at this point i'm using blackout to suspend backuppc scheduling, and via a cron script invoking BackupPC_dump for each host (right after updating its list of shares to match its current set of kvm guests, and using DumpPreShareCmd to snapshot and guestmount the guest storage for each "share").
this seems like it may be working well, tho i'm curious if as a result anything of import, such as BackupPC_link, might be getting missed? Because, before, logs such as /var/lib/backuppc/log/LOG.8.z mentioned "Running BackupPC_link" for each host, eg: >2022-04-26 04:06:26 Started incr backup on avocado (pid=1029206, share=/mnt/^BACKUPPC/g193) >2022-04-26 05:02:38 Started incr backup on avocado (pid=1029206, share=/) >2022-04-26 05:13:49 Finished incr backup on avocado >2022-04-26 05:13:49 *Running BackupPC_link* avocado (pid=1030494) >2022-04-26 05:14:08 Finished avocado (BackupPC_link avocado) but now logs such as /var/lib/backuppc/log/LOG.1.z no longer show any mention of backups invoked via BackupPC_dump. if BackupPC_link, and/or other things, are being omitted now, what is the result? how or what might i look at to see more? tia, greg
