Why does kopiaUI fails to create snapshot on macOS 11.2.1?

I have recently updated to macOS to 11.2.1 and since then I do have an issue with one of my two Kopia backups. I do two backups, one on a USB3 NVMe drive and one to a Kopia server, which hosts it’s repo on a ZFS volume.

The erron in the cli-log shows this, when the snapshot fails on the Kopia server:

Soo… “read: operation timed out”, is this on the client or the server?

Is this a one-time blip or happening consistently?

Kopia appears to be waiting for response from the server and timing out.

Okay… however, this always seems to happen at the same objects, KopiaUI tries to check. How can I dig into this further - I’d rather like to keep my server repo and not wipe it out. This also doesn’t seem to be a problem with the server itself, since my other KopiaUI client runs just fine, with the same repo.

Is it always the first object that’s causing trouble?

It goes to 292.4GB from 703.5 GB and then stalls. When I look at the content-logs there is still something going on, but it seems that these lines seem to be repeated over and over again:

It actually went a bit further, but gave up eventually. I have now decided to re-create this repo from scratch, but I’d welcome some pointers on how to approch this, should this happen again.

Please don’t. Let’s understand what’s going on. Can you hop on slack so we can investigate interactively?

Ehh… too late… sorry, but I really wanted to get my server repo back up and running. I promise, that I will do better next time, though.

This is telling me that the client keeps sending content that was already backed up. This is generally a no-op server side but will send potentially a bunch of data over the wire. I think probably waiting enough time would have completed the snapshot.

Well… at least KopiaUI seems to disagree, since at one time, the operation got aborted and KopiaUI showed a 0 Byte snapshot. I will hold m horses the next time and we might be able to get down to the root cause then.

Since this wasn’t the first snaptshot, I’d assume that most of the content was already in the repo. This repo has been in use for a couple of weeks without any issue up to a couple of days ago.

I found a possible performance improvement for this case. We can avoid uploading the content and deduplicating it server-side if the client can locally hash the data and check that the server already has it, thus avoiding 20MB+ uploads.

Oh well… I actually thought, that the client would do that already. However, even if a content blob would need re-uplaoding, it shoudln’t kill the snapshot in the end, should it?

I am still clueless as of why this happened in the first place and it seems, that I am still getting these error, despite the fact, that I re-created the repo. So, we might be still able to take a closer look at the kopia server. If this helps… I also got there error this night, when my Mac was performing the initial snapshot…

Suggests that some network issue may be at fault and disabling checksum offloading fixes the problem.

I will be available to debug this in couple more hours. Ping me on slack if you can.

You mean, disable checksum off-loading on the client or on the server? From the quoted issue on github, I assume, that it should be done on the client. So on macOS, the only thing I can come up with is:

sudo sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.tso=0

I will check, if that helps when I am home… However, this would be likely a serious issue for all Mac Users, since the update to 11.2 already removed all of my former tweaks in /etc/sysctl.conf…

I honestly don’t know. Will upgrade my Mac to 11.2 and will see.

Soo… I had the chance to take a lool at the cli-log while KopiaUI had been stalling for a long time and I found out, that it was churning at the Apple Mail V8 folder - which I also got new, when I updated to 11.2. I am usually not a Apple Mail person, so this either would have or would have not been an issue before, but as I said, I am simply not using Apple Mail - I only had it configured for testing purposes.

I disabled, removed and cleaned up Apple Mail’s remnants and tried once more - issue gone.

Just that you can get glimpse… my modest mailbox was 1.4GB in size, but it contained a lot of very small files:
