Re: [BackupPC-users] Got fatal error during xfer
2009-12-02 16:59:14
I did some more testing watching top and such on both backuppc server and the client. Both had plenty of memory and such. The thing we are thinking is possibly the cable or switch between the two. Tomorrow we plan to relocate the backuppc server from it's current location and plug it directly in via crossover cable to the server. That will eliminate the networking gear all except the network intercafe cards.
Thanks for the input.

Looks like something is wrong on the target side, dropping the
connection. File system problems? Out of memory? Are both machines on
the same LAN or could there be a problem with networking equipment
between them?

This doesn't tell you anything except that the other end died.

Backuppc doesn't use the rsync binary on the server side - it has its
own implementation in perl. But it looks like things started OK and
then either the remote side quite or the network connection had a problem.
