This is 6.6-current on an ALIX (dmesg below), serving as my home server. It's where I store the daily.local dumps, into /backup on a big USB disk. The machine often crashes into a ddb when saving those dumps. I only have lame screenshots now (will plug a cereal in):

The machine itself is dumping local fs's into /backup, and a few other machines rsync their dumps into there. All of that is run from daily.local (on each of the machines). These crashes have become less frequent since I disabled softdep on the fs. $ cat /etc/fstab bf940e6c7aaf2c50.a / ffs rw 1 1 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.d /usr ffs rw,nodev,noatime 1 2 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.e /usr/local ffs rw,nodev,noatime,wxallowed 1 2 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.f /var ffs rw,nodev,noatime,nosuid 1 2 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.g /var/log ffs rw,nodev,noatime,nosuid 1 2 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.h /var/www ffs rw,nodev,noatime,nosuid 1 2 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.i /var/mail ffs rw,nodev,noatime,nosuid 1 2 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.j /var/postgresql ffs rw,nodev,noatime,nosuid 1 2 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.k /tmp ffs rw,nodev,noatime,nosuid 1 2 bf940e6c7aaf2c50.l /home ffs rw,nodev,noatime,nosuid 1 2 31efc37173c4c30f.a /backup ffs rw,nodev,noatime,nosuid $ mount -v /dev/wd0a (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.a) on / type ffs (rw, local, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:39 2020) /dev/wd0d (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.d) on /usr type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/wd0e (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.e) on /usr/local type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, wxallowed, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/wd0f (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.f) on /var type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, nosuid, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/wd0g (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.g) on /var/log type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, nosuid, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/wd0h (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.h) on /var/www type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, nosuid, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/wd0i (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.i) on /var/mail type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, nosuid, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/wd0j (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.j) on /var/postgresql type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, nosuid, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/wd0k (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.k) on /tmp type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, nosuid, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/wd0l (bf940e6c7aaf2c50.l) on /home type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, nosuid, ctime=Wed Jan 8 07:43:29 2020) /dev/sd0a (31efc37173c4c30f.a) on /backup type ffs (rw, local, noatime, nodev, nosuid, ctime=Wed Jan 8 08:23:32 2020) Is it the disk? I did a complete dd read and a complete dd write before I put it to use, and it didn't show any problem. No signs of failed io in messages either. Is it the USB cable? I replaced it a couple of times. Is it the USB interface on the ALIX? Is it the small amount of memory? I tried using openrsync, which would fail on malloc (it mmaps the files). Could it be the rsync over ssh? (I will try to run just local backup for some time, without rsyncing the others). How can I debug this further?
