That's a good question and we are trying to find a good answer in
`ticket 636 <https://github.com/borgbackup/borg/issues/636>`_.
Why am I seeing idle borg serve processes on the repo server?
-------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe the ssh connection between client and server broke down and that was not
yet noticed on the server. Try these settings:
::
# /etc/ssh/sshd_config on borg repo server - kill connection to client
# after ClientAliveCountMax * ClientAliveInterval seconds with no response
ClientAliveInterval 20
ClientAliveCountMax 3
If you have multiple borg create ... ; borg create ... commands in a already
serialized way in a single script, you need to give them --lock-wait N (with N
being a bit more than the time the server needs to terminate broken down
connections and release the lock).
The borg cache eats way too much disk space, what can I do?
