Hi All I have installed and configured dirvish, but the banks on the backup server don't contain any files from the production server.
My configuration. /etc/dirvish/master.conf bank: /var/backup index: text exclude: lost+found/ /proc /sys /etc/mtab /var/cache/apt core *~ .nfs* /tmp/* Runall: abigail image-default: %Y%m%d expire-default: +9 days rsh: ssh -o "BatchMode yes" -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" **************************************************************************** /var/backup/abigail/dirvish/default.conf rsync-client: sudo rsync client: dirvish@172.20.86.111 tree: / exclude: + /etc/mlmmj + /var/www /*/ /* **************************************************************************** crontab is running a file containing this script. #!/bin/sh PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin/ /usr/local/sbin/dirvish-expire --quiet /usr/local/sbin/dirvish-runall --quiet **************************************************************************** All log files contain similar information /var/backup/abigail/20120803/log ACTION: rsync -vrltH --delete -pgo --stats -D --numeric-ids --rsync-path=sudo rsync --exclude-from=/var/backup/abigail/20120803/exclude --link-dest=/var/backup/abigail/20120802/tree dirvish@172.20.86.111:/ /var/backup/abigail/20120803/tree receiving incremental file list Number of files: 1 Number of files transferred: 0 Total file size: 0 bytes Total transferred file size: 0 bytes Literal data: 0 bytes Matched data: 0 bytes File list size: 17 File list generation time: 0.001 seconds File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds Total bytes sent: 175 Total bytes received: 34 sent 175 bytes received 34 bytes 418.00 bytes/sec total size is 0 speedup is 0.00 **************************************************************************** All summery files contain something similar. client: dirvish@172.20.86.111 tree: / rsh: ssh -o "BatchMode yes" -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" Server: backup Bank: /var/backup vault: abigail branch: default Image: 20120803 Reference: 20120802 Image-now: 2012-08-03 22:04:01 Expire: +9 days == 2012-08-12 22:04:01 exclude: lost+found/ /proc /sys /etc/mtab /var/cache/apt core *~ .nfs* /tmp/* + /etc/mlmmj + /var/www /*/ /* SET permissions devices numeric-ids stats UNSET checksum init sparse whole-file xdev zxfer ACTION: rsync -vrltH --delete -pgo --stats -D --numeric-ids --rsync-path=sudo rsync --exclude-from=/var/backup/abigail/20120803/exclude --link-dest=/var/backup/abigail/20120802/tree dirvish@172.20.86.111:/ /var/backup/abigail/20120803/tree Backup-begin: 2012-08-03 22:04:01 Backup-complete: 2012-08-03 22:04:01 Status: success **************************************************************************** No files exist in the tree folders. No files were transfered when I initiated the backup "dirvish --vault abigail --init" There should be a minimum of one file each day as I am using automysqlbackup and it is creating daily backups of our mysql server within the tree I want backed up (/var/www). Yes the automysqlbackup are being created. Knowing nothing about dirvish isn't helping my situation. The idea here is to backup specific directory trees (/var/www and /etc/mlmmj) on my production server to a backup server. Both production and backup servers are squeeze with all updates.
