hi Ged,

That's like saying your car shouldn't stop when all the coolant leaks
out of the radiator.  You had a temperature gauge.  You were supposed
to keep an eye on it.  You failed to do that.  Now, instead of a can
of Radweld, you need a new engine.  It's entirely your own fault.

so to be clear i use :

- a filesystem with cow and checksuming
- a maintenance tool that check the FS on a regular basis that scrub the 
complete fs in 6 weeks time max. ( a % each week )
- thats the case on the source and on the destination most of the time (some 
sources are in ext4 but less and less)
- i monitor any errors to a zabbix server that alert me if there is any alerts 
on the FS side and not any alerts show up.

I have seen some rsync crash mainly in OOM situations and network can fail too.


You seem to be asking BackupPC to be a filesystem repair tool. That's
a completely different animal, way beyond the scope of a comparatively
simple scheme for copying files, and unless the latest Pacific Bubble
'AI'[*] turns out to be more than a bubble there never will be any way
in general, to repair a broken filesystem reliably and automatically.

not really.

i dont ask anything special, i ask the community if there is a way, if we 
detect an issue, to tell backuppc to correct it :)
