Hi again,

I still seem to have some problems running backup from multipe servers at once.

At the moment my master.conf is this:

bank:
    /data
    /data/server2/backupu
    /data/server2
    /data/server1
    /data/server1/backupu

exclude:
    lost+found/
    core
    *~
    .nfs*
Runall:
    server2/backupu/root 22:00
    server2/root 22:00
    server1/backupu/root 22:00
    server1/root 22:00
expire-default: +3 days
expire-rule:
#       MIN HR    DOM MON       DOW  STRFTIME_FMT
    *   *     *   *         1    +15 days
#    *   *     1-7 *         1    +1 year
#    *   *     1-7 1,4,7,10  1
    *   10-20 *   *         *    +4 days
#    *   *     *   *         2-7  +3 days

and here's my crontab -e
10      22      * * * dirvish-expire --vault server1/backupu/root
30      22      * * * dirvish-expire --vault server1/root
45      22      * * * dirvish-expire --vault server2/backupu/root
0      23      * * * dirvish-expire --vault server2/root
0     1      * * * dirvish --vault server2/backupu/root
0    1      * * * dirvish --vault server1/backupu/root
0       3     * * * dirvish --vault server2/root
0       4      * * * dirvish --vault server1/root

The default.conf should be correct.

Now, for some reason when I do the command manually(for example dirvish --vault 
server1/backupu/root it starts running without any problems. For some reason 
the command executed via cron does not start at all. I can see from the syslog 
that the command has been started but it doesn't keep running. I kept an eye on 
the dedicated backup servers top-command and the servers top-command which I 
was backupping and neither of those showed any signgs of rsync. Also there were 
no new directories created under /data/serverx/backupu/root/. When executed 
manually, it starts running normally and the directories are created.

Any ideas? At the moment I'm running the default debian cronjob script which 
comes with dirvish and it runs smoothly.
