    Yes we are using the latest version as we need to support xfs backup for some of our client.

    No issues with current backup for both non-xfs and xfs

  • No don't upgrade to it! its been one of the worst disasters in the history of r1soft, backups take 2 or 3 times the time the took with previous versions.

    @zafouhar we actually see better backup performance. Did you check that your disksafe location is not hit with high IO activity?

    Yes I did, R1sot actually has confirmed its a bug already, they are troubleshooting their bug.

    My biggest issue with r1soft right now is that it doesn't like software raid on CentOS 7 so when it can't backup the partition table it marks the task as partially failed.

    I wish I had, I reported the issue with backups taking longer now, they got access to my r1soft server and a few of my servers being backed up and they told me they located the "bug" and will fix it in the next release.

    Now knowing how slow r1soft is I wouldn't expect the fix until 2017 lol

  • Hello,

    Is it just me or the backups with their new version are taking much more time ??
    I have now switched to new disk safes. (i.e. not the one converted from old to new version) and even then the backup time seems to be too long for a few GB.

    Anyone else having issue with 5.14.3/4
