Yes, they look fine. Maybe try "df -i" on the server side, too? I don't
know if inodes map 1:1 between the NFS server and the client.

(The word wrap destroyed that, but the report for the LVM indicates 4% inodes in use.)


Does rdiff-backup create any or many files on / during a run?

I don't think so, but if you want to be sure, run rdiff-backup under strace.

I'll maybe try that.

Thank you very much for the clues, which I think have provided some evidence for thinking the fs looks ok, with these reports, and with the static test of a 4GB iso transfer.

I may also try to run a backup with some enhanced logging. I'd particularly like to see what rdiff-backup calculates the next increment to be - perhaps it thinks it has 'lost' some tranche of data and needs to copy or diff it again.

regards, Ron
