Hi, yesterday I noticed a sytem freeze of my grml HD installation on my Thinkpad. After a little time of puzzling I detected a full (100%) root partition :/ I thougt: Who the f*** has filled up the (before) remaining 2 GB of space? -> It was a default enabled? backup job (backup-manager?) who backed up /home /etc and some other stuff in /backup :(
In principle (automatic) backups is a good cause and this default enabled backup job is well meaning but as we see in this example it could be problematic. Backing up on same physical disk doesn't make lots of sense anyway. Conclusio: I won't enable such probably space/resource consuming automatic tasks per default. p.s.: I certainly have a (central) backup solution via server ;) -- Regards Robert _______________________________________________ Grml mailing list - [email protected] http://lists.mur.at/mailman/listinfo/grml join #grml on irc.freenode.org grml-devel-blog: http://grml.supersized.org/
