[Bacula-users] bacula 2.0.1 error in xp
hello! sorry, but my english is very poor. I installed bacula 2.0.1 in windows xp (spanish version). When i executed the bacula-dir.exe, i have this error: bacula-dir.exe: ERROR TERMINATION at ../../lib/parse_conf.c: 819 config error: Cannot open config file "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Bacula\bacula-dir.conf": No such file or directory. NOTE: In windows XP spanish version the path is diferent: "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Datos de Programa\Bacula\bacula-dir.conf" NOTE: I'm serching in bacula-dir.conf, to change the path. But all path are ok for the spanish version. NOTE: I created a path "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Bacula\". And i linked the config files of bacula. It don't work. The version of bacula 2.0.0 in windows xp haven't this problem. It is a bug? Andres - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Bacula-users] qt-console
Hello, This is just to let you know that I have now committed the first cut of the qt-console (the name until voting is completed) to the Source Forge CVS. The new directory is: /src/qt-console the current procedure is: cd /src/qt-console make the program will be named qt-console. I've improved the layout somewhat, but I have not yet figured out how to limit the size of the left window compared to the right window. I would like the left window to remain unchanged when the Window is resized. It would change size horizontally only when the size bar is moved. The window on the right, should grow/shrink with the main window being resized. In addition, I have not figured out how to get the silly widgets within the containers to grow to fill the container. Oh well, that will surely come. Finally, if you know how to hook other window classes (dialogs) in subdirectories into the Stacked Widget, please let me know. I envision to have each major item in the left "browser" or "function" window pull up dialogs in the right window that are in a subdirectory (e.g. restore, backup, reports, ...). Each subdirectory can contain one or more forms (xxx.ui) that will be used depending on how the user proceeds through the dialogs, ... Anyone who can figure out any of the above, please let me know. Otherwise, with a bit of time and reading on Qt, I'll get there. If you are wondering about what the windows should contain. The left window is meant to be a tree that looks very similar to a browser directory tree in many windows -- e.g. Windows Explorer. The items represent Bacula daemons and actions you can perform (restore, backup, see the catalog, ...). Some of the items will open to expose sub-items. For example a Restore item could have under it 5 or 10 different ways to restore (all, by file, by date, ...). Once an item is clicked in the left tree window, the right window, which is a set of StackedWidgets will display the appropriate "dialog" for the thing that you have chosen. In some cases, such as the console, this will simply be a Text window. In other cases, it may be a tabbed window, and in others simply something that looks like a dialog box. Everyone on these lists who has been using a GUI has seen this kind of interface before. If my description is not clear, it will become so after we are able to fill in a few real items and make them functional.

I think it's on the roadmap for IET (iSCSI Enterprise Target), but still vapourware at this stage, although I think I just saw a patch to implement a virtual DVD burner.

Well, disk-changer is a sort of virtual autochanger that works on disk. It does test the autochanger functionality quite well, but at the low level, the I/O interface is to file, so it does not test the exact read/write part of a tape drive. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

The disk-changer script simulates the mtx-changer script rather faithfully,
though it does not detect certain error conditions. Thus removing the
Autochanger resource will not get you anywhere.
The script is documented in the beginning of the file. Other than that, since
I wrote it for quickly debugging the Autochanger code, it is not supported.
Sorry, but you are pretty much on your own.

Are you using designer? If you are, send me the UI file and I will give it a
look today. If you are not... it's more involved :-)

[Bacula-users] Bacula 2.0.0 Verify VolumeToCatalog Error
Hello,
Today I ran a Verify (VolumeToCatalog) to see if my files were written
correctly to tape.
I have a fileset that looks like this:
Include {
File = /test
File = /test/part1
File = /test/part2
File = /test/part3
}
/test is a phyisically mounted disk on the root system, and part1-3 are
also physically mounted disks.
When I run a verify against this, I'm getting:
18-Jan 14:09 bacula-dir: The following files are missing:
18-Jan 14:09 bacula-dir: /test/part1/
18-Jan 14:09 bacula-dir: /test/part2/
18-Jan 14:09 bacula-dir: /test/part3/
However, i can recover all files which reside under /test, under
/test/part1/, etc ...
I suspect the directory i-nodes (part1-3) are not backupped because they
are "hidden" by the mount? Though, why am I getting an error with Verify
then, I guess they are in the catalog ... ?
Thanks!

Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] bacula 2.0.1 error in xp
This is a bug in Kern's 2.0.1 fix for old versions of the shell (circa NT4). Unfortunately it broke all non-English systems and all systems that aren't installed on the C drive. I have a fix I'll check in today for those that build from the CVS. You can work around it by specifying the -c command line option. However the Director is normally run as a service. The installer should automatically install it with the correct command line option. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Erich Prinz Sent: Thursday, January 18, 2007 6:56 AM To: Andres Sanchez Garcia Cc: bacula-devel Development; bacula-users Subject: Re: [Bacula-devel] [Bacula-users] bacula 2.0.1 error in xp It's likely due to language differences.

For us it isn't currently all that big a deal, and we may even be able to handle it through a change to the process: as the last step before rebooting, go back and assign that partition to E: again. BTW: the machine that I have been testing on is a clone of our Domain Controller / Exchange Server. With the exception of the minor glitches mentioned above, after the restore the system came up just fine and users were able to log in and get their at their email. I'm still not an expert with Windows (and I intend to keep it that way), but are there other potential issues with restoring Domain Controllers / Exchange Servers / other MS servers (other than data-loss between backup and crash) that I've missed? /dwight -- Dwight Tovey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Work to Live : Live to Ride : Ride to Work - Take Surveys.

[Bacula-users] Compression Issue
Hi all !
I'm new in Bacula and I'm testing it to implement in my network.
I'm using this backup strategy:
Sunday => Full Backup on Tape
Mon-Sat => Differential Backup on FileStorage
This is my Schedule section:
Schedule {
Name = "Weekly"
Run = Full sun at 12:00
Run = Differential mon-sat sun at 18:00
FullPool = Tape
DifferentialPool = File
}
I'm using "compression = GZIP" in my FileSet section, but I know that
it's not a good idea use this option with a DDS-4 tape drive with
hardware compression enabled. Moreover, it will run software and
hardware compression, using CPU without need.
So, are there a way to enable software compression only on "File"
backups using the same Schedule and FileSet ? Any sugestion ? :-)
Thanks !
Fabricio.

I suspect these are all 32-bit libraries, so maybe you have a 32-bit (i686) version of FC6 installed? If so, you need the i686 (or i386 etc) version of bacula too. __Martin - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Bacula-users] Bacula trying to write to device rather than mount point when using USB removable storage device
I'm doing some testing using v2.0.1 with a USB storage device. In this case,
it
is an Iomega REV USB drive, but essentially, it could be any USB mass storage
device.
Here is the configuration for the SD:
Device {
Name = "_REV-USB"
MediaType = "Iomega REV, USB"
ArchiveDevice = "/dev/scd0"
LabelMedia = "yes"
RandomAccess = "yes"
AutomaticMount = "yes"
RemovableMedia = "yes"
AlwaysOpen = "yes"
DeviceType = "File"
RequiresMount = "yes"
MountPoint = "/var/bacula/mnt/rev/usb"
MountCommand = "/bin/mount %a %m"
UnmountCommand = "/bin/umount %m"
MaximumVolumeSize = 70GB
}
Note, I put the DeviceType = "File" because otherwise Bacula thinks it is a DVD
device and requires the "Write Command" directive.
I know you *could* put the 'ArchiveDevice' directive as the mountpoint (in this
case /var/bacula/mnt/rev/usb/), however, then you would required the user to
mount/umount the device, or use the RunBefore/After scripts. Using the
similarities to DVD and the additional directives when "Requires Mount" = yes
is
so much more elegant.
The problem is that Bacula is trying to write to the device (/dev/scd0), rather
than the mount point. The exact message when you try and label the volume is:
*
Connecting to Storage daemon _REV-USB at 192.168.2.185:9103 ...
Sending label command for Volume "Default-0001" Slot 0 ...
3910 Unable to open device "_REV-USB" (/dev/scd0): ERR=dev.c:482 Could not
open: /dev/scd0/Default-0001, ERR=Not a directory
Label command failed for Volume Default-0001.
Do not forget to mount the drive!!!
*
Has anyone got a USB mass storage device to work in 2.0.1?
Can anyone tell me if this is:
a) Corrected by fixing my configuration
b) Not an advised (or supported) method to mount USB mass storage devices
c) An anomaly of the Iomega REV drive that is "part File, part DVD" in
terms of how Bacula treats the device
d) A bug
Thanks in advance.

