[Bacula-users] Bacula asking for volume which isn't in the library...
Dear all, I'm using Bacula 1.36.3 and i've got a small problem.. Also, please view this email in Courier font to make it easier to read. After submitting a job to do a restore on Friday, it asked me to insert tape 000105L2, so I put it in the library and did update slots. The restore job didn't kick off like I expected it to. I had to manually load the tape using the mtx-changer script, then type mount in bconsole. So that's one problem. The other problem is, when the backup kicked off on Friday, this is what happened. 13-Jan 21:00 backup2-dir: Start Backup JobId 1548, Job=SERVER1-Daily.2006-01-13_21.00.00 13-Jan 21:04 backup2-dir: Pruned 16 Jobs on Volume 000105L2 from catalog. 13-Jan 21:04 backup2-sd: SERVER1-Daily.2006-01-13_21.00.00 Warning: Director wanted Volume 000145L2.

[Bacula-users] Extensions to query.sql (was: problems with update slots)
Hello, On 1/15/2006 11:17 PM, Arno Lehmann wrote: ... But, and this might be something worth a feature request (Kern, are you reading this ;-) there should be a pre-defined query to print out which volumes are loaded into which slots in which storage device.

I'll make that query available tomorrow, and let somone else fix the portability - but I guess that query might help a lot resolving such problems... Ok, here is what I added to my query.sql file. Nte that it works with MySQL only - the only PostgreSQL installation I have available uses file based backups, so there never was much need to make these queries portable. And doing this by simply writing portable SQL is, unfortunately, beyond my SQL capabilities :-) You will have to correct some line breaks, I notice. cut here # 16 :List last 25 Jobs ordered by start time with long status: SELECT JobId,Name,StartTime,Type,Level,JobFiles,JobBytes,JobStatusLong AS Status FROM Job LEFT JOIN Status ON Job.JobStatus=Status.JobStatus ORDER BY StartTime DESC LIMIT 25; # 17 :List which media bacula thinks is in changer: SELECT MediaId,VolumeName,VolBytes/(1024*1024*1024) AS GB,Storage.Name AS Storag e,Slot,Pool.Name AS Pool,MediaType,VolStatus FROM Media,Storage LEFT JOIN Pool ON Media.PoolId=Pool.PoolId WHERE (Slot 0) AND (InChanger=1) AND Media.StorageId=Storage.StorageId ORDER BY MediaType ASC, Slot ASC; # 18 :List media metadata concerning life-time SELECT VolumeName AS Volume,VolMounts AS Mounts,VolErrors AS Errors, VolWrites AS Writes,VolStatus AS Status FROM Media WHERE (VolErrors0) OR (VolStatus='Error') OR (VolMounts50) OR (VolStatus='Disabled') OR (VolWrites399) ORDER BY VolStatus ASC, VolErrors,VolMounts,VolumeName DESC; # 19 :List all backups for a client with FileSet: *Enter Client Name: SELECT DISTINCT Job.JobId AS JobId,Client.Name AS Client, FileSet.FileSet AS FileSet,Level,StartTime,JobFiles, LPAD(ROUND(JobBytes/1024/1024,2),10,' ') AS MBytes,VolumeNAme FROM Client, Job,JobMedia,Media,FileSet WHERE Client.Name='%1' AND Client.ClientId=Job.ClientId AND JobStatus='T' AND Job.FileSetId=FileSet.FileSetId AND JobMedia.JobId=Job.JobId AND JobMedia.MediaId=Media.MediaId ORDER BY Job.StartTime; # 20 :List all Media SELECT VolumeName,MediaId,VolStatus,VolBytes/1024/1024 AS MBytes,VolFiles,Recycl e,Slot,InChanger,MediaType,LastWritten FROM Media ORDER BY VolumeName ASC; cut here just append the above to the file query.sql, if necessary (I don't know if its technically necessary, but I think it's not) modify the numbers in the comment lines, and try it using the sql command in the console.

