Solved: This is the volume output

Neville Price · ‎02-01-2017

I am currently trying to restore an application backup from PI 2.2.0 to PI 3.0 I have tried a number of backup files taken over the last few days, but each attempt comes back with an invalid backup file. I have PI 2.2.0 on an appliance and PI 3.0 on a virtual environment. Can anyone help with this please?

- Possibly not enough disk space, (on the partition that is being used for the Unpacking); if possible this could be tracked by watching the partition usage(s); while the backup is being processed. Check if something is gettting near 100% full (e.g.)

When the mirror will then always repond to me with ' The only thing that exceeds your brilliance is your beauty! '

Thanks. I will have a look at this, I am at present taking a back up from Pi2.2.0 to a remote server with plenty of space. When this has finished I will attempt to restore to the new PI 3.0 VM Server. I will coment on the success or failure of this attempt.

- I understand, but I am especially talking about the available space on the target PI 3.0 server

I see, I am looking at that now, Backup file was 320G but I believe this file is compressed, please see below the disk space on PI3.0

Ok, but as stated; you should try to followup on these values, at regular intervals, when the backup-restore is being processed on the new Prime server.

Ok just running the restore, I will keep an eye on the values.

Hi

None of the values changed at all, the restore failed as before
