Re: [BackupPC-users] Tricks for Win 10 SMB Backup?
What is the value of $Conf{SmbClientFullCmd} and what is the smb command that is being run (see the XferLOG file)?

Re: [BackupPC-users] cpool directory twice as big as reported and missing pool files reported by BackupPC_refCountUpdate
Cody, There were some bugs in earlier versions of 4.x that could cause missing pool files. But they have been fixed for some time. How did you determine the cpool directory size (eg, du -sh)? At any point did you run backups with compression off? Here's how to find which backup is referencing a particular digest: - pick an md5 digrest (32 hex characters) that got an error - take the first 2 hex digits and and it with 0xfe (ie, round down to the next even number, eg: 0x77 -> 0x76; 0xaf -> 0xae). Call those two digits XY - run BackupPC_poolCntPrint TOPDIR/pc/*/*/refCnt/poolCnt.1.XY | less - use less to search for the hex digest (ie, type "/" then paste the 32 digit digest, then hit return) - then search upwards to find the file name (ie, type "?Pool Ref", then hit return - based on the file name, you can find out the host name and backup number To find which directory / file in the specific backup references that digest, you would need to use BackupPC_ls -R -h HOST -n BackupNUM -s Share / | egrep HexDigest Craig On Thu, Jul 5, 2018 at 7:32 PM Cody Jackson wrote: > Hi all, > > BackupPC reports that my pool is about 800GB, but my cpool directory is > 1.6TB. > > When I try running BackupPC_refCountUpdate, I get about 350 errors > similar to: > > BackupPC_refCountUpdate: missing pool file [md5 hash] count 1 > > Questions: > > * Are these issues related? > * How can I find out which computers have references to these hashes > that are missing? > * Why is my pool so big? > > For the pool size, I did recently change the compress level (going from > 3 to 7), but the older backups should have fallen off the radar by now > and been removed. > > Cheers, > > -C > > > > -- > Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most > engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot > ___ > BackupPC-users mailing list > BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net > List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users > Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net > Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/ > -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot___ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List:https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki:http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
Re: [BackupPC-users] Xfer errors
Pete, Can you send me more lines from the XferLOG file for a full backup? Ideally the entire log file, or otherwise several hundred lines before and after the errors.

Re: [BackupPC-users] Old data in Windows backups
Let's start with your 4.1.5 BackupPC. Does your $Conf{RsyncArgs} include the --delete option? If not, add it. If so, I'd be curious to see a portion of the XferLOG file for a full backup of a directory where old files remain.

[BackupPC-users] Tricks for Win 10 SMB Backup?
Unable to connect to a new Windows 10 client via SMB for backup. Command-line testing with 'smbclient' works ok: $ smbclient -L new-pelican -Ubackup%xxx Sharename Type Comment - --- ADMIN$ Disk Remote Admin C Disk C$ Disk Default share E Disk E$ Disk Default share IPC$ IPC Remote IPC Users Disk SMB1 disabled -- no workgroup available Note the last line of the output above ("SMB1 disabled..."). I can login with 'smbclient' and interactively display files in the shares. BackupPC, however, won't connect. 2018-07-27 15:07:03 Backup failed on new-pelican (No files dumped for share C$) Googling the SMB1 reference leads to suggestions to add the following to smb.conf: client min protocol = SMB2 client max protocol = SMB3 I added this and restarted Samba. This doesn't resolve the issue. Other suggestions?
