I'd love to see this also. Primarily, this would be good for initial back-ups that need to be over the wire, and so can take days in some cases. It also would be of value for large jobs that fail part way through (network goes down, source server crashes, disk runs out of space, etc.). I waste too much time re-backing up files that I picked up successfully before the job failed. In a related vein, I'd like to see failed back-ups be added to the *.hist file, probably with a flag to indicate they shouldn't be used as a basis for subsequent back-ups. The reasoning here is that I frequently run into a scenario in which a job sometime back in history has failed part way through and is now taking up disk space, but will never expire. If the failed job were in the .hist file, dirvish-expire would at least clean it up on-time when I've forgotten to. -Brian Martin _______________________________________________ Dirvish mailing list [email protected] http://www.dirvish.org/mailman/listinfo/dirvish
