I have a server that has a lot of RAM and a good processor but very little storage. I have more than 40 applications running on this server, and it turns out that I have a lot of data and I transferred all the data from my applications that have the most gb occupied on a new volume which is a NAS-HA server from OVH and the applications work perfectly, all the data are in the right places, it works great, it's perfect. My problem is that now I can't say if it's systematic or if it's only on some backups but this message comes back very often telling me "backup failed" with this error. First of all, during my first research on the forum, I realized that someone had said that in the documentation it was said that the other volumes are not backups. This is a problem for me, if there is a solution for backups, it would be interesting for me that it is included in the server backups because there is a lot of data on the new volume storage. And that's where most of the data from my applications will now be stored. So if they are not backups, it's a problem. But when I went to see the documentation, I didn't find any backup mentions in the volume part. But I would like to know how to solve this problem that is coming more and more since I added this new volume.

@Dont-Worry said in Since I added a storage volume to my infrastructure, I've been getting this backup error message very regularly : I have something like 200gb of Emby data (and it's growing every day) you're right about that. On top we have a lot of music and a lot of youtube videos. Some files are in MP3 but the majority are in .WAV and for videos we're on .MP4. Using the encrypted tar backend for this mass of - already compressed - data is asking for trouble, IMHO. As girish pointed out, you end up with a single file of huge proportions, from the docs : " The tgz format stores all the backup information in a single tarball whereas the rsync format stores all backup information as files inside a directory. " I could be wrong but many B2C providers will probably have difficulties supporting a 200 GB + file?!
