I have to redo an offsite backup server running since 2015. The OS disk
died.
I am fine with just making new backups, what I really do not have time
for is reinventing the client backup configs.
Can anyone help me?
I found https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/issues/132 , so I know I am
not alone.
The server is f29 now and I installed BackupPC-4.3 rpm.
I have a very simple one directory backup that I can share. Below
boxXYZ.pl ran fine a week ago, before the OS disk died. The offsite
backup server is backing up two windows 10 boxes which where configured
with much pain and anguish. I hate windows. Like I said I am remote and
can not reconfigure the windows desktops, I can only make the linux
work. If push comes to shove I will remove the rpm and try a tar ball
install of the older software .. but I really hope it does not come to that.
::= cat boxXYZ.pl
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -l UserOne $host $rsyncPath
$argList+';
$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [
10
];
$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 14;
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {
'*' => [
'/cygdrive/c/userOneprogs/CalenderScope2.6/Data'
]
};
$Conf{XferLogLevel} = 2;
I tried
/usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump -v -f boxXYZ
with
$Conf{RsyncBackupPCPath} = "/usr/bin/rsync_bpc";
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{RsyncClientPath} = "sudo /usr/bin/rsync";
$Conf{RsyncSshArgs} = ['-e', '$sshPath -q -x -l UserOne $host $rsyncPath
$argList+'];
$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [
10
];
$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 14;
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = {
'*' => [
'/cygdrive/c/userOneprogs/CalenderScope2.6/Data'
]
};
$Conf{XferLogLevel} = 2;
and the output is attached.
I did some sanitizing .. if things look squirrely.
Please and Thank you