All true. You could turn off hardware compression, though.

Bad news: I don't think that's possible.
Would be good, but you'd have tind someone to implement it :-)

RequiresMount, MountPoint, unmountCommand are for DVDs only.

Yes. Or rather, the directives above don't apply to file storage.

Not me, but I know of others. Well, I kind of have - I operate simple
usb disks but without any special consideration regarding mounting etc.
These are setups where the disks are not meant to be removed.
Josh Fishers "Removable Disk Howto revised" is probably interesting for
you - you find it searching in the list archives.

Yes. But probably diferent than what you intend.

Yes.

Don't know.
>d) A bug
No.
There's one other option, by the way: Try to understand how writing to
DVD works for Bacula. Then, create a script similar to dvd-handler -
basically, you could replace the invocations of growisofs with a cp, ge
the available space using df, and so on.
My original idea was that dvd-handler could be used as a template for
low performance storage systems like ftp, CD-RW and others, but
currently Bacula reads directly, so whatever media you use, you must be
able to mount it for reading. Writing can be done by a handler script.

Windows does its own drive letter assignments which it stores in its registry - with new partitions that is not signed it does its own thing upon boot - that's why sometimes when you restore images containing a windows installation with more than one partition, sometimes it cannot boot or more precisely it can boot but noone can login because it swaps the partitions, because it registers the partitions as new.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula trying to write to device rather than mount point when using USB removable storage device
Thanks for the reply Arno.
The manual certainly seems to be converging on the idea that USB and DVD SD's
are handled similarly:
http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Storage_Daemon_Configuratio.html#SECTION00175
OK...not in the 18pt font header, but certainly in the content of the
documentation in the following sections...
Hmmm
Confused which direction to take.

[Bacula-users] building directory tree for restore takes long time
I'm trying to test the restore functionality of our backup system using bacula 1.38.11 under Yellow Dog Linux on an XServe G5. Everything is working great, except for the restore time. Building the directory tree from the MySQL DB takes forever (2 hrs + ). However this is normal, I *think*, due to the fact that the jobID I'm selecting from is our whole filesystem, 45,000,000 files. If only the option 11 under *restore all command worked recursively. Although I would probably have the same problem if that were the case. Do I just need to chop up the job into multiple jobs or are there other ways to improve performance with this? Also, is it possible this is recursively following symbolic links and that's why it takes so long? What does "building the directory tree" do exactly?

Right, but I guess the manual needs some work there. Or I'll have to
look up Kerns mails regarding how he implemented better removable disk
handling :-)

You must set this directive to yes for DVD-writers, and to no for
all other devices (tapes/files). This directive indicates if the device
requires to be mounted to be read, and if it must be written in a
special way. If it set, Mount Point, Mount Command, Unmount Command and
Write Part Command directives must also be defined." does not make
sense. Unless, of course, you take the path I mentioned - use a special
handler script to copy part files (which is more or less nonsense).
Anyway, the above snippet states that when you set RequiresMount, the
device "must be written in a special way". Which is not why you use
removable USB devices... Also, it states that it must be set to no for
files. Which contradicts the lines under the heading which you probably
referred to.

