So Im temporarily using another machines for backups until I sort out my rdiff-backup version mismatch issues between client and server.

I am wondering if somebody has had experience moving rdiff-backup backup data - the entire directory - between machines. so i can roll all backup data to a new server and continue incremental backups?


cd /destination/directory &&
        ssh source-host 'cd /source/directory && tar cps .' | tar xpsv

If you have both filesystems mounted locally:

cp -dRpv /sorce/directory /dest/directory

That seems to have worked for us!
