[Bacula-users] Stupid file set question.
I have this in my bacula-dir.conf:
FileSet {
Name= "Full Win Set"
Include {
Options {
signature = MD5
Exclude = yes
IgnoreCase = yes
# Exclude Mozilla-based programs' file caches
WildDir = "[A-Z]:/Documents and Settings/*/Application
Data/*/Profiles/*/*/Cache"
WildDir = "[A-Z]:/Documents and Settings/*/Application
Data/*/Profiles/*/*/Cache.Trash"
WildDir = "[A-Z]:/Documents and Settings/*/Application
Data/*/Profiles/*/*/ImapMail"
# Exclude ISO Images
WildFile = "*.iso"
Will the IgnoreCase=yes allow the WildFile="*.iso" to exclude *.iso,
*.ISO, *.Iso, etc...
The reason I'm asking is that in the bacula docs, I saw where someone
had to use WildFile="*.[Ii][Ss][Oo]" to cover this.
Just not sure what's going on.
TIA.

I thought that may be the case. Bacula is a great system but every
solution I try with a disk-based backup fails for one reason or another
:( I'm sure it's perfect for tapes but I'm struggling to make it work
successfully with disks.
All I have is about 6 backup locations and I need to do a full monthly,
diff weekly and inc daily system. I have three USB drives - a 1TB unit
for fulls, a .5TB unit for diffs and a 250MB unit for incrementals.

Correct.
Volume files are never renamed in normal operation. Once they are
created, they keep their name (I never tried relabelin file volumes).
You should keep in mind that Bacula is also a tape backup program, and
the volume label is more or less equivalent of the tape name. Think of a

I checked the bug tracker page, which I just discovered. The bug was reported and fixed, so I will wait for a future release (bug 339). I will check the buglist next time, not just the user posts. A few follow-up questions: 1) I didn't follow your blacklist comment at the beginning. That referred not to a blacklist on my side or the lists, but rather to a problem my mail provider seems to have. They managed to get at least one of their outgoing mail servers onto a blacklist sf.net queries and so lots of my list mail was refused and I had to resend it and complain to my provider. Just to keep track of which message I tried to resend I addrd something to the top of it :-) Other than length, have I violated any etiquette? Not as far as I'm concerned. And, just to make this more clear, the length is in my opinion not a problem. It's merely an observation that shorter posts get more responses on many mailing lists, even if it takes quite a lengthy exchange to get all the facts you need to actually understand what is asked or reported. 2) Is there a repository of queries written by others? The best one I know is in query.sql - seriously, I don't think so. There is something in there that I contributed, I think, but I suppose that many others work similar to the way I do: Create an SQL hack, tweak it until it does what we want, and unfortunately, at that point, it's definitely not portable, elegant or even readable an more, so we keep this in our installation and don't share it. (Might be something for the wiki, I think). 3) Is there a pictorial view of the data-model, You might find something in the development manual, but personally, I never needed such an overview. Given the table names and the corresponding Bacula terminology, half the stuff I needed was already there, and the other half are the links between tables. These are usually an as far as I know not managed by database keys, but purely in the application logic. The naming helps a lot to understand these connections: For example the links to the Job table are done by a column called JobId which contains the calue of the primary key of the Job table, which is also called - you guessed it - JobId. Once I got that far I could work my way through the data model as far as necessary. or do you know of any good reverse engineering tools for mysql that will build me a nice graphical picture of the data model? Don't know nothing about such stuff, and I suppose it would need lots of user knowledge anyway, because all the links are managed in Bacula, not the database backend. I have a reasonable amount of experience in relational data modeling. Unfortunately, my experience is in a proprietary (albeit robust) relational database. Consequently, I am lukewarm on sql queries from a practical standpoint, and almost completely unfamiliar with any mysql tools that are out there. Any must-haves? I always use mysql, the simple command-line shell. As a graphical management tool I prefer MySQL Administrator, freely available from the MySQL web site. But I prefer doing "real" work in a terminal window or similar, so YMMV.

It is looking like mysqlnavigator is reasonablly effective for a db of the size of Bacula's. I had forgotten, but I ran across this tool when coming up to speed on mysql (for Bacula) and so installed the package. Hopefully, this will save me much query writing. As much as I would love to come up to speed on writing sql, right now I have more interest in getting my Bacula implimentation up and running. Once it is running, I suspect there will be some custom queries I will need for monitoring. I am really excited about Bacula. This is looking like the perfect solution-- highly professional features available for my modest network. When this implimentation is complete, I am going to be breathing easier.

