Some info about my setup:
* The servers PID is 1865, on host backuppc, version 4.4.0, started at
4/20 18:08.
* This status was generated at 11/3 11:31.
* The configuration was last loaded at 11/3 09:22.
* PCs will be next queued at 11/3 12:00.
* Other info:
o 2 pending backup requests from last scheduled wakeup,
o 0 pending user backup requests,
o 0 pending command requests,
o Pool is 1404.19+0.00GiB comprising 8463345+0 files and 16512+10
directories (as of 10/25 01:33),
o Pool hashing gives 0+0 repeated files with longest chain 0+0,
o Nightly cleanup removed 302434+0 files of size 74.66+0.00GiB
(around 10/25 01:33),
o Pool file system was recently at 8% (11/3 11:25), today's max is
8% (11/3 01:00) and yesterday's max was 8%.
o Pool file system inode usage was recently at 8% (11/3 11:25),
today's max is 8% (11/3 01:00) and yesterday's max was 8%.
What might be the reason that the deduplication stats are zero?
Note:
Pool hashing gives 0+0 repeated files with longest chain 0+0,
Obviously deduplication is working because:
* 69 full backups of total size 6081.09GiB (prior to pooling and
compression),
* 123 incr backups of total size 10142.87GiB (prior to pooling and
compression).
And my total pool is 1.4T. So deduplication is definitely happening.

Hi Christopher,
Thanks for the kind response.
I found the possibly culprit log entry that I attached to this thread
just earlier.
2022-11-03 08:08:49 Can't run BackupPC_zipCreate while BackupPC_dump
is running on host xyz
Thanks for the note on file storage. The empty paths got me really
worked up and panicked that we had no backups. Perhaps I remembered
incorrectly from the last time I touched the filesystem about where
this stuff is stored. It was a really scary and strange behavior to
download an empty zip file as well as an empty tar file when I tried
to restore.
It could be an artifact of the version I'm running (4.4.0), or maybe
it's a lack of error checking or a bug that allows a download of an
empty zip with no error or warnings about the cause to the user.
I'm going to monitor this and collect some more details and see if
this issue is still happening after all backup jobs are complete.

Hi Mark,
It is normal that there are no files. The files are in the pool or
cpool, not the host folder.
But why you are getting an empty file from the restore is not clear.
Please help us helping you and provide logs from the backup you try
to restore and some general infos about your setup.
Cheers
Christopher

Hello!
This is the most recently finished full backup [51] for
/etc/ssl/private
When I restore or download this file it's 0 bytes! Not the
reported 1428
And this is my backup path on the backuppc
/home/backuppc/pc/comm-nyc1.somethingorother.local/51/f%2f/fetc/fssl/fprivate
total 24K

There's no files in there!! Just directories! Everything is missing
And it looks like the *entire* backup system looks like this. I
didn't even know that my backups are completely broken and
missing all files.
