Yohoo!

Another question from me in trying to understand the way BackupPC works.

I have a full rsync backup scheduled for one of my hosts.

Now the backup is running for hours and nothing is happening.

What did I check?
- -tcpdump on the client server: there is no traffic between the BackupPC
and the client server (I checked for approx 15mins)
- -rsync process is running on the client server
- -no CPU activity from this rsync process on the client server
- -client server is reachable (I'm logged in through ssh)
- -On BackupPC two BackupPC_dump processes are running for the client
- -On BackupPC there's one ssh process running which started the rsync
process on the client (I assume).
- -On BackupPC none of these processes is using any CPU cycles- CPU is at
99.7% idle
- -nestat -ap shows on client and backuppc an established port 22 connection

So what is going on there? Everything looks pretty good (I don't even
get a timeout) but the backup is not finishing.
I added the "-z --checksum-seed=32761" parameters to rsync. Could this
be related?

What can I do?


Thanks

Christian