Should I assume that I will "become one" with the product more quickly if I just accept this, and learn to write my own queries as needed? Well, if you want to get more fluent in SQL this could be just the right project :-) I am really hoping the answer is "no." But I can understand if it is "yes," as I certainly haven't been the one contributing to this monumental project :) (Although, if it is "yes" I will confess to being a little disappointed as I was hoping query writing would only come up in future fine-tuning of my implimentation). I'd even say that in many cases you don't need to write any SQL at all. If this is the case, then I am just wondering where I should start. I haven't really tried to delve into the source although I have taken a peek at "query.sql." What is not clear to me is where all the queries forming the 'list' commands are hiding. Do I need to get my hands on some source to get started on examples of useful queries? Should the task be to simply tack new queries onto query.sql as I need them? Yes and no. The SQL behind the commands like list is indeed hiding in the source code. You can, however, achieve what you want by using queries in query.sql, which I'd recommend. Parameter passing is done in a dialog there, but it's obviously much easier to try out queries - no need to recompile, install and restart the binaries, only saving the file and issueing the query command from bconsole. Or am

You might try converting the database, though... but see below for some things to consider. hmmm.. looks like i am in a pinch now... Yes, definitely. First, I wonder, because I did back up many pre-UTF-8 linux systems, but as these were mainly servers without user files it's possible that there never were any non-ASCII characters in filenames. Anyway, I never saw your problem myself. Second, changing the encoding is a difficult task - you've also got to think about A) NFS clients B) Samba clients (samba can handle different codings itself, though) C) File names contained in file contents, e.g. configuration files or links in html-files D) Terminal settings of your users E) charset-settings of web servers... I'm sure you could extend that list yourself :-) Anyway, I'd be very careful changing existing file names. On the other hand, I'd be very unhappy without a working Bacula, too.

Re: [Bacula-users] list job= and related broader question
Arno, Thank you for taking the time to review my long post, and for steering me on course. I checked the bug tracker page, which I just discovered. The bug was reported and fixed, so I will wait for a future release (bug 339). I will check the buglist next time, not just the user posts. A few follow-up questions: 1) I didn't follow your blacklist comment at the beginning. Other than length, have I violated any etiquette? 2) Is there a repository of queries written by others? 3) Is there a pictorial view of the data-model, or do you know of any good reverse engineering tools for mysql that will build me a nice graphical picture of the data model? I have a reasonable amount of experience in relational data modeling. Unfortunately, my experience is in a proprietary (albeit robust) relational database. Consequently, I am lukewarm on sql queries from a practical standpoint, and almost completely unfamiliar with any mysql tools that are out there. Any must-haves?

Hello, you wrote a very nice mail - only I think many list-readers will not bother to read that long text ;-) On 2/28/2006 11:39 PM, Christopher Mills wrote: I searched the archive for an answer to this question. I found it asked but never answered: The bconsole command 'list jobs' gives me a list of runs from all jobs. I want to narrow it to all job runs from a particular job. The bconsole doc under "list" seems to imply that would be done with: list job=My-Job This doesn't work (I am running mysql under Gentoo Linux). The same here. Either the manual is wrong or this is a bug, I say. I tried ... Alas, my suspicion is this query just doesn't function. By now, I suspect the same. Since I believe that this is a very fundemental query, and since out of the corner of my eye while searching the archives for an answer I seem to have noticed questions about formulating sql queries against the Bacula database tables, I have a broader question in regard to what I should expect in diving into Bacula: Should I expect that the Bacula development community is focusing on the more critical areas of this highly complex and powerful opensource project? That's what it looks like, and even though I understand the question behind what you wrote :-) I don't think this should remain unfixed. Should I bite the bullet, and bone up on my sql skills on the assumption that these relatively benign (but from a practical perspective of a Bacula implimentation, important) queries may not be fully debugged and tested as of yet? Should I assume that I will "become one" with the product more quickly if I just accept this, and learn to write my own queries as needed? Well, if you want to get more fluent in SQL this could be just the right project :-) I am really hoping the answer is "no." But I can understand if it is "yes," as I certainly haven't been the one contributing to this monumental project :) (Although, if it is "yes" I will confess to being a little disappointed as I was hoping query writing would only come up in future fine-tuning of my implimentation). I'd even say that in many cases you don't need to write any SQL at all. If this is the case, then I am just wondering where I should start. I haven't really tried to delve into the source although I have taken a peek at "query.sql." What is not clear to me is where all the queries forming the 'list' commands are hiding. Do I need to get my hands on some source to get started on examples of useful queries? Should the task be to simply tack new queries onto query.sql as I need them? Yes and no. The SQL behind the commands like list is indeed hiding in the source code. You can, however, achieve what you want by using queries in query.sql, which I'd recommend. Parameter passing is done in a dialog there, but it's obviously much easier to try out queries - no need to recompile, install and restart the binaries, only saving the file and issueing the query command from bconsole. Or am I getting paranoid, all documented queries work great, and I am just being clueless, having missed the obvious (which wouldn't be the first time)? :) Not this time, I'm afraid...

