[rdiff-backup-users] Increment Missing ?

[Mike Bydalek]

Hello.

I'm using rdiff-backup 1.0.4 to backup several servers, and recently I
noticed that some increments contain a "missing" - which doesn't really
settle well with me.  Actually, there are a *lot* of missing increments
from our fileserver backup:

address@hidden ~/server-root/rdiff-backup-data $ find . -name
'*.missing' -print | wc -l
824807

Here's an example increment from Jan 16th, and the increment is
missing.  How does this happen?  Is it anything serious?  Can I do
something to prevent it?

Thanks,
Mike
