Hi Alan, Wow, this was really fast :-) Thanks for your answer.
of course I know, that this is a io-consuming-process, but the load is really too high. Other tasks that are done by the system (log rotation, ...) are not working correctly and once the server crashed bc. of this high load. Wouldn't it be better to use ionice -c2 -n7, even if the backup-task works longer? In this case the system would only read/write, if there are no other processes which need the io. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by r...@ehrenwert.it via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor 25 network devices or servers for free with OpManager!
