Re: [BackupPC-users] backing up to NAS
2008-05-05 09:13:15
well it turns out the terastation does not even support NFS, however it does support Windows shares. I do have another NAS, a ReadyNAS which does support NFS so i decided to try this one out and started a full backup job to let it run over the weekend. Uncompressed, the data needed to backup is about 475GB. This is actually 3 different shares (A-F\: 250GB,G-N\:63GB,O-Z\: 160GB). Well hoping to see a successful backup monday morning, i came to work seeing that the backup had failed! it ran for about 5 hours until i got some "PIPE" error and then after that i got a "Child exited prematurely" error.
2008-05-02 11:56:49 full backup started for directory A-F
2008-05-02 17:07:38 Aborting backup up after signal PIPE
2008-05-02 17:07:40 Got fatal error during xfer (aborted by signal=PIPE)
2008-05-02 17:07:45 Saved partial dump 0
2008-05-02 20:00:06 full backup started for directory A-F
2008-05-02 22:54:40 Got fatal error during xfer (Child exited prematurely)
2008-05-02 22:54:45 Backup aborted (Child exited prematurely)
2008-05-02 22:54:45 Saved partial dump 0
2008-05-03 20:00:02 full backup started for directory A-F
2008-05-04 17:14:22 full backup started for directory G-N
2008-05-04 22:46:52 full backup started for directory O-Z
fortunately it seems to have saved the partial backup and automatically restarted the job. though, i'm not sure what these errors mean or if they have anything to do with the NFS mount or if these errors are even documented anywhere or if they will happen again.
any suggestions???
(thank you for all the help so far, btw!!)
