One small clarification on the disk space: You said that we have

allocated
repo size by 1/2, or add twice as many disks as we currently have.
I was talking about using the unused space in the mounted volumes (aka
the repo).
Blabby rsync's it's 91 GB onto bashful (/srv/fossology/repository/
bashful/blabby), bashful rsync's it's 93 GB onto blabby. Happy and
sneezy do the same. Shifty and dopey do the same. You end up with a
duplicate repo in the storage we are currently have mounted.
So this is all using the same SAN storage? What is the point of the
repo backup then? I'm guessing that we are using a raid level to
support a single or double drive failure. Is that the case? What
failure mode are you trying to protect from?
