[BackupPC-users] [BackupPC] Cpool and pc quite are big according to size of backuped data and backup config

[Hervé R. <he...@pe...>]

Hello all,

My backup server with backuppc don't backup anymore, backup hdd is full :-/
So I checked a little bit the backuped data to see what is taking so 
much space.

Let me explain my configuration:

I have 12Gb of data to backup on my server.
I configured 1 full backup every Sunday at 3AM and Incr every other day 
of the week at 3AM too
I configured backuppc to keep 2 full backup and 12 Incr.

Then after a while my backup hdd was filled ....

I check the size of the Cpool dir and it takes about 45GB on the drive 
and pc dir is about 26Gb...

There are no big file transfer between two Incr backup which could have 
filled the disk and only 12GB of data to backup.

Did I missed something?

I don't understand why a 80GB is not sufficient.

Many thanks for your help.

Hervé
