When the tar backup appears to be stalled, please do the following:

OK, full backup has been running since 11pm last night, and appears hung.


  * run ps auxww (options might vary based on which server OS you are
    running), and find the relevant backups processes: BackupPC_dump,
    BackupPC_tarExtract, and the corresponding ssh command that runs the
    remote tar.

backuppc 19250 10.4 0.0 397252 15676 ? S Jul19 137:52 /usr/bin/smbclient \\pelican\C$ -U backup -E -d 1 -c tarmode full -Tc -

  * run "strace -p PID" as root, for each number PID listed by ps
    above.  Please send me the output.

strace -p 19250 (smbclient) never stops output, accumulates rapidly; some of it is attached.

backuppc 19249 19246 8 Jul19 ? 01:51:40 /usr/bin/perl /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_tarExtract -h pelican -s C$ -f

strace -p 19249 (tar) generates no output at all:

# cat strace_tar.out
read(0,  <detached ...>


Xferlog's last modification date is 9:02am (about 12 hours ago and about 10 hours since the backup began). Last couple of lines are:

There is no line break here on the last line.
