I shrunk an ext3 partition and dd'd it over into an LVM2 partition on a Linux
Software RAID1 then I moved the /var/lib/backuppc out and deleted the rest of
the drive contents bc I'd already copied those manually. Then I upgraded the
file system to ext4 by doing some kinda tune2fs commands to make it ext4 then
ran the fsck operation on it to finalize the change.
Since I started it backup, BackupPC keeps having enormous log files and backups
seemingly smoother. Might I note I also upgraded the machine from Ubuntu Hardy
Server running BackupPC 3.1.0 from tormodvolden's repo to Ubuntu Lucid Server
running BackupPC 3.1.0 from the official repo.
After all of this, I get tons of errors like these:
2010-07-28 02:40:03 ERROR: opendir
(/var/lib/backuppc/pc/main/174/ffull-drive/fusr/flib/fperl5/fauto/fText/fCSV_XS)
failed
2010-07-28 02:40:03 ERROR: opendir
(/var/lib/backuppc/pc/main/173/ffull-drive/fusr/flib/fperl5/fauto/fText/fCSV_XS)
failed
The files don't appear, but I'm pretty sure all my backups aren't broken so I
don't know what's going on. I've checked a lot of past snapshots and have
restored some data. I don't know what exactly is missing that is causing all of
these errors which keep piling up more and more. The next log is probably going
to be even larger.
I figure maybe I have to run something like this to hardlink everything again
or something?
// Hardlink duplicate files recursively based on md5 hash comparison
find . -xdev -type f -print0 | xargs -0 md5sum | sort | perl -ne 'chomp;
$ph=$h; ($h,$f)=split(/\s+/,$_,2); if ($h ne $ph) { $k = $f; } else {
unlink($f); link($k, $f); }'
