I ran into an issue with backuppc (Debian/sid, last upgraded 4/27/12),
and I'm trying to figure out what the problem is. Nagios alerted today
that the /var/lib/backuppc (500GB) filesystem was critical. I logged
in and found the following:
/dev/mapper/vg00-backuppc ext4 523733076 496248972
I know it is bad form to respond to one's own post, but I was digging
around in my Munin graphs, and noticed that the filesystem skyrocked
from about 70% to 100% late on the 26th or early on the 27th. I have
included both the 4-week pool graph from the backup machine and the
weekly graph from my
I need to do a restore in the morning. If I start the restore before the
normally-scheduled backup, will that block the backup until the restore is
complete? I would think it would be a bad thing to try to run the backup while
the restore is in progress.
First, thanks for doing this.
I've had the original post bookmarked for quite some time (years, it seems)
with plans to implement, and this simplifies the process quite a bit.
Performance is much better than rsync-over-autofs-smb (for any number of
reasons).
