Re: [Duplicity-talk] Strange reported size (--no-compression usage)

[Nate Eldredge]

Can you give the complete command line you are using?

Maybe (e-mail storage with mdbox format) but sparse files are reported with their real disk usage with du command (67GB). It can explain the 407GB but not the 21.4GB backup size, can't it ?

Do you have sparse files?

Hi everyone,

On a 67GB set of data (size reported by "du" command), I have a strange
backup size :

It is a full backup, using --no-compression option.

Why is my backup only 21.4 GB when my data is 67GB ?

And what is the "407 GB" size ?? I don't have such data !

The data is on a CephFS filesystem, using fuse, and backup destination
is multi par2+B2+S3.

Thank you.
