Hello,

I have set up an automatic backup every day but the backup of my Gitlab lxc always fails. What should I do?

My log :

Bash:

According to the rsync man page (man rsync), exit code 11 means "file I/O error". It is failing on /var/tmp/<some temp file name>, which probably means you don't have enough temporary space to hold the backup.
Thank you ! But how can I add an dedicated FS to node for this backup through web GUI ?