See above does that help any? A little. Unfortunately, at this point, the information about StorageId and MediaType is more important - I'll let you work out how to use the query I just posted :-) At the moment, I can only assume that, for some reason and (partly) other than what you wrote earlier, the volumes with identical slot and inchanger=1 settings have different media types, or are assigned to different storage devices. I just looked into the source, and I guess the function that handles the media records in the catalogs after you called update slots works as expected: If the volume it works on has inChanger!=0 and Slot!=0 it sets any media InChanger flag to 0 where StorageId and Slot are identical to the ones of the current volume. This looks right and simple enough to me. So, in case your volumes actually have the same StorageIds and MediaTypes set (although the latter shouldn't matter...) I'd suggest the following: Reset the autochanger management information to 0 for all media, load one of the mags, update slots, unmount, load the other mag, update slots, and verify which information is in the catalog. If there still are (more or less) impossible values stored, file a bug report. Looks like that's all I can advise with the current information.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula asking for volume which isn't in the library...
Assuming it's not in your hands to remove that stupid disclaimer at the bottom of your email I'll answer this, despite my earlier rather snappy comment about that sort of nonsense. You might want to tell your mail admin that, to get support from me, it might be advisable to make a support contract with me, though - then, of course, I'll know I'm an intended recipient of your mail. And, once you're speaking to that admin, please ask her or him to add some line breaks to the disclaimer - it's hard to read when I have to scroll left and right. Anyway.

I suppose that you use different pools in your autochanger, and that the tapes in question belonged to different pools, and that the tapes requested are loaded in a slot that was occupied by volumes belonging to a different pool before. Too complicated? - Simply read the thread Maria started on Jan 15. Probably you'll know what I mean, and probably you'll find the solution to your problem. The short answer: Manually remove the information regarding autoloader inventory from the catalog (set InChanger and Slot to 0), load volmes from only one pool into the autochanger, 'update slots' and continue work. Make plans to upgrade to 1.38, or make a small patch to your Bacula source code and re-compile and -install the director. I don't know why it didn't just change the tape to 000148L2, which is purged and ready to be used. Instead it asked for one which wasn't in the changer. Can someone please help? Doing a restore shouldn't throw the backups out of whack. Quite true, and usually it doesn't, but I suppose you found one of the limitations of (up to) 1.36 versions...

