 For example do you have the remote user set to 
 root in the lbackup configuration eg : 
 sshRemoteUser=root

Yes.

# SSH Settings
 sshRemoteUser=root

 (15) Which user on your system is running the backup?

Local admin user, but running lbackup with sudo.  (not scheduled yet.)

Thanks,

Andrew

Re: [lbackup-discussion] rsync errors: device not configured

2010-04-28 Thread henri 

Three additional questions : 

(11) When you run LBackup from the command line, do you see the following 
output towards the start of the output : 

 Hard Links Enabled
 Using custom rsync : v3...



(12) Please confirm the path to where the custom version of rsync has been 
installed. If you used Mike's instructions then it is probably installed at : 
/usr/local/bin/rsync


(13) Provided the path to rsync (on both the server and the client) is 
/usr/local/bin/rsync, please confirm that the following options are are 
present within the lbackup configuration file :
 
  ssh_rsync_path_remote=/usr/local/bin/rsync   # ( Use custom version of 
 rsync - OSX - Client)
  ssh_rsync_path_local=/usr/local/bin/rsync# ( Use custom version of 
 rsync - OSX - Server)


 (8) Please report on the size of the backup set by issuing the following 
 command : 
  du -hs /Volumes/Drobo_HD/lbackups/theserver.Homes/Section.0/
 
 sudo du -mkh -d 0 /Volumes/Drobo_RAID/lbackups/mb-docs.Homes/Section.0/

Sure that should work.

Re: [lbackup-discussion] rsync errors: device not configured

2010-04-25 Thread henri 

 I'm having some issues getting lbackup to consistently work for me.  
 Occasionally, I get this error on multiple files (not just .DS_Store):
 
 rsync: read 
 /Volumes/Drobo_HD/lbackups/theserver.Homes/Section.0/Faculty/andrewmac/.DS_Store:
  Device not configured (6)
 
 Sometimes the same sort of line will start with rsync: get_xattr_names: or 
 rsync: recv_generator:  

Thank you for reporting these issues. Would you kindly provide some further 
details regarding the configuration of your systems.

 (1) Which operating systems (including versions) are you running?

 (2) Would you please confirm that the copy is taking place via the network.

 (3) Would you please confirm which version of rsync you are using.

 (4) Please confirm if the copy of rsync which is in use was compiled with any 
patches. For example, did you use the procedure outlined at the following URL 
to compile rsync? : http://www.lbackup.org/developer/rsync_hfs

 (5) Please report back the results from running the following command : 
 vsdbutil -c /Volumes/BackupVolumeName
 Note : please substitute the BackupVolumeName with the name of your 
backup volume.

 (6) Please report back the version of lbackup you are using by issuing the 
following command : 
 grep Version /usr/local/sbin/lbackup | head -n 1 | awk '{print $3}'

 (7) Do the problems you are seeing localized to a specific sub directory of 
your backup source directory?

 (8) Please report on the size of the backup set by issuing the following 
command : 
 du -hs /Volumes/Drobo_HD/lbackups/theserver.Homes/Section.0/

(9)  Please let me know how frequently the backups are failing. Fore example 1 
in 10 times? 

(10) Finally, kindly let me know how often you are running your backup.

 My source folders are on an Xserve with Promise DS4600 via FW800, and I'm 
 backing up to an Xserve with a DroboPro via FW800.  The errors are 
 intermittent, too.  Sometimes this backup works, sometimes it fails. 


If you would prefer to keep any of this information off this public mailing 
list, Then please submit this information to Lucid via the contact details 
listed at the following URL : http://www.lucidsystems.org/contact/

If you think of any other relevant information then please also include this in 
your reply.

Again, thank you for reporting your issues.
