It's a backuppc archive that's been running for years (since before other filesystems knew how to create files quickly) and has millions of hardlinks. The last time I tried to copy one with a non-image method I gave up after three days - and that was a smaller drive. This is a 250 gig drive about 75% full holding about 725 gigs of raw data before backuppc's linking and compression operations. I have a 3-member raid where 2 are internal IDE drives and the 3rd is a set of external firewire drives that I periodically connect and sync (takes a couple of hours) and then rotate offsite. If there is a better way to do that these days with LVM snapshots or something, I'd consider changing the approach even if it means starting over, but I need some way to do an image copy with no downtime - or just a momentary unmount of the filesystem so the copy is clean. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
