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
