Hi list,
On attempting to back up a large (250GB) fileshare area, duplicity gets
interrupted due to a problematic internet connection. It is unable to
resume the backup from where it left off, giving the message:
RESTART: The first volume failed to upload before termination.
Restart is impossible...starting backup from beginning.
And then starts back again at volume 1.
However, looking on the backup target server I can see that many of the
volumes have in fact been uploaded successfully.
On smaller areas, full + incremental backups work fine, and restores
work fine. It's just the restart functionality which is problematic.
This is a Debian box backing up to a Ubuntu box, running Duplicity
0.6.18. My invocation is as follows:
duplicity full --encrypt-key "${KEYID}" --sign-key "${KEYID}"
--num-retries 3 --name fileshare_files --exclude /mnt/files/lost+found
/mnt/files
scp://address@hidden//data/backups/${CLIENTNAME}/duplicity/fileshare_files"
Am I doing anything obviously wrong? Could this be a bug?
Cheers,
-- Tim
