[rdiff-backup-users] rdiff-backup result is missing text files but no errors, sourcedir to big >2TB

[Jelle de Jong]

Hello everybody,

I am trying to run an rdiff-backup and it keeps missing some documents 
compared with the source, we are using a simple test.txt file to check 
if the backups are still working and I got one big source backup of 
+2.4TB. When running rdiff-backup there are no errors. So I can not 
figure out what is going wrong.

I split the backup to make the source smaller and then it does make 
backups of the test.txt file.

How can rdiff-backup handle bigger 3TB backups? The command I am running?

/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/rdiff-backup --tempdir 
/srv/storage/backups/tempdir --exclude-device-files --exclude-sockets 
--exclude-fifos /mnt/sr8-sdb2/ 
/srv/storage/backups/libvirt-filesystems/sr8-sdb2/

Kind regards,
