Our BackupPC 4.1.3 pool hit >80% utilization, and I'm contemplating extending it past 4TiB as we continue to add systems to our backups.
- Pool is 3237.37GiB comprising 12776990 files and 16512 directories (as of 7/18 01:44),
In a previous $JOB, I never had a pool get much larger than about 2.5TiB, so I'm not entirely certain what the limits of BackupPC are.
Are there reliable reports available of people who have a BackupPC file system >4TiB? Are there any gotcha's that the developers are aware of as a pool starts to get into this size range? What is a practical upper end for BackupPC to manage?
Thanks
