Backups

Post by BanditBBS »

I finally got a NAS share mounted on both nodes that is shared and created a repo. No backups have been performed, what am I missing?

It's likely a permissions problem. Try the following:

Code: Select all

su - nagios
cd /mnt/backuppath
touch file
rm file
Also, note that the backup repository needs to be mounted in the same place across both servers. Hopefully the above gives you enough information to diagnose what might be wrong!

Yikes! Does your NAS have enough space to hold the data you're trying to backup? I don't remember your environment being gigantic by any means.
