Affa rise feature
« on: September 13, 2010, 12:31:20 PM »
Hi All,

Been having a look at the affa contrib and currently running the backup on a SME Server 7.5.1, now I've made a scheduled backup of my main server over the weekend and this morning I thought I'd test out the "rise" feature, issued on "affa --rise prodbox" ran fine and screen showed, make sure other server is disconnected from network then rebooted with "signal-event reboot"...now when I try to log in directly at console using "root" for user name  and password I used on old server it does not accept the password, even trying with "admin" and old password does not get accepted, so I thought lets try the password I used when I set up this box with Affa but...it still doesn't accept the password.

So my question, has anyone used the rise feature and the password is accepted when task is completed ? Or I wonder if my password is too complex.  I won't reset via single mode yet and I'm opening a bug ticket (see: Bug id: 6198 )

Thanks.

Just went down to single mode and found that the affa rise didn't complete due (left file system mismatched) to lack of hard disk space, while I had 350 GB available my prodbox size is 553 GB, therefore when using the affa rise feature I never had enough available space to rise to.
