Basically, it slows down backup process several minutes and give extra warnings to check every morning. All YaST2 profiles: Cron <root@suse-lnx> /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/backup_cron "profile=Home" Cron <root@suse-lnx> /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/backup_cron "profile=Srv-www" Cron <root@suse-lnx> /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/backup_cron "profile=System" . and so on .. I have five profiles to backup every night. But in example: Cron <root@suse-lnx> zypper up -y -t patch --skip-interactive Cron <root@suse-lnx> /usr/bin/zrm-pre-scheduler --action backup --backup-set dailyrun --backup-level 0 --interval daily Those backups give no warnings! It must be only YaST2 problem? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
