What is the ./rootfs/ directory, and why is that not the place it is
trying to write? Do you actually have a hardlinked structure like
that on the backup target?

I use the rsyncd and modules name for path = / is rootfs . Then backup the whole root (with some exclude of course) using backuppc. Backuppc write it under frootfs folder.

When doing archive backupps put all file under / into a folder rootfs .

Nope backup target is normal centos 6 system so no hardlink at all for such like /sbin/e2fsck , etc.. . When backuppc does the backup as there are two nealry identical target system it makes hardlink for the second one I guess to same disk space. But when dong an archive it should dereference the hard link -
