THANK YOU! That worked, and I am installing it on all my machines, even the ones without RAID arrays. -- Kevin O'Gorman (he/him/his) Explore, enjoy and protect the environment.

Thanks. I'm working on recovery from a system failure, but will try that when I can. (Being 81 years old, some stuff goes more slowly than I remember.....) -- Kevin O'Gorman (he/him/his) Explore, enjoy and protect the environment.

Oops, I missed your reply asking for more information. I use the partclone in Ubuntu. I do not use clonezilla. I use partclone as part of a larger script of my own making, so I did not think clonezilla would be helpful. -- Kevin O'Gorman (he/him/his) Explore, enjoy and protect the environment.

Thanks for the links. But I am unsure how to proceed I downloaded the git repo. I didn't see instructions on building. I'm on Xubuntu (debian-based). I looked at your link to a binary one, but was also unsure how to proceed with that -- would a binary work on my system (AMD64), and if so, which of the several things tagged 0.3.36 should I be using? Is clonezilla a standalone? I want something I can write scripts for, and run on my server without taking it down. I will look into it a bit more, but...

Thanks for your feedback. Please use the latest Partclone 0.3.36: https://github.com/Thomas-Tsai/partclone You can find the binary one here: https://free.nchc.org.tw/drbl-core/pool/drbl/unstable/partclone/ Or try to use Clonezilla live >= 3.2.1-19: https://clonezilla.org/downloads.php Steven

I don't see any activity on this. It continues to be a problem, so I gathered a bit more information, using a more up-to-date OS. I hope this in enough info to help narrow down what you need to look for. The OS (as reported by /etc/os-release (in part) PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS" VERSION="24.04.2 LTS (Noble Numbat)" The version of partclone in use as reported by partclone.ext4 -v Partclone : v0.3.27 (0882b2de94f05d3ad81304872cbd3dff02105239) The command I'm using: partclone.ext4 --clone --rescue...

Thanks @steven_shiau . My LTS versions (Ubuntu) only go up to 0.3.17. The new LTS should come out soon, and I'll try again.
-
The latest Patclone is 0.3.27, and the version 0.3.13 you are using is too old. I suggest you try to boot Clonezilla live 3.1.2-22, and use the partclone on it. https://clonezilla.org//downloads.php Steven

I'm on Ubuntu Focal (20.04.6 LTS) trying to back up my RAID partition. The partition mounts just fine, and passes fsck. I'm using partclone v0.3.13 because that's what is in this distribution. The partition is unmounted when I attempt the backup, and here's the relevant part of lsblk -o +fstype output: sda 8:0 0 16.4T 0 disk linux_raid_member └─md127 9:127 0 32.8T 0 raid5 └─md127p1 259:0 0 32.8T 0 part ext4 sdb 8:16 0 16.4T 0 disk linux_raid_member └─md127 9:127 0 32.8T 0 raid5 └─md127p1 259:0 0...

Which version of Partclone did you use? Have you tried the one in Clonezilla live 3.1.2-9 environment? Steven

Partclone makes zero progress backing up my RAID partition

You did not show the partclone you run. Please show that so that we can try to reproduce this issue. Steven

I cannot make partclone back up my MDADM RAID -- it just hangs forever (or until I interrupt it a day later). See the issue at https://askubuntu.com/questions/1503792/partclone-what-am-i-doing-wrong

Thomas posted a comment on ticket #12
Hi, What's the difference between partclone.dd and partclone.imager? Partclone.imager saves partitions as partclone images, specially formatted archives designed for efficient storage and manipulation. Some filesystems are not supported by partclone. We still have a chance to do a backup and save to the same format. For details on the partclone image format, see the official documentation: https://partclone.org/usage/partclone.restore.php
-
Partclone.imager man page is lacking information about --clone and --rescue.

Hi, I have no idea for Just mention we also mount the ISO image on partition sda8 while re-imaging. If your sda8 is mounted, that would make partclone fail. Following your test result, all partitions clone successfully, so the problem may be with other utilities. Check your script 'partclone-image', memory, and available space.

When we are trying to upgrade a system OS from SLES11 -> SLES15 and trying to execute below command through script fails with disk IO ERROR: We have partitions from partitions from sda1 to sda9 and we hit this ERROR while processing only "sda8".

No idea, I followed your steps to try to reproduce this issue. However, it was working well. The working environment I was using is Clonezilla live 2.7.3-19-amd64. After booting: root@debian:~# mkfs.xfs -f -b size=4096 -m reflink=1,crc=1 /dev/sda1 root@debian:~# xfs_db /dev/sda1 xfs_db> version versionnum [0xb4a5+0x18a] = V5,NLINK,DIRV2,ALIGN,LOGV2,EXTFLG,MOREBITS,ATTR2,LAZYSBCOUNT,PROJID32BIT,CRC,FTYPE,FINOBT,SPARSE_INODES,REFLINK root@debian:~# partclone.xfs -c -d -s /dev/sda1 | ssh root@192.168.120.254...

So how did you create that XFS file system? Which version of xfs? On which GNU/Linux and version? Please let us know the details so that we can try to reproduce this issue. Thanks. Steven

Hi Steven, Thanks ! I try with version 0.3.17 without success but I don't wait more than 30 minutes. Have a good day Erwan

Please give the latest unstable version 0.3.17 a try: https://partclone.org/download/ Steven

OK, thanks. I got it to work. I'd already scrounged up 4tb on another drive by moving stuff so that I was able to manually decompress the image and then check it, but it's nice to know I don't have to do that going forward. The comments in the man file for partclone are what caused me an issue as it said that first the redirection could only be done for restores, not both checks and restores, and second it said to not use the -s option at all and just use a dash. Using --source=- worked though. Thanks...

Rescuezilla modified a comment on discussion Help
For what it's worth, Rescuezilla v2.2 (Clonezilla GUI) has recently added (early) support for images created by FOG Project. As of Rescuezilla v2.2, there is good support for restoring FOG Project images of Windows (both GPT and MBR) systems, but FOG Project images of Linux systems is not complete (there's more to implement, due to how it does partition resizing: FOG Project automatically modifies the restored partition's /etc/fstsab UUID and a few others not yet implemented by Rescuezilla). Because...
