Its not really easy to backup a backuppc, read in the mailing list rsync is not a good idea because there a lot of hardlinks.
Whats the best way to creat offline backups? -----Original-Nachricht----- Subject: Re: [BackupPC-users] Archive without tarball - directly to the file system Date: Mon, 23 May 2011 18:05:07 +0200 From: Les Mikesell <lesmikes...@gmail.com> To: backuppc-users@lists.sourceforge.net On 5/23/2011 4:44 AM, samuel_w...@t-online.de wrote: > Is it possible to create a archive of a host without the tarball > directly to the file system as it is on the server? > > My tarballs are now larger than 300 GB :-/ I don't think there is a way within the web interface to add components to the archivehost pipeline instead of sending the output to a device or directory. However, this is just a wrapper around the BackupPC_tarCreate command line tool anyway. Just run it directly from the command line (or via ssh if you want the output somewhere else) and pipe it to a tar extract in the location you want. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What Every C/C++ and Fortran developer Should Know!
