Hey guys! Doing my best to get up to speed with Backuppc, pretty impressive so far. Logs are filled with “backuppc_link got error -4” errors, and from the research I have done it seems that because my TopDir (/mnt/sdb1) and the cpool location (/home/users/backuppc/data/cpool) are on different filesystems, hard links will obviously fail. Is the answer to soft link “ln –s /mnt/sdb1 /home/users/backuppc/topdir” and change TopDir in config.pl to the “/home/users/backuppc/topdir”? It can’t be that easy, right?

 

 

Thanks!

Jim
