no errors in the source server

I have two raid controllers and both working ok is just a big partition that i have to backup

/dev/mapper/volgroup-volume01
                       15T  3.0T   11T  22% /data

the backup server had some issues but it was fixed so I tried to run rdiff-backup on a new partition/directory but is not working :(

Are you sure the source filesystem is error-free? This error seems to be rarely seen with rdiff-backup so I suspect something unusual in your setup.

Hi

I'm trying to get a backup of a 3TB partition and it failed with this
error

Exception '[Errno 31] Too many links:
'/rdiff/newarsvrfs01/htdocs/chase.archinetonline.com/chasedata/project_89381''

raised of class 'exceptions.OSError':

This has been working ok for a while and then we had a problem with the
RAID being degrated. we fixed the raid issue and the backups never
worked again. I have even tried to do a fresh backup on a new
partition/location but we get the same error

any ideas what the problem could be? we havent changed anything on our
backup server.

PS: Im using rdiff-backup 1.2.8
Try running rdiff-backup with --no-eas option (unless you need
extended attributes), and see if this helps.
