Re: [SOLVED] SSD filling up because of backup failure

idk how this works but you previously had

/var/lib
- /var

and apparently /var/lib was picked up, so maybe try trailing "- /var" ?

Trailing it doesn't seem to work. This globbing is arcane.

Re: [SOLVED] SSD filling up because of backup failure

Maybe some stray char in the file?
What if you only remove the "/var/lib/upower" line?

Nope. It just keeps saying

Reading globbing filelist /usr/local/lib/globbing_list
Local and Remote metadata are synchronized, no sync needed.
Last inc backup left a partial set, restarting.
Last full backup date: Mon Apr 13 00:00:11 2020

Re: [SOLVED] SSD filling up because of backup failure

Well but that's not the previous globbing error. Actually it doesn't look like an error at all?
Do you still get https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 0#p1900860  in the status?

Re: [SOLVED] SSD filling up because of backup failure

I'm not getting the error when just running it directly. I'll run it through systemd and close this thread if it works.

Re: [SOLVED] SSD filling up because of backup failure

Why are you backing up /dev ?

Re: [SOLVED] SSD filling up because of backup failure

I'm not. It's an include list. The dash means it's being excluded.
