Perhaps this is an inode problem ?
I just tried regressing a file, and i got another "error 28 no space left on disk" However the disk has 288gb space free Did a little googling and found suggestions that inodes can cause a problem if there are lots of small files, well I have set no delete older than limits on my backups, and so with infinite backup increments for 5 busy workstations, perhaps this is the problem ? I've just run $ tune2fs -l /dev/hda1 | grep Inode and get Inode count: 30334976 Inodes per group: 8192 Inode blocks per group: 512 Inode size: 256 I'm still researching inodes, (don't know what they are at this stage) does my mount look excessive ? thx > To: address@hidden > From: address@hidden > Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2015 09:22:22 +0100 > Subject: Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Exception '[Errno 28] No space left on device' > > Use --remote-tempdir switch to set the temp dir to be used on the remote > machine. > > On 21/07/2015 03:15, Stephen Butler wrote: > > Thanks Bob, > > > > That sounds like a good lead, The server is running tinycore and /tmp > > is in memory. > > > > I've created following folder on server /mnt/hda1/tmp > > I've set it to 777 > > > > new rdiff-backup command is > > > > rdiff-backup --tempdir /mnt/hda1/tmp --ssh-no-compression --force -v3 > > --print-statistics B:/Users/%username% > > address@hidden::/mnt/hda1/rdiffbackup.repositorys/address@hidden > > > > However same error is encountered. > > > > Does rdiff-backup assume that --tempdir /mnt/hda1/tmp is on local win > > machine or does it know to check for the remote server ? > > > > I also tried --tempdir address@hidden::/mnt/hda1/tmp But this also fails. > > > > Perhaps I'm making a simple syntax error when invoking --tempdir ? > > > > > To: address@hidden > > > From: address@hidden > > > Date: Thu, 16 Jul 2015 13:04:31 -0500 > > > Subject: Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Exception '[Errno 28] No space > > left on device' > > > > > > On 07/16/2015 12:37 AM, Stephen Butler wrote: > > > > > > > > Here's the backup.log file for the relevant computer > > > > ----------------------- > > > > Previous backup seems to have failed, regressing destination now. > > > > Exception '[Errno 28] No space left on device' raised of class '<type > > > > 'exceptions.IOError'>': > > > > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rdiff_backup/robust.py", > > > > line 32, in check_common_error > > > > try: return function(*args) > > > > File > > > > "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rdiff_backup/restore.py", line > > > > 468, in get_fp > > > > Rdiff.write_patched_fp(current_fp, delta_fp, new_fp) > > > > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rdiff_backup/Rdiff.py", > > > > line 73, in write_patched_fp > > > > rpath.copyfileobj(librsync.PatchedFile(basis_fp, delta_fp), out_fp) > > > > File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rdiff_backup/rpath.py", > > > > line 64, in copyfileobj > > > > outputfp.write(inbuf) > > > > > > Regressing a backup can require a lot of temporary file space, and > > > your /tmp might not have enough, especially if it is a tmpfs in RAM. > > > Try using the "--tmpdir" option or environment variables TMPDIR, > > > TEMP, or TMP to specify a directory with more space. > > > > > > -- > > > Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. > > > Do NOT delete it. > > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > rdiff-backup-users mailing list at address@hidden > > > https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users > > > Wiki URL: > > http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > rdiff-backup-users mailing list at address@hidden > > https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users > > Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki > > > _______________________________________________ > rdiff-backup-users mailing list at address@hidden > https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users > Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki |
