Ok. I have just started backing up /var/lib/mysql, another 15GB monster directory. I will likely have to leave it backing up over the weekend.
Monday we should be done and I can restart Nebka in normal mode.

Here is what I suggest once the backup is done:
Tim, give ssh access back, so that we can check what happened.
Ivan and/or Thomas, have a look at logs
Thomas, slice up any rsync so that it does not synchronize large file structures. I strongly suspect that was the problem.
Saturday, I will be on my way back to the US. I should be able to get back online at 8:00pm EST. I will be back on campus Monday, and can go in the machine room if necessary and thus relieve Tim from this.
