Customer reported EPIPE errors on multiple Backup2Go workstations. Workstations were not being backed up. B2Go Server: ... Workstation log: ...
The issue here was not a network comnnectivity error, but the fact that the volume the Backup2Go repository resided on was at least 90 percent full. The Backup2Go server stops performing workstation backups once the volume utilization has reached that 90 percent threshold. P5 needs the remaining 10 percent for caching, maintenance and janitorial tasks. The bigger the volume, the more space P5 needs for those purposes - hence the percentage threshold, as opposed to a fixed number of GB. From the 5.0.5 release notes: "B2Go backup stops if the available space on the filesystem where repository is pointing to drops below 10 %." | |

Some of our Backup2 go client displays the same logs. But the volume is not full :
(mine a 10.10.3 mac os client, backup2go client and server versions : 4.4.12) :
