Ideally, you need to make sure that the directories where the databases
are stored are backed up, but the contents of the directories are not.
In the event of a disaster recovery restore, Exchange will not restore
if the directories do not exist. It is of course sufficient just to
mkdir them before you do the restore.

When you create a recovery storage group for a specific database, any
attempt to restore that database gets automatically diverted to the
recovery storage group. As long as the database in the recovery storage
group is set to 'can be overwritten by restore', and the real database
is not, you shouldn't break anything.

Sorry I forgot this.

I'm using 2.4.4 on the director, so I suppose any older release will do.

My Sun/Solaris skills are a bit rusty nowadays, I didn't know where to
search for this. I'll look into these websites ASAP.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Jerome,

Don't know what version you're looking for in particular. At least
Bacula 2.2.8 is on Blastwave or OpenCSW. I should really figure out how
to and then release a set of current ones. I'm sure it's not a difficult
task.

[Bacula-users] Does someone have bacula-fd for SunOS 5.8 ?

[Jerome Alet]

Hi,

I've got an old Sun box that I'd like to integrate into our Bacula
setup.

oursunbox:/# uname -a
SunOS oursunbox 5.8 Generic_108528-13 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2

Since this machine doesn't even have any C compiler installed, I'd like
to know if someone with a similar OS and a bacula client installed on it
could send the necessary files to me to have bacula-fd run.

Thanks in advance

[Bacula-users] Director connection failure -- FD and SD on same machine

[Paul Binkley]

Greetings,

 

I am having an issue in that the director cannot communicate with a
particular file daemon. The file daemon in question is running on the same
machine as the storage daemon.

 

If the file daemon is not running, the director has no problem with any
other file daemons, but if the fd in question is running, the director can
communicate with other clients only until a failed try with the problem fd.

 

The included console output shows this anomaly. Notice that the estimate
works fine for 2 different clients, then fails when trying to access the
"bad" client, then can no longer access the previously good clients.

 

Also possibly of note is the fact that the Fatal Error line shows that the
director seems to be stuck on the bad fd (xxx.xxx.0.70:9102) after the
original failure.

 

Thanks for any suggestions.

[Bacula-users] Bacula plugin exchange 2003 backup

[Giuseppe De Nicolo']

Hello all,

I m finally configuring my test configuration to run exchange 
backup, I configured my fd like this after reading this 
http://www.bacula.org/3.0.x-manuals/en/concepts/concepts/New_Features.html#SECTION00320
to my unbderstanding I have to backup the stores using the plugin and 
not the file selction  ( I would do like that also utilizing Windows 
backup ) I excluded VSS and db filesystem  backup.

FileSet {
   Name = "Earendil Set"
   Enable VSS = no
   Include {
 Options {
signature = MD5
compression = GZIP9
IgnoreCase = yes
}
Plugin = "exchange:/@EXCHANGE/Microsoft Information Store"
}
   Exclude {
  File = C:/Program Files/Exchsrvr/Archivio
  File = C:/Program Files/Exchsrvr/Dirigenza
  File = C:/Program Files/Exchsrvr/mdbdata
  File = C:/Program Files/Exchsrvr/Responsabili 
} 
}
At the moment the backup is undergoing 20 gb and running so I assume 
everything is ok ( at least on backup ), I would then try to do a 
restore on the Recovery group I know how to do this in windows but it is 
not really clear in my mind how to do that using bconsole is there some 
documentation describing these steps ?

Thank you all

 Hi All,

 Since the upgrade to 3.0.3 our test server have this strange
 behavior , the first job after bacula start up runs fine all others get
 in line as "job is waiting execution" and nothing happens, restarting
 bacula reset job lists and again only the first job run fine.

Well in the end I solved this problem ... disintstalling bacula ... 
dropped the db  recompiled the 3.0.3 then reinstalled ... I know would

Perhaps the port's Makefile can be changed to use Bacula's make install like
bacula-bat.spec does for the rpms?  That must be better than adding more
hacks...
