Hi,
A backuppc server backs up about 85 hosts to backup.
Everyday about 10 hosts are not backed up. They are like ignored.
Those hosts seems like they are not checked for backup at all (during
several wakeups).
Long time user of backuppc, for years, I cannot find out the reason.
My first wakeup is at 13.00 (to run the "nightly" jobs) and then I have
several wakeups after midnight.
All our pings are always successful (replaced ping with /bin/echo).
The hosts that are ignored mention that they have been last checked at
13.00 (no backup to be done at 13:00 since 13:00 is only for nightly
runs), but then they seem completely ignored at several wakeups after
midnight (where backup should be made).
Here is an example from status.pl on an ignored host:
(now it is GMT: Wednesday, January 25, 2023 8:58:48 AM)
"samplehost1" => {
"startTime" => 1674558002, # GMT: Tuesday, January 24, 2023 11:00:02 AM
"activeJob" => 0,
"aliveCnt" => 32,
"state" => "Status_idle",
"userReq" => undef,
"reason" => "Reason_nothing_to_do",
"deadCnt" => 0,
"type" => "incr",
"endTime" => "",
"lastGoodBackupTime" => 1674540749 #GMT: Tuesday, January 24, 2023
6:12:29 AM
},
Those ignored hosts are also not mentioned at all in the LOG file.
Not the same hosts are ignored every day.
