full backup file number

[Franky Leeuwerck]

Hello everybody,

Doing a full backup with br_backup (invokes fbackup) a br_log file is generated telling me ' fbackup(3005): WARNING: file number 78897 was NOT backed up ' .
I would like to know what file was not backed up.
Does this file number stand for the inode number ?

Hi,

The file name is given in the 78897th line in the backup index.

This can be recreated with frecover -I. Alternatively if you have the br_index.full log, execute

# cat -n br_index.full | grep " 78897 "

Hope this helps. Regards.
