Affa Backup Question
« on: April 26, 2021, 06:04:11 AM »
Hello everyone, its been awhile that i have posted here at the forum been almost 5 years already its not that I been away it just sme rocks and trouble is manageable from time to time I been reading some of the topics here. Anyway enough for the intro, The reason that I have posted here is that just to clarify something and this new to me been using affa for a very long time and stable. Though just recently I need to unfortunately encounter hardware error on my server and I need to restore the backups from Affa. One thing weird is that mostly of backups have S0 on the table see but now it unusual i dont see any. See attach pic. Is this normal or did miss something here? Can I full restore my backup without a proble?

Thanks you very much and power to SME community and the Team that keeps this community up and running!

I am not affa user, but from what I read :

configuration : scheduled S=0  daily D=7 weekly W=4 monthly M=3 yearly Y=0

scheduled and yearly are set to 0 and you do not have any, that's normal.

One think that could be confusing, is the setup ask you how many you want, and the count is done from 0 to 9, and not from 1 to 10. Then you expect maybe to have a S0 when configuration is set to 0...

maybe there used to be  a bug there and it was fixed https://viewvc.koozali.org/smecontribs/rpms/smeserver-affa/contribs10/smeserver-affa.spec?revision=1.3
