I'd start by questioning your filesystem -- quite frankly, if it's reiserfs, you're better off just wiping it out and starting over; it has an unnerving propensity to reconnect files to the tree in bizarre ways and it's particularly vulnerable (and difficult to recover from) damage.
If you're not running xfs or jfs, it's probably a good time to seriously rethink your choice of file system. On general principle, I'd recommend wiping out the pool and starting over, since if you can't trust your filesystem, how can you trust your backups? (You weren't specific about what kind of rsync errors you're getting, but if it's related to a corrupt pool, by all means, clear out the pool.) > Hi, > > I have a backuppc 2.1.2 installation which lost power and crashed.
