Hello everybody, today I had to make a full restore of a client. My backup policy says: 1) Make a full backup monthly. 2) Daily incrementals. 3) Every Sunday, run differential backups.
When I make a full restore, it starts with the last Full, then the differential volumes follow and last, the incrementals. Now the problem: The files corresponding to the full backup used for the restoration were purged. And when I write "done" in the bconsole, it does not appear in the list of requiered volumes. My question is: Are the files backed up in the full volume actually restored? This is an extract of the bconsole: Building directory tree for JobId 26975 ... <--- In this jobs the Full volume was written Building directory tree for JobId 27648 ... Building directory tree for JobId 28138 ... ++ Building directory tree for JobId 28384 ... Building directory tree for JobId 28489 ... Building directory tree for JobId 28544 ... + Building directory tree for JobId 28582 ... Building directory tree for JobId 28618 ... +++ Building directory tree for JobId 28693 ... [........... output cut ................] $ done Bootstrap records written to /var/lib/bacula//some-dir.restore.5.bsr The job will require the following Volume(s) Storage(s) SD Device(s) =========================================================================== **************** <------ Here there should be the Full Volume!!!!! Server-Diff-0001 some-sd-disco FileStorage Server-Diff-0002 some-sd-disco FileStorage Server-Inc-0006 some-sd-disco FileStorage Server-Inc-0004 some-sd-disco FileStorage Server-Diff-0003 some-sd-disco FileStorage Server-Inc-0005 some-sd-disco FileStorage Will Bacula restore the files stored in the Full volume, although that volume is not listed above? If not, how can I restore those files? What I've done is the following: 1) Restore only the Full volume. Bacula says there are no files in the catalog and asks me if I want to restore everything. I said yes. 2) Restore the other volumes, in other job, to the same place. Well, I hope you can understand my doubt! jeje. Bye! And thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
