Checking for connection type/speed is useful. On a somewhat related issue, I backup from home to a network device. When I'm away from home the device is not available. I put up with the error messages "backup started/backup failed", but it would be nicer if I could say "not being able to reach the backup device is normal, be totally silent in that situation".
Of course, for all cases (drive not available, slow network connection, or anything else), it would be nice to be notified if no backups had been possible for a week so I could fix the problem or change the requirements. -- [Feature request] Separate backup frequency from crontab frequency https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/601579 You received this bug notification because you are a member of NSsbackup team, which is subscribed to nssbackup. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~nssbackup-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~nssbackup-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
