well, it turned out be an issue in the director -- i recently migrated a web server from centos6 to centos7 and when i did that, i resized the disk:
before: / mounted as logical volume /var mounted as logical volume on a separate vmware disk so in the director, i included / /var now, after the migration, i had a singular root fs and a lv, but, i didn't update the director. in conclusion, in the director, if you have / /var /var/www and the are all on the same filesystem, you will backup the same data 3x. doh! m On 11/28/2015 03:00 PM, Heitor Faria wrote: >> hi all, >> >> i am wondering under what circumstances a client backup could be larger than >> the >> disk partition itself: >> >> - centos7-x64 client on vmware 6.1.0 esxi > Hello Mayak: how did you install Bacula client on the 6.1 esxi? > >> - xfs file system >> - fd: compression on, no PKI >> - 64G disk size, 53G used >> - estimate and backup overstate backup by a factor of 3 > Could you print for us the fileset you are using?