[Bacula-users] Incremental Pool and day-specific filenames
I'm trying to setup a backup system with Full on the first Sunday of
each month, Diff on subsequent Sundays and Incrementals daily. Backups
are written to external USB hard drives.
I'm following quite closely the example given at
http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Automated_Disk_Backup.html. The change
I'm making is that I need to backup multiple servers. I've amended the
pools and jobs as needed but I have one problem. The pool file is not
being renamed on the disk drive I'm using. Ie if I run an incremental
backup on Feb 24th the file created is Inc-2006-02-24. The next
incremental backup on the next day uses the same filename, not
Inc-2006-02-25 as expected, which is messing up the volume recycling.
Configuration snippets are below
Any pointers please?
JobDefs {
Name = "DefaultJob"
Type = Backup
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Storage = File
Messages = Standard
Pool = Default
Full Backup Pool = Full-Pool
Incremental Backup Pool = Inc-Pool

No, you'll have to upgrade all machines involved. Is there any easy way to upgrade a lot of client machines at the same time? None that I know of. The simple solution might be to prepare packages tailored to your needs and install them as you do in your organization. The windows package is, as far as I know, created using an open source installation program, so t shold be possible to adapt it to your needs (paths mainly, I think). The Windows package uses the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (http://nsis.sf.net) and I think I'm the original author of the install script. I initially integrated some 'silent-install' functionality into my version and unless that got removed when it went into the main project, it should still be there (at least with winbacula-1.38.4.exe I can still use it). Example: winbacula-1.38.4.exe /S /service It only works if you use the default path of c:\bacula though. See http://tcnnet.dyndns.org/winbacula/ for some documentation on the installer. You can also find the original script there (The newer versions are in CVS at http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/bacula/bacula/src/win32/ . Look for .nsi and .nsh files.) Creating .rpms or .debs for linux should also be possible, but that's nothing I know much about. What about the client name and password in the bacula-fd.conf as if I make a generic package I have to manually change it. Just don't overwrite it. I don't think there was a change there and the normal behaviour of the installer leaves bacula-fd.conf alone as well (if it detects presence of the .conf file, it writes out the default ones with extension .conf.new). If you search the ML archives, you should also find a script that I wrote that uses Samba-TNG and Windows' RPC Service to remotely stop the FD, push the upgrades and then restart the FD afterwards. I still use that method to maintain Bacula on the 6 machines that I have. I don't have any particular advice for Unix/Linux systems but those are easily scriptable anyway. Hope that helps.

Re: [Bacula-users] list job= and related broader question
Once more, again blacklisted... this gets interesting ;-) And once more because I sent this to the wrong list... resend, because my mail provider managed to get one of his mailers onto a blacklist... Hello, you wrote a very nice mail - only I think many list-readers will not bother to read that long text ;-) On 2/28/2006 11:39 PM, Christopher Mills wrote: I searched the archive for an answer to this question. I found it asked but never answered: The bconsole command 'list jobs' gives me a list of runs from all jobs. I want to narrow it to all job runs from a particular job. The bconsole doc under "list" seems to imply that would be done with: list job=My-Job This doesn't work (I am running mysql under Gentoo Linux). The same here. Either the manual is wrong or this is a bug, I say. I tried ... Alas, my suspicion is this query just doesn't function. By now, I suspect the same. Since I believe that this is a very fundemental query, and since out of the corner of my eye while searching the archives for an answer I seem to have noticed questions about formulating sql queries against the Bacula database tables, I have a broader question in regard to what I should expect in diving into Bacula: Should I expect that the Bacula development community is focusing on the more critical areas of this highly complex and powerful opensource project? That's what it looks like, and even though I understand the question behind what you wrote :-) I don't think this should remain unfixed. Should I bite the bullet, and bone up on my sql skills on the assumption that these relatively benign (but from a practical perspective of a Bacula implimentation, important) queries may not be fully debugged and tested as of yet? Should I assume that I will "become one" with the product more quickly if I just accept this, and learn to write my own queries as needed? Well, if you want to get more fluent in SQL this could be just the right project :-) I am really hoping the answer is "no." But I can understand if it is "yes," as I certainly haven't been the one contributing to this monumental project :) (Although, if it is "yes" I will confess to being a little disappointed as I was hoping query writing would only come up in future fine-tuning of my implimentation). I'd even say that in many cases you don't need to write any SQL at all. If this is the case, then I am just wondering where I should start. I haven't really tried to delve into the source although I have taken a peek at "query.sql." What is not clear to me is where all the queries forming the 'list' commands are hiding. Do I need to get my hands on some source to get started on examples of useful queries? Should the task be to simply tack new queries onto query.sql as I need them? Yes and no. The SQL behind the commands like list is indeed hiding in the source code. You can, however, achieve what you want by using queries in query.sql, which I'd recommend. Parameter passing is done in a dialog there, but it's obviously much easier to try out queries - no need to recompile, install and restart the binaries, only saving the file and issueing the query command from bconsole. Or am I getting paranoid, all documented queries work great, and I am just being clueless, having missed the obvious (which wouldn't be the first time)? :) Not this time, I'm afraid...

