I apologise if my question is answered before (I didnt find it) I have a problem when BackupPC (3.2.1) tries to backup a large file, about 12GB in size. I use a CentOS BackupPC server backing up an CentOS client with rsync over ssh. I first saw this using CentOS 5 and rsync 2.x, I therefore upgraded to CentOS 6 which has rsync 3.x as google search indicated there might be an issue with rsync that was fixed in 3.0X? But the problem still exists ... More details; The source file (ls l) on the client; -rwxr----- 1 user1 server 12773621760 Feb 4 2011 2010-12-19 Huge HD recording 2010.m2ts The transfer of date does not stop, and I had to stop it manually when the backup file reached ~1/2 TB on the BackupPC server (in the TopDir/pc structure); -rw-r----- 1 backuppc backuppc 499482475314 Aug 31 11:59 f2010-12-19 Huge HD recording 2010.m2ts I dont know the processes involved, but it seemed to me that /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump was the process writing to the 1/2 TB file (just guessing here?) I have other of size up to 6GB where the backup succeeds, where are the limitations above that? But where is this limitation, is it BackupPC, rsync or? What can I do? +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by da...@he... via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@ba.... +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
