Hello,
I have just added a second raid array to my bacula server and want to
have 2/3 of my incremental pool be on Array0 and the other 1/3 on Array1.
To set this up, I added a second Device to bacula-sd.conf (both devices
shown below):
Device {
Name = FileStorage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /home/bacula
LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = no;
}
Device {
Name = FileStorage2
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /hd_array0/bacula
LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = no;
}
The director has the following configuration for the client we call affypet:
JobDefs {
Name = "AffypetJob"
Type = Backup
Pool = FullBackupPool
Level = Incremental
Client = affypet-fd
FileSet = "Win32FileSet"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Storage = File
Messages = Standard
Priority = 10
}
Job {
Name = "affypet"
Client = affypet-fd
JobDefs = "AffypetJob"
Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/affypet.bsr"
}
Client {
Name = affypet-fd
Address = affypet.<snip>
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = "<snip>"
File Retention = 2 months
Job Retention = 3 months
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
# Definition of file storage device
Storage {
Name = File
Address = <snip>
SDPort = 9103
Password = "<snip>"
Device = FileStorage
Media Type = File
}
Storage {
Name = File2
Address = <snip>
SDPort = 9103
Password = "<snip>"
Device = FileStorage2
Media Type = File
}
# Full pool definition
Pool {
Name = FullBackupPool
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 56 days # almost two months
Volume Use Duration = 28 days # almost a month
Accept Any Volume = yes # write on any volume in the pool
}
# Inc pool definition
Pool {
Name = IncPool
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 28 days # almost two months
Volume Use Duration = 7 days # almost a month
Accept Any Volume = yes # write on any volume in the pool
}
# Diff pool definition
Pool {
Name = DiffPool
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 28 days # almost two months
Volume Use Duration = 13 days # almost a month
Accept Any Volume = yes # write on any volume in the pool
}
Using the label command in bconsole, it let me create 12 volumes for the
IncPool; 4 volumes on FileStorage (Device) and 8 volumes on
FileStoreage2 (Device).
This morning I got the message:
03-Oct 23:05 packrat-sd: Please mount Volume "IncVol11" on Storage Device
"FileStorage" (/home/bacula) for Job affypet.2006-10-03_23.05.00
I know that IncVol11 is on Device "FileStorage2" (/hd_array0/bacula),
which explains why the mount failed. My question is, how to set it up so
I can have one incremental pool with 12 volumes; 4 volumes on raid
array1 and 8 volumes on raid array 8. Please let me know if I left out
any information that would be helpful. Thank you in advance for any
advice you can give.
