Hi,
thanks for all the feedback.

Unless you really need the automatic fall-over to the next storage, you can
also set up a vchanger. That way you can also control fixed number of
fixed-size volumes. I prefer this approach to dynamicaly created media files
but YMMV.
Yes, I thought to use something like this, in the beginning, too - but I
thought, it would be more complex, thus decided for the current variant.
Can you share the relevant vchanger config with me, please?

It is possible to move volumes between devices see:

That said if your volumes and devices are all interchangeable I would
configure the system to all work with them as a single entry.
You mean: mount them all on the same mountpoint? This is not possible
simultanously, so how do I choose the correct block device, that bareos
currently "wants"?
Generally this means all your disk based volumes are in a single folder
(really not an issue) so the device path all point to the same location.
For disk volumes devices are ‘virtual’ and almost not real but a hold over
from scheduling tape drives and other external media.
Another path, I was considering, was to use disks like one would otherwise
use tapes. Has anyone done that before and could send me a guide? Or is
this identical to the approach with the autochanger above?

Hi,
I have a file-based backup with bareos with mutliple disks to store the
files on:
- --------8<---------
Device {
Name = mnt
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt
LabelMedia = yes;
Random Access = yes;
AutomaticMount = yes;
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
Description = "File device. A connecting Director must have the same Name
and MediaType."
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
}
- -------->8---------
and
- --------8<---------
Device {
Name = mnt2
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt2
LabelMedia = yes;
Random Access = yes;
AutomaticMount = yes;
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
Description = "File device. A connecting Director must have the same Name
and MediaType."
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
}
- -------->8--------
upto mnt5.
It has used other stores than mnt in the past:
# df -h /var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt*
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/bcrypt 1.4T 1.3T 0 100% /var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt
/dev/mapper/bcrypt2 1.4T 973G 332G 75% /var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt2
/dev/mapper/bcrypt3 1.4T 299G 1006G 23% /var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt3
/dev/mapper/bcrypt4 916G 77M 870G 1% /var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt4
/dev/mapper/bcrypt5 916G 77M 870G 1% /var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt5
However, now it is stuck, trying to put "Differential-0464" onto "mnt",
which is full (as you can see above):
20-Apr 08:02 bareos-sd JobId 869: Warning: stored/mount.cc:274 Open
device "mnt" (/var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt) Volume "Differential-0464"
failed: ERR=stored/dev.cc:746 Could not open:
/var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt/Differential-0464, ERR=No such file or
directory
Where is my error?
regards,

Hi,
I restarted the machine which runs the storage daemon and the director
(which aborted all the differential backups). This evening, it scheduled
the usual incremental backups, reused some old volumes and now runs out of
incremental volume space:
20-Apr 21:50 bareos-sd JobId 896: Warning: stored/mount.cc:274 Open device
"mnt" (/var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt) Volume "Incremental-0471" failed:
ERR=stored/dev.cc:746 Could not open:
/var/lib/bareos/storage/mnt/Incremental-0471, ERR=No such file or
directory
I fear, I have done something really simple wrong, because this looks like
it should be a simple setup :-(
Just for sake of completeness, here my
/etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d/storage/File.conf:
- ----8<----
Storage {
Name = File
Address = sd.example.com
Password = "secret"
Device = mnt
Device = mnt2
Device = mnt3
Device = mnt4
Device = mnt5
Media Type = File
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
}
- ---->8----
Another question as a workaround: Is it possible to move volumes from one
device to another? If so: how? Can I simply move the file and bareos will
correctly identify it again? Or is there a command in bconsole to do that
(I could not find one)?
regards,
Erich
