chiara local backup of /cvs/cds has not been running since the move of chiara in Nov 19. The remote backup has not been taken since 2017.
The lack of the local backup was because of the misconfiguration of /etc/fstab.
It was fixed and now the backup disk was mounted. We'll see the backup script running tomorrow morning.
The backup disk is smaller than the main disk. So sooner or later, we will face the backup problem again.
localbackup script was crying because there was no backup disk.
