I read about a patch to apply to GeneralInfo.pm but that patch is arready apply on my installed version (3.1.0-9ubuntu1) If i run the rrdtool command inside GeneralInfo.pm, this run perfect and generate the png image, but the file pool.rrd on log directory dont show information, the dump of pool.rrd is: user@server:~# rrdtool dump /var/log/backuppc/pool.rrd http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/rrdtool.dtd";> 0003 86400 1325109605 ckb GAUGE 172800 0.00e+00 NaN 0 0.00e+00 0 AVERAGE 1 5.00e-01 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 NaN 0 NaN ...(same values) NaN 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 0.00e+00 if the server backup since 1 week ago, should show any information, i guess. that is a bug, is a normal behavior? cheers. -- Carlos Albornoz C.

Try "ls -lh /bin/bash". I would believe it is a softlink to /bin/dash. To resolve the problem you can install bash (e.g. apt-get install bash) and run BackupPC_deleteBackup again. Another way is to reduce the amount of stored old backups. See $Conf{FullKeepCnt} as well as $Conf{IncrKeepCnt}. But I would propose to add disk capacity. Because of pooling (file deduplication) by backuppc I would believe that your storage requirements will be reduced by removing hosts but not by removing backups. br Matthias -- Don't Panic -- Write once.
