BackupPC_nightly will take care of that. If you want to force the issue, I think the command to run BackupPC_nightly is something like: /path/to/BackupPC_nightly 1 255 which tells it to do its job throughout the entire hash tree that contains the data pool. I'd leave it in place tho; I don't know for certain (someone who's seen and understood the code please correct me) but the pool may be consulted for the hashed value of the file about to be transferred, and if it is found, then the file won't be transferred (just linked from the existing copy in the pool), thus saving you a lot of time and trouble. -- Carl Soderstrom Systems Administrator Real-Time Enterprises www.real-time.com |
