Hello,
sorry for asking but I didn’t find an answer.
I have a fairly simple setup: duplicati backups to an locally attached USB HDD drive. (This is mirrored to a NAS and the cloud by some other programs.)
Now I want to restore a complete backup (1,78 TB) from the USB HDD to an local SSD drive. Temp folder is also a SSD drive. Processor AMD 16 core, 32 GB RAM, no other processes running. Restore takes nearly 15 hours.
I use the following command for restore:
"C:\Program Files\Duplicati 2\Duplicati.CommandLine.exe" restore "file://I:\Backup\Online_Backup\backup\\" "*" --version=82 --dbpath=C:\Temp\duplicati2\databases\backup.sqlite --passphrase=XXX --thread-priority=belownormal --tempdir=C:\Temp\duplicati2\tmpdir --console-log-level=Information --skip-restore-verification=true --overwrite=true --restore-path=L:\duplicati-restore\" --disable-piped-streaming --verbose
The restore-path folder is empty.
On the console I see the following log:
Restore started at 02.02.2024 08:57:11
C:\Program Files\Duplicati 2\win-tools\gpg.exe
Die Option verbose ist veraltet: Angabe des Log-Levels für die gewünschte Ausgabemethode

This runs fast, reading about 200 MB/s from the attached USB drive.
After 4 hours the process slows down and I can see, that now all files copied from the USB drive to the SSD temp folder.

Verifying restored files ...
Restore completed without errors but no files were restored
Restored 0 (0 Bytes) files to L:\duplicati-restore\Bilder_LR_Katalog_Einstellungen_daily
Duration of restore: 14:48:51
All files are restored successful, but I can not understand why duplicati has to copy files to the temp folder, because all files a locally available. Coping slows down the whole process.
No errors in the local database - I already recreated the db.
Any help welcome!