I'm quite sure Kern presented his way of using removable USB storage
devices, and I suppose Joshs HowTo might be interesting.

Shouldn't be, provided that it's Windows 2003 and you've used VSS to back it up, and have applied the recommended updates from Microsoft which corrected a few nasty problems with VSS. If the Domain Controller you are restoring is one of several, then there are a few things to consider when you restore one that's been down for more than a short time, as it will have gotten out of sync. One thing that Microsoft do well is document the procedures required for this sort of thing. A google search with "site:support.microsoft.com" in it is a wonderful thing (you can search from support.microsoft.com of course, but it sucks to do so :) One advantage of being an expert on Windows (I spend most of my working day immersed in Exchange, SQL, and Active Directory issues, so I think I qualify!), is that people will take you seriously when you offer an opinion on the virtues of Linux and open source software, and will view you as less of a zealot.

[Bacula-users] Windows (FD v2.0.1): ClientRunBeforeJob
I am trying to call a .BAT file using ClientRunBeforeJob. The config used to work fine before upgrading the Windows FD 2.0.1. It looks like the syntax in my bacula-dir.conf file is correct. It looks like the .BAT file is being called, and for some reason there is a problem with the .BAT file. Taking Bacula out of the equation, running the .BAT file works without any problem. Possibly the environment/context that the Bacula FD runs under is different then the user I am using to run the .BAT file. The security on the actual files appears to be correct for the SYSTEM user, which is what I believe is the context for the Bacula FD. Perhaps someone can lend some assistance. Here is what is reported from Bacula's messages. ClientRunBeforeJob: run command ""C:/Program Files (x86)/Bacula/bin/backup_systemstate.bat"" ClientRunBeforeJob: ClientRunBeforeJob: C:\WINDOWS\system32>C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntbackup backup systemstate /F C:\SystemState\systemstate.bkf ClientRunBeforeJob: 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntbackup' is not recognized as an internal or external command, ClientRunBeforeJob: operable program or batch file. ClientRunBeforeJob: ClientRunBeforeJob: C:\WINDOWS\system32>exit 0 Yes, C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntbackup, does exist and is the correct PATH. Thanks. -- Scott - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Use the OS udev feature, tell Bacula the USB is a file, point it at the mount
point, and tell Bacula that it is removable, and things should more or less
work out OK. Tha is the OS will automatically mount it when it is plugged
in, and Bacula will ask you to mount it when it is not there, you plug it in
and the OS will mount it, then you enter "mount" in bconsole, and Bacula
should be happy.
If a different USB is mounted on the specified device (mount point), Bacula
will scan it to see if there are any appendable volumes (essentially
identical to the case of having a different tape in the drive). If there are
appendable volumes on the currently mounted USB device, Bacula will use them,
otherwise (provided you set it as removable), Bacula will request you to
mount the proper volume.

Re: [Bacula-users] Windows (FD v2.0.1): ClientRunBeforeJob
Hi Scott, I might be completely wrong but have you tried to append .exe to the ntbackup command? On my systems at least the full path is c:\WINDOWS\system32\ntbackup.exe Microsoft normally tries to be nice and append the .exe extension automatically, but something may have changed in the latest version that interferes with that. However, it also hides the extension in by default in Explorer which leads to confusion more often than not in my experience. What version were you running before upgrading? And what version of Windows are you running? The answers to the above might help others answer your original question. Hope this helps, Troy Daniels. Perth Systems Admin. iTouch Australia (pty) ltd.

Are you saying that this worked in version 2.0.0 and is broken in 2.0.1? There was a change in the finding the default path for the conf files, but I don't remember anything affecting execution of programs. If you are saying that it worked on 1.38.x and not on 2.0.x, that is quite possible as a lot of code has been changed, and I think (hope) that it is just a matter of getting your syntax correct -- e.g. as someone suggested, include the .bat, ... > > It looks like the syntax in my bacula-dir.conf file is correct.
