bash script going to check if the system has been backed up today and and if it hasn't then it copies the entire filesystem into the backups folder: date=$(date +"%m%d%y") sudo mkdir -p "/backups/system/$date" sudo cp -r "/" "/backups/system/$date" My problem is that when I enter this it gives me these errors: cp: error reading ‘/proc/1/task/1/mem’: Input/output error cp: failed to extend ‘/backups/system/040315/proc/1/task/1/mem’: Input/output error cp: error reading ‘/proc/1/task/1/clear_refs’: Invalid argument cp: failed to extend ‘/backups/system/040315/proc/1/task/1/clear_refs’: Invalid argument

command-line bash backup cp share|improve this question edited Apr 3 '15 at 15:14 asked Apr 3 '15 at 15:11 Demosthenes 113 2 I can see a couple of potential issues. As /backups is a subdirectory of /, then the backups directory itself will be included in the backup. Also, /proc doesn't contain any actual files, it holds virtual files used by the system as it runs; you don't need or even want to be making backups of those. –Carl H Apr 3 '15 at 15:18 6 That is not the best of backup strategies. See help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem and help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR –bodhi.zazen Apr 3 '15 at 15:20 many of the problems with your backup strategy are discussed in detail in the second link I gave you. –bodhi.zazen Apr 3 '15 at 15:21 Better to make errors when trying to back up then not to make any back-ups at all! ;-) Have a look here for a good back-up strategy –Fabby Apr 8 '15 at 20:41 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 6 down vote In Linux everything is a file (That does not mean you can back them up) Technically everything is not files (I am no expert). However, some folders are special in the sense that they are not real folders. /proc is just one of them. It is a virtual file system that contai

Good luck to you. –JJD Sep 5 '12 at 22:52 add a comment| 3 Answers 3 active oldest votes up vote 4 down vote The most likely problem is a faulty disk, unless the disk is mounted over a network, in that case, I believe network issues could also cause that. It is likely that the size impact is statistical, especially in the network case (i.e. the chance of failure increases with size because more operations are involved and each has a chance to fail). share|improve this answer answered Feb 18 '10 at 13:22 Ofir 1,3261714 I have had this for days! It definitely is a faulty disk. This error usually goes hand-in-hand with the Bad Sector error. You don't have to replace your disk. Just do a full backup, reinstall your OS (this will ostracize bad sectors), restore from backup. You're golden. –Yasky Apr 13 '13 at 17:15 add a comment| up vote 3 down vote The only time I have ever seen cp giving this error

- its 4.5GB. I have obtained a shared lock on the db and attempted to copy the file from another shell ... I get the following errors ... cp: error writing ‘/home/danhartropp/test/backend/data/data.db’: Input/output error cp: failed to extend ‘/home/danhartropp/test/backend/data/data.db’: Input/output error Is this likely to be due to the size of the file, or is there something else going on? Thanks Dan danhartropp | 11 posts | March 18, 2015, 3:22 p.m. | permalink Hi Dan, it is likely that cp tries to put the whole db into RAM, which is causing your process to look like it is going crazy and so is getting killed. Perhaps you could try rsyncing? Basically just rsync source-file target-file instead of cp source-file target-file See here for more info. conrad | 891 posts | PythonAnywhere staff| | March 18, 2015, 6:05 p.m. | permalink We did have a couple of file server glitches around that time today, so it may be worth just retrying? harry | 1869 posts | PythonAnywhere staff| | March 18, 2015, 6:15 p.m. | permalink Hi guys, Tried cp again this morning - same error as before. rsync also failed ... error message is below. Immediately after I tried rsync, the whole backend (dashboard, forums etc) dropped out for a couple of minutes, with a 502-backend error. The rysnc error message was rsync: write failed on "/home/danhartropp/test/backend/data/data.db": Input/output error (5) rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(389) [receiver=3.1.0] Please can someone have a look at this as a matter of urgency ... I'm getting nervous that I am unable to back up my data. Dan danhartropp | 11 posts | March 19, 2015, 10:15 a.m. | permalink Hi Dan, that does sound like there may be an issue. We'll take a look. In the meantime, we might be able to do the backup for you manually. Do you want us to make a copy of that file and put it somewhere? In the medium term, you might consider a migration to a different database as well? I think that, at a db size of several gigs, sqlite may not be the right answer... Especially when it's stored on an NFS filesystem, as it will be on PA... harry | 1869 posts | PythonAnywhere staff| | March 19, 2015, 10:22 a.m. | permalink Thanks - if you could move it manually, that would be great.
