[BackupPC-users] Long backup via rsync over unstable connection
2010-07-13 12:55:29
I am trying to use BPC over a WAN, and the connection I'm using seems
to be unstable. The backup is dying every few hours and giving a
"Child exited prematurely" message. I can see a definite pattern in
my bandwidth usage going up and down.
In a situation where the connection drops like this, does BPC/rsync
pickup where it left off, or does it try to start the whole thing over
again? If I point the backup at an LVM snapshot instead of the real
files, will that allow it to pickup where it left off more easily?
