Thanks Les,

Apologies, I thought i had included server information in my first mail. I have 3 servers running which are all running Ubuntu 12.04 with backuppc installed from the standard repositories. Nothing has changed on the server with the problem to best of my knowledge.

I've inherited this from previous admin who I am fairly sure followed best practice when setting up. I am not an admin but have been charged with looking after the Linux boxes in his absence.

I have been checking the web gui on all 3 boxes daily to check on what's being backed up etc while I get my head round things. This box has been working fine up to few days ago.

Regards

No, pool size hitting 95% (default) will cause new backup runs to
stop, but not the service itself.

You haven't said anything about what Linux distro you use or how your
installation differs from the standard package or what changed at the
time it stopped working.   If it is CentOS or Fedora, my first guess
is always selinux for mysterious failures, especially if you have
moved something to a non-standard location or mounted a different
filesystem.
