Hi Dan, I looked at the ionice option when I first came to BiT, but I didn't work on it, no.
I see where the schedule per included setting causes a lot of headache. Now that BiT has profiles support this option is most likely not needed any more so I support it's removal. The part I was working on is letting the user choose the hour of their backup if the backup is daily or greater; this will help those who don't leave their computers on all night since BiT runs these backups at midnight. Only root has access to anacron which will run missed cron jobs, regular users don't have this capability. I'm finished with the gnome side; KDE is the outstanding part and getting it to work properly with the schedule per include option, but if that is removed it's only KDE to complete. - Richard On Mon, Nov 30, 2009 at 7:03 AM, Dan <d...@le-web.org> wrote: > Hi, > > Richard, maybe I'm wrong, but didn't you worked on using ionice option ? > (I'm talking about https://bugs.launchpad.net/backintime/+bug/482931) > > Then I'm restarting the debate about schedule per included directory. > The implementation is tricky and it can break things. > There can be a snapshot consistency problem: you have a schedule every 5 > minutes for a folder and disabled for another.
