Apologies if I'm hijacking this thread, but there's two things I don't
understand...
Firstly, what is the difference between running nightly manually vs it being
run by the daemon? It performs the same tasks either way, no? So, shouldn't
the inverse be true as well? In other words, if
In my experience, just removing a server doesn’t delete the files, nor reduce
disk space on the system, even when you’ve gone into the BackupPC/pc/host/
dir and deleted the dir(s) that have a number corresponding to the backup you
want to delete. The best way to remove “orphaned” files (i.e.,

Thanks Mark.
From the zfs man page for zol it looks like the default compression is lzjb,
same as other zfs implementations. I generally use lz4 which is basically lzjb
I too am using ZFS, and I can honestly say that ZFS works great, up to a point.
rsync does seem to take up an inordinate amount of resources, but in a smaller
shop like mine, it's been tolerable. I think it would work in a larger shop
too, but the system resource requirements (CPU/RAM) would
even higher.
Thanks,

I ran into this problem recently as well, change your paths from C:/rsyncd/* to
/cygdrive/c/rsyncd. Older versions accepted the windows paths, but newer
versions prefer/insist on the unix-styled path.

I've not personally tried this, so someone else who has can comment on whether
this would work or not, but it seems to me that if you were to rename your
backups to the new servername, that they would show up for the new server
accordingly. These would be the locations that you would need to
I don't mean to bring up another RTFM moment, but I've searched around, and I
haven't found the location for enabling/disabling the pooling. The compression
option I've found, but not pooling.
