[lbackup-discussion] rsync errors: device not configured

[henri]

I have some additional more questions. 


(14) Which user is configured for the login into the 
     client when performing the backup? 

     For example do you have the remote user set to 
     root in the lbackup configuration eg : 
     sshRemoteUser="root"

(15) Which user on your system is running the backup?

Okay this is good. It is very likely that the custom version of rsync is being used.

(16) Do you have a different device with sufficient storage (eg ≈250G free minimum) to use as a new destination? If you do have another device with sufficient disk space I would recommend configuring a backup with the destination set to this this other device. This may also shed some light on these problems.
