Hi Pete
Since dirvish uses hard links, the regular command will show you the
size of each snapshot an not just the size of the differences. Hard
links mean, that the file is actually really in each snapshot, thus
the output of du is completely correct.
Try it with
du -hsc *
This will give you the size of the first image and then the
incremental differences for the following snapshots.
Cheers,
Florian

Hi,
Could someone help me to understand the following:
Debian etch package of dirvish 1.2.1-1
/backup/selene# du -h --max-depth=1
29G ./20070227
29G ./20070228
29G ./20070301
20K ./20070302
20K ./20070303
12K ./dirvish
20K ./20070304
22G ./20070305
107G .
The machine in question should only have a small number changes, I
cant
understand why I'm creating whole new images.
My master.conf looks like:
bank:
/backup
image-default: %Y%m%d
log: gzip
index: gzip
exclude:
/var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb
/usr/src/**/*.o
lost+found/
With /backup/selene/dirvish/default.conf:
client: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
tree: /
xdev: 0
index: gzip
exclude:
/var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb
/sys/*
/proc/*
/backup is a symlink to /media/usbdisk/backup/, a 250 gig drive
formatted with ext3 in a usb caddy.
Thanks in advance.
