Bug ID: 266901
Summary: Backup gpart script runs even it is disabled in
periodic.conf inside jails
Product: Base System
Version: 13.1-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: misc
Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: sgubdsbeerf@asmco.de
What is happening?
I get daily mails from inside my jails with content like "Backup of
partitions information for" or "Backup of MBR record" with the error
message "No such file or directory". I think this is because there is
no MBR to backup inside a jail. I disabled backing up MBR in
periodic.conf but it seems to run nevertheless. This seems to start
after the last patch level update.
What do I expect to happen?
Not to run if it is disabled.
How to reproduce?
Set daily_backup_gpart_enable to NO in /etc/periodic.conf inside a jail
and monitor the periodic script output.
Further information
$ grep -R "Backup of partitions information for" /etc/periodic/
/etc/periodic/daily/221.backup-gpart: echo "Backup of partitions information
for:";
$ grep -R "Backup of MBR record" /etc/periodic/
/etc/periodic/daily/221.backup-gpart: echo "Backup of MBR record:"
$ grep backup_gpart /etc/periodic.conf
daily_backup_gpart_enable="NO"
