To add to Andy's comments. Obviously the underlying file-system still has to support hardlinks... An alternative to changing TopDir is to symlink or bind mount the storage to the default TopDir. Two reasons for this are: 1. If you change backup location you just update the symlink or bind command 2. If you're running on a system with SELinux enabled (i.e., enforcing) it helps avoid SELinux policy issues depending on if there are specific context/policies enforced for BackupPC (like Fedora).
