As promised in the other thread, I did find a couple of repeated file errors
out of my dozen hosts and tens of millions of backup files.
There are exactly 2 such errors (each repeated twice due to an rsync 'retry')
that appear on every full backup on one of my Windoze hosts.
The errors occur even with the use of a shadow copy.
I was in the middle of reporting the error which shows up as:
sync: read errors mapping
"/cygdrive/c/shadow/c-20201228-230000/Users/User1/<path-to-file>
retry recv >fc........ rwx------ 197610, 197610 3259696
Users/User1/<path-to-file>
rsync: read errors mapping
"/cygdrive/c/shadow/c-20201228-230000/Users/User1/<path-to-file>
same recv >f......... rwx------ 197610, 197610 3259696
Users/User1/<path-to-file>
ERROR: Users/User1/<path-to-file> failed verification -- update discarded.
But then I decided to check the files themselves... and it turns out that the
read error exists on the original file system:
$ ls -al /c/Users/User1/<path-to-file>
-rwx------+ 1 User1 User1 3259696 Jul 22 2013 <file name>
$ md5sum /c/Users/User1/<path-to-file>
md5sum: <file name> Input/output error
So, for me at least, all the bug chasing last Spring/Summer plus the use of
snapshots/shadow copies has seemingly chased away all the bugs...
