Re: [Nssbackup-team] [Question #140592]: restore/revert produces only empty folders
Question #140592 on Simple Backup changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+question/140592 Status: Answered => Open Julien is still having a problem: Hello Jean-Peer, In my case, the backup I am trying to restore (/revet) is also a full backup. I understand your remarks about incremental backups : it only contains different files from the last full backup and in this case, a restore action restores effectivly only the files really contained in the archive. This is not our case here : I want to restore from a full backup and not an incremental one. As I suppose that I (and the other people here) am in a special case, I would like to give you more information but I dont know how : is there a debug/hidden mode like a verbose one ? maybe we are using external programms (like 'find' or 'ls' bins) to sbackup which make that the list of files contain only empty folders ? How can I provide more information to you ? -- You received this question notification because you are a member of Simple Backup Maintainers, which is an answer contact for Simple Backup. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~nssbackup-team Post to : nssbackup-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~nssbackup-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

However, it'll require a change of the snapshot format and really extensive testing, so be patient. Or better, jump in if you're a programmer :) > Besides, the program stopped at 4 Gb and finished off I don't understand exactly what you mean. Could you explain it? Maybe, you should try to use uncompressed snapshots. Depending on your data, snapshots become bigger though access is much faster. Thanks for your suggestion. Best regards.

Re: [Nssbackup-team] [Question #140592]: restore/revert produces only empty folders
Question #140592 on Simple Backup changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+question/140592 olyerickson posted a new comment: Jean-Peer, thanks for your quick response! In my case I only make (nightly) full backups, so if I understand what you're saying there should be no real difference. In any case, doing "Restore As..." and "Revert As..." achieved the same result --- only empty folders. Maybe I'm missing something; here's what I've been trying to do: * Mount backup drive on second system * Use SBackup config to ensure SBackup "sees" the drive * Use SBackup restore to "Revert As..." a full snapshot of e.g. my "/home" to a directory on the second system e.g. "/home/lifeboat" At this point I see only folders... I can then select and revert individual files in the tree, but that gets really old for thousands of files :( You received this question notification because you are a member of Simple Backup Maintainers, which is an answer contact for Simple Backup. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~nssbackup-team Post to : nssbackup-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~nssbackup-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Re: [Nssbackup-team] [Question #140592]: restore/revert produces only empty folders
Question #140592 on Simple Backup changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+question/140592 Status: Open => Answered Jean-Peer Lorenz proposed the following answer: Hello, thanks for using sbackup. I don't fully understand your problem. It is, of course, possible to restore directories and files from a snapshot! I've tried it 5 min ago in order to confirm that it does work ;-) I'll explain it: Given you have a set of snapshots: full one and several incremental one. Files are only stored when they have changed, i.e. the latest incremental snapshot will only contain modified and new files as well as the directory structure. The graphical UI provides 4 buttons: -- | Restore | Restore as | |-| | Revert | Revert as | -- As already explained in https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+faq/1325 there is a different behaviour between Restore and Revert. Restore extracts files and directories contained in the *selected* snapshot. In contrast, Revert extracts files and directories from the selected snapshot *and* its predecessors in reverse order. That is, if you select the latest incremental snapshot (lets say it only contains unmodified files) and click 'Restore' it will restore only empty folders. If you click on 'Revert' it will restore all files and directories in reverse order. Same holds for 'restore as' and 'revert as'.
