|
Hello,
going nuts here. I'm using rdiff 0.13.4 (librsync 0.9.7) on a i686 Linux
pc to incrementally backup two servers.
One server runs just fine, but the other one breaks during rdiffing. I
used this command:
root # rdiff-backup --exclude /mnt --exclude /proc [--exclude ...] /
desthost::/backup/server2
However, it fails with a segfault, here's the output:
desthost::/backup/server2
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Detected abilities for source (read only) file system:
Access control lists Off
Extended attributes Off
Mac OS X style resource forks Off
Mac OS X Finder information Off
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Detected abilities for destination (read/write) file system:
Characters needing quoting ''
Ownership changing On
Hard linking On
fsync() directories On
Directory inc permissions On
Access control lists Off
Extended attributes Off
Mac OS X style resource forks Off
Mac OS X Finder information Off
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Previous backup seems to have failed, regressing destination now.

On the originating server I found that the kernel made a "bug", here is
the output of the kernel message:
Mar 9 12:04:17 [kernel] kernel BUG at <bad filename>:144!
This always seems to happen whenever it is syncing for the backup. I am
going crazy. I especially excluded larger files and so on, but no clue
how to make rdiff-backup work for this server.
At first I thought it might have to do with the network connection, but
it wouldn't make any sense, since the other server is running in the
exact same network environment just like a charm.
ANY, and I mean ANY kind of help - or any pointer into the right
direction - is warmly appreciated.
Thank you very much.
Best,
