Hello! I'm migrating my backups from an LVM volume to ZFS dataset, however after rsyncing the data over, I'm getting the following error: $ rdiff-backup --verify backup-zfs/hostname Warning, two different times for current mirror found Fatal Error: Metadata file '/mnt/backup-zfs/hostname/rdiff-backup-data/mirror_metadata.2021-12-23T06:17:32+02:00.diff.gz' has a duplicate timestamp date, you might not be able to recover files on or earlier than this date. Check the man page on how to clean up your repository using the '--allow-duplicate-timestamps' option. I'm unsure what to make of it or how to avoid it. I used the following rsync command to copy the data: rsync -avhA --progress --stats backup/ backup-zfs/ It seems that it breaks when I run rsync again after an initial run and when data has changed at the source by then. Thanks! Reio
