Hello again, After the upgrade to BPC 4.2.1 the General Server Information and specifically Other info started showing numbers like this: Pool is 721.67+250.21GiB comprising 2020177+1335190 files and 16512+4369 directories (as of 2018-10-25 01:44), Pool hashing gives 0+376 repeated files with lon

Alexey, BackupPC's archive functionality shouldn't create extra hardlinks to the pool. Can you tell us specifically where else you found the mystery hardlinks to the V3 pool files? If you manually did something like cp -a or rsync -H to make a copy of one of the client backup trees than that cou

I'm not a perl guy, but does anyone know how embedded the perl rsync is? Could it be replaced with the system rsync? Gerald On 2016-05-10 01:12 PM, Moorcroft, Mark (ARC-TS)[Analytical Mechanics Associates, INC.] wrote: > Personally, I have only one fundamental issue with BackuPC 3.x, that we r

Re: [BackupPC-users] Status on new BackupPC v4

Personally, I have only one fundamental issue with BackuPC 3.x, that we rely upon to back up all of our linux clients (including a 3000 core cluster). The problem is that it replaces modern rsync with some ancient embedded version. If that one thing could be "patched" I would hardly care about

I could be completely wrong but, I have v4.0alpha and v3.31(?) running on two different machines and both are just doing their job. Backing up clients at their locations. Backuppc (IMO) has always been a simple frontend for rsync with some scripts that guide rsync (and other programs) to store ba

Hi Michael! When it will become too mature, it will fall down! The World outside IS evolving! Today BPC is a great piece of software and I use it and I like it, but in a few year without development it will be good for a place in a OSS Museum! Regards FCR SIGNATURE

Sad news. My personal opinion is the Project is effectively dead because none (interested) has write access to the official repositories. There are several clones floating around (several on github, including a semi-official one), but without a central aggregation point there's no way this can e

Hi all, I installed a new BPC-server yesterday and noticed on http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/, that the version 4 is still alpha and has been so since 2013. Might I inquire on how the work is progressing? Is anybody in the know perhaps? Thanks. -- BW, Sorin ---
