Hi All,
We've started to setup a large multiple server backuppc environment, and wanted
a few thoughts/ideas/advice.
We've got a large 2TB nas at the back of it with gig connectivity.
Filesystem is LVM on top of OCFS2 so we have multiple front-end servers with
read/write.
Backuppc on each host is setup with relevant different hostnames and setup
separate logdirectories. The actual top/backup location is shared on the main
nas store.
So
$Conf{TopDir} = /backups/backuppc/
$Conf{ConfDir} = '/etc/backuppc';
$Conf{LogDir} = '/backups/backup02';
$Conf{InstallDir} = '/usr/share/backuppc';
$Conf{CgiDir} = '/usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin';
Each server has its own list of hosts in /etc/backuppc/hosts as that's how I'm
splitting the job queues. i.e. a host only exists in one server hosts file (at
present either backup01 or backup02).
Can anyone see any pitfalls with this? The only strange thing I've noticed is
with the trashClean process, it seems to be trying to clean things that the
other server is creating/working on and failing with "Can't read
/var/lib/backuppc/trash/xxxx/home/blah/thing/file: No such file or directory".
It doesn't seem a major thing so I'm ignoring it for now!
Anyone see any pitfalls/problems with what I'm doing here?
Cheers!
Andy
