Local clients are fine, they perform their incremental image backups fine. However the internet-based ones do not. I can perform the incremental backups manually from either the client or server and it works fine.
Interval is set to 1 day for incremental and 7 days for full. Max/Min of incremental backups set to 8 and 7 respectively. Max/min of full backups set to 2 and 1 respectively. Volume to backup is set to C.
On the internet tab doing full image backups over the internet is enabled. Clients have all the permissions enabled. However all client-side settings match that of the server.
The client tray icon is red indicating that something is wrong. Client log here:
Server log does not indicate its trying to backukp an image, but does complain there are no path’s to backup. Server logs here:
Last two lines in the server log came from restarting the client.
One thing that stands out to me, and was something that I was confused about previously (before making a few tweaks) was about my backups that were gradually getting later and later, albeit only by a few minutes at a time…
Found that the “one day” increment was actually being taken from the time that the previous backup completed…but was sorted out for me, by simply modifying the interval time - have got it set to something like 12 hours, but it can only run (or, more accurately, start running) in a 03h00-05h00 time window…
This way, even if the backup takes 6 hours, the 12-hour minimum delay interval has expired with time for it to run at 03h00 again the next day…
With regards to images, my incrementals are set to 1 day and limited to Monday to Saturday, and the weekly Full can only run on Sundays but with a 3-day increment…
Hope this makes sense, can look at grabbing some screenshots if you want…
I think part of my problem is that UrBackup doesnt think its supposed to do the backup. I have a minimum amount of incremental backups set to 7. There does not exist 7 yet for these machines there is only two at this current moment. Yet the “Image backup status” is green/OK while the last image backup was 7/12. Today being 7/14. It should at least know its missing backups?
Think that you are mixing bits up, the “Backup status” is based on the details of the machine/group settings, so if the last backup of a particular type is within the alert period, then that column will show as being okay…
