So, do that patch, run fsck, let it correct some error and it'll do a full database upload. Then you can either mount it and use it for at least 30 hours (since it does an automatic metadata backup every 6 hours, it'll have made 5 good snapshots). Or do 5 cycles of mount the file system, make some change to it (like add or remove 1 file,), unmount it, so the last 5 snapshots are good. Then remove that patch. There is code in s3ql to remove those 64KB blocks when they're no longer needed for any recent snapshots. Oh yeah and once you remove the patch at the end, then run a fsck.s3ql --force to verify your remote metadata is actually good again. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "s3ql" group.
