Re: [Question #163372]: Incremental detecting old files as new?

 

Question #163372 on Duplicity changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/163372

    Status: Answered => Open

virtual joe is still having a problem:
Thanks, i noticed the sigtar file was 2GB so I thought perhaps it hit a
limit and it should have been bigger...

And here is the ORIGINAL first time I ran duplicity...which completely
with no errors.

sudo duplicity --verbosity 5 --gpg-options "--cipher-algo=AES256"
--exclude /sys --exclude /proc --exclude /tmp --exclude /dev /
scp://dupeuser@remotebackupserver:Port//home/dupeuser/securebackup &>
/tmp/log.txt

It finished with...
--------------[ Backup Statistics ]--------------
StartTime =  (Fri Jun 24 18:55:53 2011)
EndTime =  (Sun Jun 26 18:41:20 2011)
ElapsedTime =  (47 hours 45 minutes 27.11 seconds)
SourceFiles 4286221    
SourceFileSize 647289397479 (603 GB)
NewFiles 4286221
NewFileSize 647289397479 (603 GB)
DeltaEntries 4286221
RawDeltaSize 647076853204 (603 GB)
TotalDestinationSizeChange 486622349288 (453 GB)
Errors 0
-------------------------------------------------------

For the second time I ran duplicity.....this time I ran it from script
with "sudo ./securebackup.sh &

Inside the securebackup.sh script:
#!/bin/bash
export PASSPHRASE="MyPassPhraseWasHere"
duplicity --verbosity "5" --gpg-options "--cipher-algo=AES256" --exclude "/sys" --exclude "/proc" --exclude "/tmp" --exclude "/dev" --exclude "/restores" / scp://dupeuser@remoteserverbackup:Port//data/securebackup &> /tmp/"Log_`date +%m%d%Y`.log.txt"

>From ps aux | grep dup .... Here is my CURRENT running process that's
doing the duplicity incremental:

/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/duplicity --verbosity 5 --gpg-options --cipher-
algo=AES256 --exclude /sys --exclude /proc --exclude /tmp --exclude /dev
--exclude /restores /
scp://dupeuser@remotebackupserver:Port//data/securebackup

Its currently running and uploading volume difftar 1666 (so 26x is 43GBs
now)....

If I kill -8 the duplicity backup , without deleting anything, and
restart it, will it just resume from where it left off?

Also, what if I kill -8 duplicity backup, and then DELETE all the
Duplicity-INC* files, is that ok? Can I then simply restart duplicity
and it will try to redo the incremental  from scratch? thanks again
