Weird file size "jumping"

MSP360 Backup Linux Backup
1

I am a new user. I’m trying out CloudBerry Backup (Linux) with Wasabi.

I’m seeing something very weird with the “Total file size” and all the other progress information shown at the bottom of the screen. It’s regularly “jumping” back and forth between “Total file size” of 1.49 GB and 1.21 GB. All the other statistics are jumping around like crazy, too.

I had previously “Stopped” a backup that seemed to have become permanently stuck on a particular file, and then restarted it. I wonder if there are two processes running? I did a “ps” and the results are shown below. Is it legit for there to be two “ccbWorker” processes running concurrently, or does this explain why I’m seeing what I’m seeing.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Greg

It appears that WAS the cause. I killed all the processes and tried again. Now it seems fine.

[reply=“gbtorrance;4474”], thanks for your update. That, indeed, could have been the cause.
Feel free to update the thread if something similar appears again.
Thanks

[reply=“Anton Zorin;4480”] Thanks!

Could something perhaps be done in the code to prevent this from occurring? Should be possible to check for the existence of running processes before starting another one, right? Just a thought. Thanks again.

[reply=“gbtorrance;4482”], I have filed a request for our devs to look into this to assess the effort.
Hopefully, we’ll be able to put it on the roadmap soon.
Thanks