I tried to do it at the Library/Drive, but with no
success, so I worked my way to a solution with mt.
Hope it helps others, but no guarantee..
1. "umount Tape" in Bacula
2. load the old (DLT4000) tape in the drive
3. look at the status: # mt -f /dev/nst0 status (nst0
is my drive, my result is "Density code 0x83 (DLTtape
IV 4000 compressed (40GB))" or "Density code 0x1a
(DLTtape IV (81633 bpi))")
4. set the new density: # mt -f /dev/nst0 setdensity
0x89 ("0x89" for DLT8000)
5. rewind the tape: # mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind
6. write End of File: # mt -f /dev/nst0 weof
7. check status: # mt -f /dev/nst0 status (my result
is "Density code 0x89 (DLTtape IV 8000 compressed
(80GB))")
8. delete tape in Bacula
9. label tape in Bacula (same name as before is
possible)
10. don´t forget to update the volume information in
Bacula about the slot the tape came from, in case you
have a library, since Bacula lost that info when
deleting the old tape
Maybe some of these steps are obsolete, but it worked
that way for me.
Thanks for the tips that got me in the right
direction.
Bye,
Kai

A few weeks ago I mentioned another problem that this same character set mismatch caused for me (see "[Bacula-devel] A Pair of Postgres Issues", Jan 14). There I suggest the use of the --encoding option when creating the database tables as a work-around for the problems that I encountered. Given that the UTF-8 character set is a requirement for Bacula, it seems like it would be a good idea to force this by adding "--encoding utf-8" to the Postgres database creation script, and whatever the equivalent is to the scripts for the other databases. -- John Kodis. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

Apparently I can open and use bacula database from the command line and
bacula can't. I don't see any "no permission" messages so I believe the
necessary permissions are in place. Could it be that a special link
between bacula and mysql has not been set up and thus is missing?
I am a total loss on this problem and don't know what to do other than a
total reinstall of both bacula and mysql. Insidentally, both bacula-fd
and bacula-sd start up without problems it is "only" bacula-dir which
causes problems.

Actually, I should be a bit more specific: the variable substitution used in LabelFormat is depreciated, which means that in a year or two it will be removed. If you are using a LabelFormat such as "Month-", which will automatically generate the above, that code will remain as it is quite simple, easy to understand, and easy to maintain. Best regards, Kern PS: Programming Python is easy. If you take the default DirStartUp.py script, delete a few example print/JobReport statements and change: job.VolumeName="TestA-%d" % numvol to job.VolumeName="Month-%d" % numvol you will most likely have what you do now. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.

This may well be your problem. I'm not an expert in Linux character sets, but Bacula uses utf-8, which is the default on Linux. It looks like you have turned off utf-8, which will create a database that is incompatible with the Win32 consoles, which expect all Bacula database information to be in utf-8 format (Unicode). my /etc/sysconf/i18n looks like the following: LANG="en_US.UTF-8" SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en" I imagine (but don't really know) that you should not have the CHARSET, and that you should have a .UTF-8 on the end of your LANG definition. I've never seen the @euro, so I'm not sure where that really fits in ... Perhaps a couple of German users could provide the output of their /etc/sysconfig/i18n files -- especially those who have had success using the Win32 version of wx-console with German accents.

Until 1.38.5 it was Scott, but for 1.38.5 Scott didn't have the appropriate Micro$oft license so I built the Win32 Bacula. In the future, it will be Scott as we have corrected the license problem thanks to Bacula contributions.
