So after a week i was wondering why none of my backups were being pruned from the cronjob i created.
I ran the prune manually and it says it deletes a whole bunch of stuff, but always ends up stopping with "failed to rename xxxxxxx.fsl to /chunk/xx/xx/xxxxxxx/: failure.
It seems no files are actually deleted, and the job always stops here. I am backing up using SFTP and the user does have read and write access.
It attempts to rename;
942d5289e456dd4f3172161f61f454acf9b257afaea1aec8c2e6ba8aea5f.fsl
to:
942d5289e456dd4f3172161f61f454acf9b257afaea1aec8c2e6ba8aea5f
However both file exists, so its attempting to rename 942d5289e456dd4f3172161f61f454acf9b257afaea1aec8c2e6ba8aea5f.fsl to 942d5289e456dd4f3172161f61f454acf9b257afaea1aec8c2e6ba8aea5f which already exists.
When this fails, it appears that the prune job completely stops and never completed
In that case it should just delete the fossil instead of trying to turn it back into a chunk.
I fixed this bug and uploaded a new version 1.1.4 to http://acrosync.com/esxi/vertical (sha256: 8e0115deeebbf3f418ecd8f15d2ad14584201ce3512fdad4a68ea8cfcbc1d36b). Please give it a try and let me know if it works.
