filesystem full - misconfiguration?: msg#00061sysutils.backup.rsnapshot.general
I've had rsnapshot running for a little while now and it seems to have filled up my fileystem. Perhaps somebody can shed some light on where i may have gone wrong (not that the instructions seem /very/ complicated, but i seem to have missed something important). The first hint was finding that my VolGroup00 is at 98%. I immediately thought to check my snapshots dir: [root@apollo snapshots]# rsnapshot du 5.5G /snapshots/hourly.0/ 138M /snapshots/hourly.1/ 120M /snapshots/hourly.2/ 222M /snapshots/hourly.3/ 226M /snapshots/hourly.4/ 90M /snapshots/hourly.5/ 289M /snapshots/daily.0/ 321M /snapshots/daily.1/ 194M /snapshots/daily.2/ 195M /snapshots/daily.3/ 259M /snapshots/daily.4/ 157M /snapshots/daily.5/ 411M /snapshots/daily.6/ 1.6G /snapshots/weekly.0/ 465M /snapshots/weekly.1/ 13G total As i understand it, using du through rsnapshot should give a proper reading of what's going (given the hard links). But this doesn't look right at all. I've certainly not been generating hundreds of Mb of changes to the system every day. Either i have a fundamental misunderstanding about how rsnapshot works or something's mis-configured here. Side note: i tried getting a diff between snapshots but that didn't work. [root@apollo snapshots]# rsnapshot diff daily.0 daily.1 Unknown option: daily.0 Please make sure all switches come before commands (i.e. 'rsnapshot -v hourly', not 'rsnapshot hourly -v') Here's my config: config_version 1.2 snapshot_root /snapshots/ no_create_root 1 cmd_cp /bin/cp cmd_rm /bin/rm cmd_rsync /usr/bin/rsync cmd_ssh /usr/bin/ssh cmd_logger /usr/bin/logger cmd_du /usr/bin/du interval hourly 6 interval daily 7 interval weekly 4 interval monthly 3 link_dest 1 verbose 2 loglevel 3 logfile /var/log/rsnapshot rsync_short_args -a rsync_long_args --delete --numeric-ids --relative --delete-excluded ssh_args -p 22 du_args -csh lockfile /var/run/rsnapshot.pid backup /home/ apollo/ backup /etc/ apollo/ backup /usr/local/ apollo/ backup /opt/svn/ apollo/ backup /var/www/ apollo/ backup /var/log/ apollo/ backup /var/lib/ apollo/ My crontab has: 0 */4 * * * /usr/bin/rsnapshot hourly 0 23 * * * /usr/bin/rsnapshot daily 0 11 * * 4 /usr/bin/rsnapshot weekly 0 13 1 * * /usr/bin/rsnapshot monthly So, can anyone point me in the correct direction on this? And, to free up disk space, can i safely just remove all of the snapshots, save for daily.0? brian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
