UrBackup Server 2.0.7/Client 2.0.6 beta (updated)

Local backup no encryption but compression was on.

Hey Uroni! Thanks for making an awesome product!

Iā€™ve been having some trouble getting incremental image backups working on 2.x. I had no troubles with the 1.4.x, but nothing I do with 2.x seems to work. Here are the details:

Server: 2.0.7 on Debian 8.3 (.deb install), fresh install, not upgraded
Client: 2.0.6 on Windows 7 VM for testing (fully updated, VMware Tools installed), no other software installed

Symptoms (reproducible):

  • Full/Incremental file backups - [OK]
  • First full image backup - [OK]
  • Next full or image backup - [client debug.log: Pipe to client unexpectedly closed has_error=true]

Things Iā€™ve tried:

  • 1.4.11 client on Windows 7 VM [no improvement]

Let me know if thereā€™s anything else I can try.

Cheers,
G

Thanks for the detailed report!

Could you upload/send me the hash file of the full image backup it is basing the incremental backup on?
Would be e.g. Image_C_160327-2201.raw.hash.

Switched from 2.0.7 deb package to 2.0.7 self compiled version with full fresh install.

No Client errorsā€¦

Is this is with a client without snapshots?

Confirmed no snapshots running on the client VM.

Ok, will do some tests with file sizes changing during backups. Thanks! (Not that it makes much sense backing up files like this :wink: )

@tarakesh Sorry got confused. Must be something else then.

@crashuk
Could you have a look at the debug log to see what it is doing in the extra hour? Perhaps the live log will also show some extra info during the backup.

@john3354 The first one looks like the backup up is missing? The second one could be an error Iā€™ve been trying to track. Iā€™ll try to reproduce that and if I canā€™t come back to your offer. Thanks!

I told the server to do a full file backup. We will see if that helps. No idea why it would say the backup is missing? That error only started after I upgraded to the latest beta.

As for the second, if there is anyway that I can help just let me know. I will get you whatever information that you need.

I have installed 2.0.6 client on my Windows 10 laptop, installed with default settings.
Now I get this error in mail:
ERROR: Client calculated hash of ā€œ/media/backup/urbackup//BornData - SƃĀøren Yoga 13/160330-0951/C/swapfile.sysā€ differs from server calculated hash. This may be caused by a bug or by random bit flips on the client or server hard disk. Failing backup.
ERROR: FATAL: Backup failed because of disk problems

The page file should automatically be excluded. Could you have a look if it is listed in the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\ExistingPagefiles ?

Edit: Ok, it is a new pagefile for Windows 10 Universal appsā€¦ Now I have to find a registry key for that oneā€¦

Hey Uroni,

Did you receive the hash file I sent via email?

Can anyone else confirm if they have successfully completed incremental image backups using copy-on-write/btrfs snapshots? Iā€™m also backing up over the internet if that makes any difference.

Yes, thanks! Should be fixed with the version I just released.

Testing EFI/GPT restores

Urbackup 2.0.8 Server, Debian 8 with btrfs formatted storage ( no compression ). Intel Core 2 Quad with 4GB RAM.
Urbackup 2.0.6 Client, Windows 10 Pro.

Installed Windows 10 on an Intel NUC, with EFI enabled in the BIOS. Created a full image of the NUC.

Restored the NUC image onto a VirtualBox VM with EFI support enabled. Chose install onto dissimilar hardware option. Worked perfectly.

Restored the NUC image onto an AMD based M/B. Chose install onto dissimilar hardware option. On first boot Windows diagnosed the install then after a restart booted to the desktop. I then scanned for new drivers in device manager and Windows 10 downloaded drivers off the Internet. Worked perfectly.

Determined to break UrBackup, I did the same with another, different chipset, AMD based M/B. Same result. Worked perfectly.

The restore speed was around 6 minutes for the 15 GB image on my gigabit network and Iā€™m not using SSD drives.

Combined with the ability to do synthetic incremental images with btrfs, simply awesome.
