Re: [BackupPC-users] Backups -- too big

Re: [BackupPC-users] Backup only new file(s)
Mirco Piccin escribió:
Hi all,
i have to backup a folder (using smb).
Every day (except sunday) a procedure stores in this folder a 120GB file.
The name of the file is the day name.
So, in a week, i have 6 different files generated (about 720 GB).
Every week the files are overwritten by the procedure.
I'd like to backup only the newest file, and not all the folder.
The problem is that i suppose i must have a full backup of the folder
(720 GB), because of $Conf{FullKeepCnt} must be = 1, plus
incremental backup.
So, configuring:
$Conf{FullPeriod} = 6.97;
$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 6;
i'll have :
on sunday the full backup - 720 GB
on monday the incremental backup - 720 GB (the full backup) plus 120
GB (the new monday file)
on tuesday the incremental backup - 840 GB (the full backup plus
incremental) plus 120 GB (the new tuesday file)
and so on, for a total of 1440 GB (the double of the effective disk
space needed).
And again, sunday BackupPC will move 720 GB of files, and so on.
Is there a way to backup only the new file (maybe playing with
$Conf{IncrLevels}), without a full?
Or a way to optimize it?
Thanks
Regards
M
Hi,
I think is better that you changer your xfermetoth to rsyncd. rsyncd
only copy the new files.
Also you can change your configuration in $Conf{FullKeepCnt} = 1,
because you only need the last copy and $Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 1 or 2;

Both of these are wrong - they start with a space. BackupPC doesn't

You need something like:

$shareName+ --totals';
though I would like to point out that configuring sudo to allow execution of
'env' is effectively allowing arbitrary commands as root. You need to have
something like
backuppcALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/env LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/tar -c *
in /etc/sudoers to be fairly secure (you might want to specify more or less of
the command line, depending on what you want; more to limit it to a specific
directory, less to allow restores with the same sudoers entry).
If you use something like '/usr/bin/env LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/sudo ...' that
probably won't work, depending on which environment variables your sudo
propagates and which it doesn't.

The backup isn't successful (since no files were dumped for one (or more)
shares).
Please look at the XferLOG.bad file (which should be quite short) and
if the answer isn't apparent, email the contents of the file (or at
least the first few lines) to this thread. You should also explain
which XferMethod you are using and the corresponding Share and

Mark Do you have any virtual machine? If you have anyone, the vm ocuped 4gb for example and if you modificated anything in the vm , when you make an incremental backup , BackupPc copy again the vm's image. This isn't only for image i referer any file so big , that is modify and the backuppc think, it's a new file !!! ooohhh i have to copy!! jeje.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Incremental dumps hanging with 'Can't get rsync digests' 'Can't call method isCached'
If any one is interested, in my company we have a new solution for a NAS, SAN, Backups, etc, ... We make a new product bearNAS it's a pendrive that has a BackupPc and an Openfiler, all integrate. Only you need simple machine with all the hard disk that you want and usb port. This solution is cheap and easy for work and permit you do a lot of things, clusters, bonding, lvm, iscsi, You can speak with me, [EMAIL PROTECTED] or my boss , Joe Bordes, [EMAIL PROTECTED] We want colobarate with this comunity and with others, for this don't dude for ask us.

For me, using NAS is very economical given the cost of drives and the existence of cheap embedded Linux NAS devices. Maybe I am missing an easy better alternative. I'm not sure what a NAS costs these days, but my BackupPC server is a white box desktop-class machine with SATA drives in software RAID 1. It cost me $600. It runs the server software and stores the backups locally. You can keep it cheap by using a mini/micro ATX motherboard -- they've usually got onboard video and onboard LAN, and you're not likely to need much in the way of PCI slots. Just make sure the motherboard has plenty of room for expansion in terms of RAM and hard disks. Well I bought a dns-323 for about $130 and got 2 1-TB Seagate drives for $149 each. So under $450 for a 1TB of RAID-1 backup. Also it uses only a few watts of power (and even less when the disks power down since I mount root off of a small surplus usb stick). Also the dns-323 is extremely well built (metal, solid, not platic) and small - not much bigger than the 2 drives themselves side-to-side) But I agree that one could do well also by going the white box way... - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/ - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
[BackupPC-users] How to find the fisical files to remove?
Hi, I have a PC to make a backups with BackupPC, but the problem is that the hard disk si full and backuppc can't do more backupps. I was checking the configuration of the rsyncd in my clients and i saw that backuppc have to copy a (mp3, iso,...). When i saw this, i excluded this files in a winxp.pl. Now i need to remove this files (mp3, iso,), i used BackupPC_deleteBackup.sh but i can't remove only this files , it remove the number o backup, and if i do ./BackupPC_deleteBackup.sh -c pcWinxp -d 411 -f , i haven`t the real free space that i must have. Are there any way to remove only the files i want? not only the links, the fisical file too. Thanks for your help, and sorry for my english. JPL TSOLUCIO S.L Omar Ll.

After you remove data from the backuppc/pc/hostname/num/ directory, you also need to run the BackupPC_nightly which will remove the files from the pool/cpool directory as needed. You browse the directories in the backup folders and delete random files from the backup, or something like: cd backuppc/pc/host rm -vi `find . |grep .iso$` Which will delete all the iso files for that host. Then you can run the nightly script, and it will actually free up the space.