[Bacula-users] how to successfully recover from bacula-server loss?
My home bacula server died hard the other day. No problem, everything is backed up. So I rebuilt the server with new hard disks, built a minimal bacula config (I can restore the old one from tape, right?) and bscanned the volumes back into the catalog. That seemed to go well. (jobid#, 193,924 files, etc) However, when I am trying now to restore the data it can't find it. Checking the jobs in the catalog appears to show only the catalog backups. This is fast becoming frustrating. How do I get the full catalog restored so that I can restore the data? Or better yet, just let me restore ALL of it into one of the hard disk subdirectories? Amanda at the least was in native dump format so I could manually restore it... maiasaura# bconsole -c /usr/local/etc/bconsole.conf Connecting to Director maiasaura:9101 1000 OK: maiasaura-dir Version: 1.36.3 (22 April 2005) Enter a period to cancel a command. *restore Using default Catalog name=MyCatalog DB=bacula To select the JobIds, you have the following choices: 1: List last 20 Jobs run 2: List Jobs where a given File is saved 3: Enter list of comma separated JobIds to select 4: Enter SQL list command 5: Select the most recent backup for a client 6: Select backup for a client before a specified time 7: Enter a list of files to restore 8: Enter a list of files to restore before a specified time 9: Cancel Select item: (1-9): 1 +---+--+-+--+--+--+ | JobId | Client | StartTime | JobLevel | JobFiles | JobBytes | +---+--+-+--+--+--+ | 40| maiasaura-fd | 2006-01-07 18:35:45 | F| 1| 9826143 | | 39| maiasaura-fd | 2006-01-07 18:34:06 | F| 1| 9825885 | | 38| maiasaura-fd | 2006-01-07 18:32:37 | F| 1| 9825628 | | 37| maiasaura-fd | 2006-01-07 18:31:18 | F| 1| 9825371 | | 36| maiasaura-fd | 2006-01-07 18:30:10 | F| 1| 9825114 | | 35| maiasaura-fd | 2006-01-07 18:29:10 | F| 1| 9824856 | | 34| maiasaura-fd | 2006-01-07 18:28:12 | F| 1| 9824921 | | 25| maiasaura-fd | 2005-12-24 03:11:07 | F| 1| 9826090 | | 18| maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-26 03:11:24 | F| 1| 9819238 | | 17| maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-25 03:11:03 | F| 1| 9818829 | | 16| maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-24 03:10:49 | F| 1| 9818420 | | 15| maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-23 13:17:46 | F| 1| 9818010 | | 14| maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-23 13:16:53 | F| 1| 9817901 | | 12| maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-19 03:11:56 | F| 1| 9816702 | | 11| maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-18 03:11:58 | F| 1| 9816438 | | 10| maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-17 03:12:03 | F| 1| 9816174 | | 9 | maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-16 03:10:55 | F| 1| 9816055 | | 8 | maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-15 03:10:45 | F| 1| 9815838 | | 7 | maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-14 11:09:33 | F| 1| 9815433 | | 5 | maiasaura-fd | 2005-11-12 03:11:12 | F| 1| 9814519 | +---+--+-+--+--+--+ -- Jo Rhett senior geek SVcolo : Silicon Valley Colocation --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Bacula-users] problems with update slots
3. Upgrade to 1.38.4 (or whatever is current...). That version supports multiple pools in one storage device. The upgrade is not exactly hazardous, but to ensure a smooth start I'd recommend that, after you upgrade the DIR, you issue a command like 'sqlquery update Media set InChanger=0, Slot=0; update slots' in bconsole to make sure you start with all the right catalog data. Note that an upgrade requires a catalog update too, and an upgrade of all clients and SDs in your installation. The quick solution for today, by the way, is to manually change the catalog data to correctly represent the loaded volumes. Start with setting InChanger and Slot for all volumesto 0, and then set the correct values for the volumes currently loaded. Do this with your database frontened, not through Baculas console. Don't use update slots afterwards. Hope this helps... and better make plans for an upgrading weekend.

Re: [Bacula-users] Extensions to query.sql (was: problems with update slots)

The other threads talk about not being able to do a restore from the catalog is the same thing. Anyway, I'm pretty sure this is a bug now. Why? It appears that you are dealing with a Win32 client. One important consideration here is that if you did not backup your Win32 machine with the portable = yes option, then bextract will not be able to extract the data. That said, bextract in version 1.39.4 *may* be able to extract the data because there is new code written by Thorsten that allows extraction of BackupRead data on to any machine.

If that's too much effort _for now_, you should read the manual sections which describe the tools you can use to recover the catalog without an available catalog... just the usual bootstrap problem. You need the volume(s) with the latest catalog backup, possibly the corresponding bootstrap file, and the programs bextract, bls and bscan. Usually, not all of of them, though. Finally, you reload your catalog database using the database maintenance tool of your choice. Arno Thanks in advance. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Bacula-users] Write Boostrap (Job Resource) question/confirmation
Greetings! Another question, just to assure that I'm thinking/doing correctly. The description of the Job Resource Write Bootstrap capability says that the file specified should be a mounted drive on another machine, so that if your hard disk is lost, you will immediately have a bootstrap record available. My immediate thought is it would be idea to have it on the USB external hard drives (the SimpleTech, backup done on Saturdays, or Western Digital, backup done on Tuesdays). If I were to lose a hard drive on my Linux system, I would be restoring from one or the other USB device. The backup itself would be there, so I would think that would be the ideal place to have this bootstrap file. I currently have 'Write Bootstrap = /var/bacula/working/Client1.bsr' in my two (main) Job Resources. So, would this be /media/simpletech/Client1.bsr (for the SimpleTech drive) and/or /media/wd/Client1.bsr (for the Western Digital drive)? And, I guess I could have barrycon for Client1, because that is my client name. Is this the correct idea? Thank you! Barry -- Barry L.

