[Errno 26] Text file busy because of pagefile.sys
Author Message
Post [Errno 26] Text file busy because of pagefile.sys 
I have rdiff-backup configured, which makes backups from autofs cifs share to
linux box, which works quite well. The only ting that bothers me is an error I
get when backing up using command:

sudo rdiff-backup --print-statistics --tempdir /mnt/backup/temp/ --no-
compression --include-globbing-filelist /etc/rdiff-backup/e /cifs/serwer/E\$
/mnt/backup/serwer/e/

I'm trying to back up the whole partition. The problem is that there's
pagefile.sys file there, which is as I suppose the reason to error I get:

ListError manual/platnik_20080212142711.exe/pagefile.sys [Errno 26] Text file
busy: '/cifs/serwer/E$/pagefile.sys'

the include file list is:

- /cifs/serwer/E\$/RECYCLER
- /cifs/serwer/E\$/System\ Volume\ Information
- /cifs/serwer/E\$/pagefile.sys
- /cifs/serwer/E\$/555.mdf
- /cifs/serwer/E\$/555_Log.LDF
- /cifs/serwer/E\$/999.mdf
- /cifs/serwer/E\$/999_log.ldf

Is there any way to fix/work around the issue?

Do not try to backup the page file (=swap file). You can't read it under
windows anyway because it's locked. But even if you could it would
contain only useless data.

Yes, I know that. In my include file there's "-" in front of the path to the
pagefile.sys, ("- /cifs/serwer/E\$/pagefile.sys") so I'm explicitly telling
rdiff-backup not to backup the file. Thank you for answering.
