Hi Bas,

I'm using rdiff-backup to backup serveral internet hosts. Now I'm trying
to backup the rdiff-backup data to another server on a different
location so that when a server burns down or a nuclear meltdown occurs I
can recover from the copied directory.
I tried to copy the directory with rsync -caz /dir remote:/dir, but when
I try to get an incremental list on the remote I get this error
rdiff-backup -l /dir
Fatal Error: Previous backup to /data/backup/garisson_home/vsic/vsic01 seems
to have failed.
Rerun rdiff-backup with the --check-destination-dir option to revert directory
to state before unsuccessful session.
Did you run this command while an rdiff-backup process was writing to the
directory? Did you get any errors from rsync? Are you sure that the last
rdiff-backup completed successfully? What does "rdiff-backup -l /dir" on
the original destination directory (not the rsync copy) report?
Cheers, Chris.
