When drive Full - Stop immediately

Hello Zenju,

when a (backup) drive is full (freespace = 0 Byte) then stop syncing or mirroring etc. immediately ...

What does happen, currently, when this situation occurs?

ffs runs, and try to sync all the files that should be sync, and writes all in the log.
So you have x-thousands log-entries with these errors.
And ffs finishes when all the necessary files are checked.
Having a big number of files then it takes a lot of time.

You can check how much space is needed before syncing? Don't run out of space

Ok, what about if it runs as a batch file ?

Then the storage devices should be monitored better. If there is that much data being created between syncs, a more robust backup storage setup is usually better in the long run. Everything depends on how much data you have and what size storage you are working with though.