Please note, that you should write a bootstrap file for your catalog backup AND a bootstrap file (with a different name, of course) for your main backup. With the main backup bootstrap file, you can recover your whole system without first restoring your database (if your server goes down, you will need at least a dummy database to be able to start the restore job). Also, you probably should copy your server's bacula-dir.conf, bacula-sd.conf and bacula-fd.conf files to your USB drives. That makes it a bit easier to get back your configuration if necessary ... All these ideas an a lot more are in the Rescue chapter (and some in the Restore) chapter of the current online manual. -- Best regards, Kern ( /\ V_V --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

The bacula daemons always run multiple threads (for various purposes). The confusing thing is that threads and processes both have an id and some tools (including ps on some Linux kernels) don't know the difference between process ids and thread ids. With 2.4 Linux kernels (with a few exceptions), each thread had a separate pid. On 2.6 Linux kernels, all threads share the same pid but have different thread ids. If the above output is for a 2.6 kernel, then there is a problem, because there should be only one pid (though Bacula does create child processes which will have different pids, they should be short lived in normal conditions). __Martin --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Bacula-users] I/O Error on tape, maintainance of DLT1 drives
Hi! On 01/14/06 15:20, Julien Cigar wrote: I had exactly the same problem some months ago, full thread can be found here: http://www.nabble.com/Still-problems-with-my-Sony-tapes-t504270.html Thanks for the hint. But I don't think that this is the same problem. Your errors were DDS related, I'm using a DLT drive. Besides, the scsi-errors are pretty different and your problems seem to have been scsi-id related. I don't suspect this to be the problem in my case, as the server was shipped with this configuration and the tape drive has been working without any problem now for nearly a year. I believe my problem might have been caused by a drive firmware problem or something like that. After that error, the tape was totally unresponsive, when I tried to query it using mt status or tapeinfo, the following errors showed up in the syslog: scsi: reservation conflict: host 0 channel 1 id 6 lun 0 st0: Error 70018 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt 0x0, host bt 0x7). After a cold restart, the drive works again now. However the other issue is that apparently bacula has been informed about the error, but it seems to have interpreted it as an end of medium condition instead of aborting the backup: snipp! 14-Jan 01:57 samba-sd: Samba-Homes.2006-01-14_01.05.00 Error: block.c:538 Write error at 6:3819 on device DLT1 (/dev/nst0).

Is there an option to let bacula abort a backup after a write error? Cheers, --leo P.S.: I'd also still be interested in other users experiences with the durability of DLT tapes and some recommendations on drive cleaning and maintainance. Alexander Bergolth wrote: Hi!

In this case, the current job is still running and waiting for another tape. Is there an option to let bacula abort the job, if such an error occurs?

[Bacula-users] Re: LTO-3 vs. fixed block sizes
Rudolf Cejka wrote: Hello, maybe you can try different version of Linux, newer Bacula 1.38.x or/and cabling. I have Overland Neo 4200 with LTO-3 and FreeBSD 6.0 and did not experience any problem like yours - and I think there are others with LTO-3 without problems independently on FreeBSD or Linux. *nod* I've received reports from two other folks running bacula on Ultrium-TD3 drives with no issues. I don't think it's bacula-version related because both dd and tar also suffer the same blocking problem on the last read() system call. I've swapped out the SCSI cable with no effect. I'm going to put CentOS 4 on a spare server and test the library with it to see if this is CentOS 3 related. My gut keeps telling me there is something wrong with the drive, though, since these drives work for other folks. --[Lance] -- Lance A.
