Hello. i have a strange problem:
I have 1 server with qmail qmail-scanner1.24 uvscan. I use a script for update uvscan. i make a backup of the system with tar every night.
all function good for a lot of time. in this moment i have a problem:
when i launch backup with tar, when the tar is backupping /usr or /var
the uvscan not always,
but with a good frequency, stop to working because is DAT files are
broken.
So doing a backup causes uvscan to start reporting that the DAT files are broken? Impossible - yup - actually impossible.
I need to know if in the qmail-scanner process to use uvscan there is a
file-block, or other
procedures that block files or if there is a directory to exlude from
the backup
to preserve. I have allready exlude /usr, but in the last week the
problem is gone back again.
You excluded "/usr" from the backup tree, and that "fixed" the problem for a while - but now it's happening again?
If this is all the pertinent information, I'm going to suggest you have a hardware problem - your disk or diskcontroller is failing.
