Three tries at backing up the root directory failed, each time ending
with a lost connection message.
The first two failures were to backup the entire desktop excluding /proc
(167 Bb). The third excluded two large directories, /data (116 Gb) and
/storage (18 Gb), as well as /proc.
Next I tried backing up just /storage and this may have succeeded.
After running for some time the root prompt reappeared, no messages, no
statistics. No rdiff-backup log in /var/log. No session_statistic file
that I can find.
All of the backup tries installed files in the mirror directories,
/bkup/desktop and /bkup/storage.
System description:
Desktop with Debian Wheezy operating system. rdiff-backup 1.2.8-7 amd64
RaspberryPi with Wheezy-Raspbrian operating system, usb 1 Tb hard
drive, rdiff-backup 1.2.8-7 armhf
Any advice as to what might cause the desktop backup to fail? Why no
log file and no session_statistics?
Tom
