This is my actual status of this host's backups: 474 full yes 0 10/14 21:04 885.3 25.8 /var/lib/backuppc/pc/polti/474 475 incr no 1 10/17 21:00 1115.6 22.8 /var/lib/backuppc/pc/polti/475 476 incr no 1 10/19 21:00 534.6 20.8 /var/lib/backuppc/pc/polti/476 477 partial yes 0 10/29 21:00 2504.5 10.8 /var/lib/backuppc/pc/polti/477 Yesterday I manually run an incremental backup, which now stopped with "backup failed (aborted by signal=ALRM)". My SSH is configured as follows: /var/lib/backuppc/tunnel.sh -fC administra...@remotehost.com -L 8875:127.0.0.1:873 sleep 20 Where tunnel.sh is: ssh $@ 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null && echo "SSH started successfully." So I have to force a full, now?
