> 28x20mins ~ 10 hours but it seems that with above command cpool and pc directories are copied like unrelated data ant its lasting few days. What I'm I doing wrong? Any recomendation how to best backup backuppc server to enable its quick recovery in case of hw failure? Are archives somethin I should use? Tnx.
