How to Prevent Disk full error

Hi

Here’s my configuration:

  • Dedicated Ubuntu 14.04 with urBackup
  • Nas4free nfs share for storing backups

The problem is: every time something happens to the backup storage (aka go offline), urbackup starts writing in the local disk that runs out of space very quickly. Then I have to delete the folders that were created locally and clean the database of non existing files.
Is there a way to prevent this?

How about changing the storage path to a subfolder and not using the share directly?

I don’t really understand how changing to a sub folder could change this. I have the nfs share mounted on startup in a sub folder /media/urbackup . What should I do differently?
