[Borgbackup] tag A or U when files are updated ?

[Ernest Chiarello]

Hi all,

i am new in that list... and I am using borgbackup to back up data 
managed by libvirt / kvm.

i want to backup /var/lib/libvirt/backups/onlyoffice folder with 
borgbackup, it has some xml files and some snapshots (.bimg), as well as 
qcow2 image.

the image weighs 14 GB.

|root at kvm610:~ # ls -lh 
/var/lib/libvirt/backups/onlyoffice/onlyoffice.qcow2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 
libvirt-qemu kvm 14G avril 12 07:17 
/var/lib/libvirt/backups/onlyoffice/onlyoffice.qcow2* |

the first borgbackup backup lasts 2m37, all the files are tagged A, 
because "added".

|root at kvm610:~ # time borg create --list 
/var/lib/libvirt/borgbackup/kvm610::trial4 
/var/lib/libvirt/backups/onlyoffice A

I then restart the same backup, in the same warehouse but with a 
different archive name (trial5). all the xml and bimg files are tagged 
U, like "updatedb", but the qcow2 image is still tagged A, even though 
it hasn't moved ... the VM has been shut down since April.

you have an idea to explain this?

and the backup time is the same ... 2m37 / 2m36

thanks in advance,


Ernest.
