Re: [BackupPC-users] Feature request: Restore Search across all shares/backups

2017-06-14 Thread Craig Barratt via BackupPC-users 
Les is right for 3.x.

For 4.x the files are not stored in the backup tree.  So you'll need to use
BackupPC_ls -R, or you could also grep the XferLOG.nnn.z files (although
the format and what appears or not depends on the XferMethod).

Examples:

BackupPC_ls -R -h HOST -n NUM -s SHARE / | egrep FILENAME

BackupPC_zcat TOPDIR/pc/HOST/XferLOG.NUM.z | egrep FILENAME


For BackupPC_ls you'll need to write a script to iterate over every HOST,
backup NUM and SHARE.  Or you could use wildcards with BackupPC_zcat for
HOST and/or NUM.

I'd rather not build this into the CGI interface, since the running times
could be very long.

You can sort-of accomplish that using 'find' on the command line at
the top of the backup tree with a pattern that may need to allow for
the filename changes used in the archive.But, I agree that having
it as an option in the web interface would be great - and there it
could even be aware of what host(s) the user is allowed to access.

Hi Tim,

There are three levels you can do this at while keeping both instances 
mostly running:


Block level: set up DBRD or similar.

Pool level: rsync your pool (slow) or send your filesystem (if supported).

Latest file level: use something like my script but sacrificing history:
https://johan.ehnberg.net/backuppc-pre-loading-seeding-and-migrating-moving-script

BackupPC does not have a facility to manage clustering though, so you 
will not be able to have both instances actively doing backups if you 
want to keep the pool.


If your clients are fast and your transfer method supports it, I would 
simply set up another instance that runs independently and in parallel, 
by only copying the configs to the new instance. Turn off automatic 
backups on the old and retire it according to your retention requirements.


Best regards,
Johan Ehnberg

Re: [BackupPC-users] Upgrade from v4.0 to V4.1.3

Hi Molly,

I updated the wiki page with upgrading notes:

https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/wiki/Installing-BackupPC-4-from-git-on-Ubuntu-Xenial-16.04-LTS

Essentially, the relevant difference is:
configure.pl --batch --config-path /etc/BackupPC/config.pl

There are also many steps you can skip since they do not relate to 
BackupPC version. See the comments for each script block.

[BackupPC-users] Feature request: Restore Search across all shares/backups

2017-06-14 Thread Bob Katz 
Is it possible to design a search tool that will look for the occurrence 
of a string in the file name across all shares/backups?


It should come up with any versions of the file, last modified date, 
etc. and what backup it is stored in. Ideally it should allow the user 
to navigate to the file in the backup and then use the normal restore 
choices to restore it.



Wouldn't that be nice? Sometimes we don't know which computer/host might 
have had the file we're looking for and/or we want to go back to an old 
version of that file.



Thanks,



Bob
