Hi... A couple of weeks ago posted the message below. Today I upgraded the system to OpenBSD 4.5 (Flashboot) and installed "lsof" inorder to tackle to problem.
If I run "lsof" every few minutes with a full backup I see one line that gets my attention: COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME ... bacula-di 1248 bacula 14u VREG 17,0 30902272 6173 / (/dev/rd0a) ... This is exactly the size of the space that I'm "missing" in root but I have no clue why bacula-dir does this. As I said in my previous mail: the working directory for bacula(-dir) is: /mnt/archive/working Any advice on how to trace this futher and avoid this "writing" to root?
