[flexbackup-help] If a backup fails...
by Phil Reynolds

In the event of a backup failing (because the machine being backed up
crashes during the process), am I right in thinking that
/var/lib/flexbackup on the host where flexbackup is run is where details
of the level and time are kept? Would deleting the last "stamp" for the
affected partition in there be the right way to make the next
incremental backup the same level as the failed one?

(I actually had such a failure this week - a Windows box crashed during
an incremental backup, with no data written.)
