This might be a misunderstanding on my part but I have urbackup 2.5.36 on Linux Mint Mate 24.04.3.
I am backing up to a raid array that is ext3. I can make symlinks on the filesystem. But when I do a backup it doesn’t create links for incremental backups. So if I have 10 backups, the actual storage taken up is basically a full backup x 10 even though I am telling it to do an incremental backup.
So long story short the incremental backups are basically full backups even though I manually selected incremental.
Here is my urbackupclientctl list-backupdirs output:
PATH NAME FLAGS
---- ---- --------------------------
/etc etc optional,symlinks_optional
Is this a setting issue or a bug? We are backuping up very large workpress installs along with other large folders and I don’t want to use massive amounts of space for incremental backups.
Thanks in advance.
