Re: [BackupPC-users] since upgrading to 4.0 I can no longer do full backups
I'm glad that it's working now.
For OSX, the default rsync is really old. On High Sierra 10.13.4, it's
rsync 2.6.9, circa 2006. I strongly recommend installing a recent version
in, eg, /usr/local/bin.

Re: [BackupPC-users] since upgrading to 4.0 I can no longer do full backups
Ok so I can report my windows10 machines are completing full backups now
without any other changes - THANK YOU :)
My mac needs more work based on the way I have the daemon set up. I will
report back some time tomorrow, once I have had chance to work on it.
Thanks again, I really appreciate your help and backup pc is the best, have
used it for ever.

Re: [BackupPC-users] since upgrading to 4.0 I can no longer do full backups
On your client the rsyncd.conf file should have a setting such as "charset
= utf-8". You'll need to make sure rsyncd reloads the rsyncd.conf file
before retesting.
If it still fails, the next thing to try is to remove --protect-args
from $Conf{RsyncArgs}.

Re: [BackupPC-users] since upgrading to 4.0 I can no longer do full backups
Ok, you are using rsyncd, so $Conf{RsyncSshArgs} doesn't matter.
It seems that when you upgraded to 4.0 the config file was not updated (or
perhaps these are per-host settings, which don't get updated during an
upgrade). The correct settings should be:
$Conf{RsyncFullArgsExtra} = [
'--checksum',
];
#
# Arguments to rsync for backup. Do not edit the first set unless you
# have a good understanding of rsync options.
#
$Conf{RsyncArgs} = [
'--super',
'--recursive',
'--protect-args',
'--numeric-ids',
'--perms',
'--owner',
'--group',
'-D',
'--times',
'--links',
'--hard-links',
'--delete',

Please send the first part of the log file with the full rsync command
(feel free to redact confidential arguments, but maintain any special
characters etc).
Also send this client's settings for
$Conf{RsyncSshArgs}, $Conf{RsyncClientPath}, $Conf{RsyncBackupPCPath},
$Conf{RsyncFullArgsExtra}
and $Conf{RsyncArgs}.

Re: [BackupPC-users] how can I identify in which backup a certain file is?
Perhaps scouring the XferLOG for lines marked 'new' would help?

It is possible to run BackupPC_nightly by hand.

[BackupPC-users] Out of inodes, how to recover?
Backing up a single desktop computer, BackupPC host ran out of inodes at
15 million inodes used. Reading old messages from this list I was
surprised to learn BackupPC uses only one (or two?) inodes per backed up
file, no matter how many hard links are used. I am thus at a loss to
explain how come 15 million inodes is not enough for backing up this
single desktop computer.
But to recover from this situation, I plan to reduce the number of full
backups to keep, that is set $Conf{FullKeepCnt} to something lower.
Question: The host is already out of inodes on backuppc partition, can
it still remove old backups now obsolete since lower FullKeepCnt? And
old files are removed and inodes made available? I assume this happens
during nightly cleanup runs, so I have to wait until next day to find out.
From what I learned from reading discussions, copying the pool to
larger disk with more inodes is not feasible. Also it seems to me
converting the current ext4 filesystem to some other filesystem that
does not have a hard limit for inodes is iffy. So it is time to start
planning a new backuppc host and use lower bytes-per-inode or use a
filesystem with dynamic inodes.
