Hi all, just a followup / footnote: I reviewed this a bit more today.
- the most recent backup (generated last night) has same symptoms as previously described - definitely I am getting new backups generated each night - logs look "fairly OK" to my cursory review. - also to mention, this BackupPC host is backing up a number of different hosts. The 'problem' host is the only windows system being backed up (via rsyncd); all other hosts are linux (also being backed up via rsyncd). When I look in the web interface and browse backups for any of the other hosts - the 'fill behaviour' appears to be normal:appropriate. Certainly this 'problem host' seems to be quite consistent - it pulled ~1.8gb of data last night in 'fresh backed up files' and those - I can see fine. It just fails to 'fill' everything that wasn't in the latest backup. Also to be 'proper' - I did apt-get update and upgrade to bring the host up to date for patching. (Debian 6.0.2->6.0.5; backuppc also increased a minor rev number but still is not the absolute latest version from what I can tell). This doesn't appear to have changed behaviour/symptoms in any way. If anyone has other thoughts on things to check // possible 'likely causes' -- pointers are appreciated!
