I've also got problems with the link error when I change the topDir from
the default install location (var/lib/backuppc) to a mount on a raid
array, ie moving all the subdirectories within topDir to the new location.
I've tried mounting the raid on a partition at root level
'/backup-files', and most recently I created a directory within
var/lib/backuppc called RAID and mounted it on that, each time backuppc
works, in that it backups up and saves the back up files where you would
expect them, i.e. '/backup-files/pc' and var/lib/backuppc/raid/pc but it
seems to be unable to to add anything into the relevant cpool directory
I've done the df as suggsted:-
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/lib$ sudo df /var/lib/backuppc/raid/cpool
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0 625118068 32888 625085180 1%
/var/lib/backuppc/raid
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/lib$ sudo df /var/lib/backuppc/raid/pc
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0 625118068 32888 625085180 1%
/var/lib/backuppc/raid
Help !!
Thanks
