Looking to finally move to V4. Would love to eat my cake-and-have-it-too by eliminating all those nasty linked pool files while preserving all my old V3 backups.
In the past I have done quite a bit of utility hacking into the V3 pool and tree structures so I am aware of the complexities at least in V3 but I have no experience or knowledge of how trees and metadata are stored in V4. Has anyone written a clean migration utility that copies all backups over (not just the latest)? In a sense I have written half of it in the past in my BackupPC_copyPcPool.pl.jjk that allows one to copy over BackupPC V3 archives by creating a text file download of the backup trees and then a simple copy of the pool. But I am not sure I have the time to write a new utility that would dump this back into V4 format while converting the pool structure to md5sum titling and organization. _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
