I got thrown into this and I am basically a Linux novice I am used to other
backups solutions such as symantec, veeam, and vranger.
before my time here this was and is the current setup Backups run from location
A over ssh to Location B 800 miles away.
I want to restore a backup from Location B to location A to verify it works.
I have built a new Centos 6.4 vm and installed rdiff. from my readings this
seems to be the correct restore command "rdiff-backup -r now
rob.as...@182.16x.xx.xx::/data/bl1/bl1 /rdiff-backup-data" I assume this is
where the data is kept but I am not positive. below i get the following error,
all other folders give me "could not find rdiff-backup repository"
What does this the below error mean any input would be grateful so I can
complete the full restore.
