Re: [Bacula-users] Restore more than one client
Mr. Goldim, Keep it simple. If you need to separate machines for access control, consider using ACL directives in the bacula-dir.conf file and create a catalog for each client. I'll leave it to you to read through the documentation on how to do this.

[Bacula-users] bacula-web install trick
I don't know if this is common knowledge or not, but this may help someone. In order to get bacula-web running on Fedora Core 4, and I assume on any system using PHP 5, do the following: Download and untar bacula-web from http://indpnday.com/bacula_stuff/bacula-web/mantisbt/main_page.php Let's say you put it in /var/www/html/bacula-web cd /var/www/html/bacula-web/external_packages mv phplot/ phplot.old now download the latest phplot from http://sourceforge.net/projects/phplot untar it into the bacula-web/external_packages directory being sure the directory is named phplot Make sure everything you just installed is readable by the httpd user. See your httpd.conf for the user and group. chmod -R apache.apache /var/www/html/bacula-web See the bacula-web documentation for help with other problems you might run into.

[Bacula-users] More on the IBM Ultrium 3851 L28
Hi, after some troubles I got this changer working. The most of the trouble was to figure that this model doesnt have a SCSI interface to the changer. So I had to write a custom mtx-changer script using netcat to have the tapes changed via the telnet interface of the device. The script is quite rough (I'm not a shell programmer, nor an expert), and tested just on a total of one (1) working environment. So I'm not sure if it will work for other people, but up to now is working nice for me. In any case you can find it for download here: https://svn.truelite.it/truedoc/attachment/wiki/BaculaBackup/mtx-changer?rev=&format=raw I hope it can be useful for someone else. I put it under the GPL, so you can freely use, modify and improve it. I cannot find a copyright notice on the standard I got from my system, so I put in it just my name, feel free to add the other authors to it.

Almost certain, given that the database server asked you to run a repair
on the tables. Assuming you're running MySQL, you can get directions on
how to do so at

Re: [Bacula-users] Too early End Of Medium
Thanks for your help Wolfgang but as it seems, the solution was much simpler. I did the tests with our "backup" tape-library and they worked fine. Ok, tape drive broken, I changed them and it works. I dunno why but I threw a cleaning tape into the new library just to clean the head before the weekend and thought about the old (replaced) library. The library has 6 slots, one of them holds a cleaning tape and the library is configured to clean itself whenever it needs it. Mh, doesn't seem to have worked. I cleaned the replaced tapedrive and *BINGO* works again. Right, time to check the automagic cleaning thingy ;) Greetings and a nice weekend to all of you.

[Bacula-users] RE: [Bacula-users] DDS-4 Tape Low Capacity
Check if you have a "Maximum Volume Bytes" directive in your DIR.conf file or a "Maximum Volume Size" directive in your SD.conf file limiting the amount of data written to tape. /Jens > Dear All, > > > > I hope someone can shed some light on this. > > > > I have a Seagate DDS-4 drive (Osprey I think).

Sending the customer a warning Email would be my other solution. And i think i will implement this instead of some quotas. Would be the best for all. So the customer have the control over it and it is up to him to take care of his space.

[Bacula-users] Pool problem (can't swim?)
Hi!
I've got a problem with Pools and backing up to a file resource...
The trouble is that although i tell it to backup using the NAS-Files pool, it
stubbornly inists to backup to the Default pool to which that SD has no
access. (The NAS is just a big HDD)
This is the STAT from the SD:
%<---
nas-sd Version: 1.38.5 (18 January 2006) i686-pc-linux-gnu debian
testing/unstable
Daemon started 16-Mar-06 11:25, 1 Job run since started.
Running Jobs:
Writing: Full Backup job job1 JobId=838 Volume=""
pool="Default" device=""FileStorageNAS" (/data/bacula)"
Files=0 Bytes=0 Bytes/sec=0
FDReadSeqNo=6 in_msg=6 out_msg=4 fd=6
Writing: Full Backup job job2 JobId=840 Volume=""
pool="Default" device=""FileStorageNAS" (/data/bacula)"
Files=0 Bytes=0 Bytes/sec=0
FDReadSeqNo=6 in_msg=6 out_msg=4 fd=8
(%<)
Jobs waiting to reserve a drive:
3608 JobId=888 wants Pool="NAS-Files" but have Pool="Default" on drive
"FileStorageNAS" (/data/bacula).
3607 JobId=888 wants Vol="Volume0002" drive has Vol="" on drive
"FileStorageNAS" (/data/bacula).
Device status:
Device "FileStorageNAS" (/data/bacula) is not open or does not exist.
Device is BLOCKED waiting for media.
%<---
Here is relevant stuff from my bacula-sd.conf on the NAS:
It is configured to automatically create a new volume for each job.
%<---
Storage { # definition of myself
Name = bigfilemachine-sd
SDPort = 9103 # Director's port
WorkingDirectory = "/var/bacula/working"
Pid Directory = "/var/run"
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
}
Device {

Archive Device = /path/bacula
LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = no;
}
%<---
Here's the directors config:
%<---
JobDefs {
Name = "DefaultNASJob"
Type = Backup
Level = Differential
Client = minime-fd
FileSet = "minime"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Storage = FileNAS

}

}
# Definition of file storage device

qualified name here
SDPort = 9103

Any help greatly appreciated!!
Many thanks,

[Bacula-users] DDS-4 Tape Low Capacity
Dear All, I hope someone can shed some light on this. I have a Seagate DDS-4 drive (Osprey I think). I have TDK catridges that claim to be 20/40GB (I guess the upper figure is with hardware data compression). However, in use with Bacula and also when used with “fill” on btape, I get a maximum of about 1,200,000,000 bytes written on each tape before it reckons the tape is full. I was expecting to get about 20 times as much data on a tape. Has anyone any ideas? Many thanks Catsmuvva (aka Nicole)

Running btape test

Got EOF on tape.

What the hell is that?
I'm pretty sure that everything worked perfectly.
Is there any new/old settings I'm missing?

[Bacula-users] Too early End Of Medium
Good morning.
Running Bacula 1.38.5 on Linux.
I just tried to bextract all files from a tape.
To process started, recovered some files, got to the end of the first block and
thought it was at the end of tape.
Mmmmh.
Ok, next try with 'bls' to list all tapes
17-Mar 09:15 bls: Got EOF at file 1 on device "TapeStorage" (/dev/nst0),
Volume "D01170"
17-Mar 09:15 bls: End of Volume at file 1 on device "TapeStorage" (/dev/nst0),
Volume "D01170"
17-Mar 09:15 bls: End of all volumes.
There are ~140GB saved on that tape, how do I make Bacula to go over the EOF
and read all data from the tape?
This is an IBM LTO1 drive 'ULT3580'.
Greetings,
Michael
