Question #133863 on Duplicity changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/133863
Allo proposed the following answer: I had the same question. it would not be 4 days, but over 20 hours at best rate, so i can expect my daily backup may start before the full backup is uploaded, because it may become more than 24 hours to finish the upload. my Ideas: maybe using flock(1): flock -w 1 duplicity --bla --blub #if a lock from another running job exists, wait 1 second and stop without backup duplicity full /tobackup /remote/path/new-full; rm -r /remote/path/backup mv /remote/path/new-full /remote/path/backup and incremental backups to /remote/path/backup but with --name "bla", duplicity should check for other instances running on job "bla" and stop, when it finds another instance. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of duplicity-team, which is an answer contact for Duplicity. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
