On one of my BackupPC setups, I back a lot of data. On occasion things run for more than 24 hours and I start getting .... Botch on admin job for admin : already in use!! messages in the log file. I'

Just set $Conf{BackupPCNightlyPeriod} = 2; Or 4 or whatever. That way, BackupPC_nightly will do only a part of the pool each run. Bye, Tino, having that setting at 4. -- What we resist, persists. (Ze

Sorry, I replied first to Tino; here it is again to the list: I can do that, yes, But the BackupPC_nightly actually do complete, even when 3 or 4 get run in succession. I'm just wondering if the 2nd

There are two settings for BackupPC_nightly: BackupPCNightlyPeriod and MaxBackupPCNightlyJobs. My experience is that it makes no sense to set MaxBackupPCNightlyJobs to anything higher than 1 since th

Yes, this is a bug - it should skip queuing the next BackupPC_nightly if one is running. As Tino points out you can get BackupPC_nightly to take less time each night. Craig -- This SF.net email is sp

Tino, Very good explanation. One minor comment... Actually any new file is linked immediately if it exists in the pool. Rsync additionally can avoid transferring the file (or transfer just the change

As I originally said, it happens occasionally, not all the time. It usually only happens during a full backup of one of the larger clients, which I do on a 28 day interval. It's a big backup setup. T

How much memory does the server have? Just a guess, but especially if you are using rsync, you could be running into problems with the size of the "list" that rsync has to maintain in memory, and rsy

I've "educated" my users the hard way. We've got home directories with quotas set up. Then we've got a temporary "exchange" directory. Every file not changed within the last 14 days is removed by a n

I don't want to impose quotas, as appealing an idea as that sounds. The machines are for grant funded work by a relatively small number of total users. There are legitimate reasons for them to be gen

Very good, that sounds adequate, more cores and more RAM on the server could still help a bit, or an additional server or two (but again budget) but sounds like not the main cause of the problem. Sou
