Okay, I set the $Conf{PartialAgeMax} to 0, rebooted the box (to clear

Ran a full, still hung at the same place. So I stopped that (remember,
at this point, there should not be a partial that it is running
against, unless backuppc still knows about it in the configs, and
PartialAgeMax should eliminate that possibility. I started an
incremental, thinking that may clear out some counters or something.
It hung at 1299 directories, 4323 files.

The only difference between a full and a partial is that when I run a
full, when the backup hangs, one of the BackupPC_dump process pegging
the cpu at 99%. The partial seems to have the two of them running, but
 they seem to have idled and the box quiesces.

All I can tell you is that it seems to be stopping at a certain point,
rather than some specific file or anything else I can determine. For
instance, if I change the order that the directories get backed up,
the file that it stops on changes. The filesystem is at 41% and the
other backups that this machine is doing all still work.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

41% free? size or inodes? check with df -i to see free inodes. ( before runnind that backup and after when stopped )
