Hello List, i do not understand the message: server-fd: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /home did bacula save this directory or not? It came only this message, the job it self is OK without warnings, so i think it doesn't matter.

Your request for help is a little lacking on content. You don't indicate what version of Bacula you have or how you are trying to restore or what the error messages are. Normally, Bacula does not permit making Incremental backups without a Full backup, so what you are saying doesn't make a lot of sense. There are always lots of different ways to restore when things start going wrong and the Restore chapter of the manual gives a pretty good overview. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

The problem is, Bacula recycles volumes not in changer and does not stick to the ones availabale. Yes. That's right. This has been discussed a number of times. I don't know how it should work, but I know what you can do to fix your problem :-) - Use 1.39.27 or whatever the current beta version is. - Make sure you actually want to run beta software in a production environment (but I'm quite sure that the features that existed in 1.38 have not stopped working). - Use the ned enabled/disabled flag for volumes and disable the volumes you remove from the changer. I probably found the solutions with stable 1.38.11 version. When we change the magazine we update volumes recycle flags. Put the recycle flag enabled for the volumes in changer and disabled for all others. And also mark status to Used on all appendable volumes not in changer. I will do a perl script for changing the magazine. It will first unmount the volumes and the ask to change the fysical magazine. After that it update slots and automatically update those recycle flags and status of appendable volumes not in changer to Used. And finally does mount. I think so the answer for this problem could be a configuration variable like AcceptAnyVolume. Something like AcceptOnlyInChangerVolume Or just change values on AcceptAnyVolume from yes|no to yes|no|inchanger... Yes, except that the AcceptAnyVolume directive does nothing anyway and has been removed from 1.39 :-) It should be trying to use suitable inchanger volumes first anyway, so the behaviour you see is either a bug or is caused by some other problem (e.g. it fails to recycle the volume for some reason). __Martin - Take Surveys.

[Bacula-users] Weird problems on Solaris 10
Hi I'm running bacula 1.38 with stunnel-4.16 or 4.14 between a Solaris 10 client and a Fedora 4 server. I guess the server is OK because it runs correctly with a number of other (non-Solaris) machines. The weird thing is that the backups from the Solaris machine start fine , begin to transfer data across the tunnel and then they stall mid-transfer. Once the transfer stalls no further data is ever transferred and the backup eventually errors. I've noticed that I can split backup jobs get all the files backup up in bits but when I combine the same files in one job I don't get a successful backup. Any suggestions?

[Bacula-users] ERR=Operation timed out
Hello everyone. Im trying to set up bacula to do the backup of the about 12 FreeBSD webservers we have. I got it working on all but 2 servers, on these servers i keep continuosly getting errors that the operation times out. The strange thing is that it seems to ALWAYS occur after almost the exact same time on both servers. That time is: 2 hours 10 mins 10 secs. The secs can vary between 10-14 but its definitely the same time. I'v read some other posts here about similar problems but nothing that exactly seems to match our issue. I have tried setting the heartbeat interval in the SD resource to 15 seconds as i saw mentioned in another post which didnt help. I tried setting it in the Client resource aswell as suggested in the Bacula manual. However this causes Bacula-dir to refuse to start saying there is a syntax error in the config file and pointing to this exact line in the client resource. Basically im lost and i really need to get this operational, is there anyone who has any ideas? I imagine it could be the network somehow timing out since its happening after the exact same elapsed time on both servers but i cant think of where to change this time out. Here is a cut from my log file with regards to this issue: 23-Nov 01:47 -dir: No prior Full backup Job record found. 23-Nov 01:47 -dir: No prior or suitable Full backup found.

Perfectly true, but ... Bacula *does* write something every 1GB (by default), and that is a JobMedia record. This is how Bacula finds and seeks to files quickly on tape. Unfortunately, the Bacula fseek() code for disk storage does not work in all cases. I've tried, and after a *lot* of time spent on this I have not found the problem so I give up as there seem to be many other important tasks to do. As I have explained before on this list, all you need to do is turn on FILE_SEEK in bacula/src/version.h, recompile Bacula and find where the bug is, then submit a patch. You will know the patch is good when you can run *all* the disk based regression scripts with FILE_SEEK turned on without any failures (the last time I tried, yesterday, there were four). What I haven't mentioned before is that as a reward, I offer the author of the patch not only a big thanks, but a dinner at any restaurant of his choice in Lausanne, Switzerland (or any city where I happen to be if/when we meet).

I am wondering if there is any reason why the current release of Bacula ( 1.38.11) can not work (or does not work) on Mac OS X Server (specifically Mac OS X Server 10.4.x)? In the Bacula 1.38.11 documentation, in the Quick Start section, the supported operating systems state Mac OS X (client) which would indicate logically not server (since Mac OS X Server is not mentioned). It would be great to be able to back up data on storage devices attached to and managed by some Xserves that I have to admin. Thanks much, Hydro - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Your request for help is a little lacking on content. You don't indicate what version of Bacula you have or how you are trying to restore or what the error messages are. Normally, Bacula does not permit making Incremental backups without a Full backup, so what you are saying doesn't make a lot of sense. There are always lots of different ways to restore when things start going wrong and the Restore chapter of the manual gives a pretty good overview. First of all thank you for your answer and i'm sorry about being a bit vague. It is not serious, but it can slow down getting to an answer ... I'm running SuSE 10.1 with bacula 1.38.11. Nice combination. :-) Basically, when i try to restore a backup of specific client, and when i choose the option to use the most recent backup of a client i get the message that there aren't full backups of the this client before the present date... but i see incremental jobs done in the past on the same client. I suspect that either you purged the Full backup or it was somehow pruned from the catalog. Bacula attempts to never prune the last Full backup, but something went wrong in your case. You should carefully examine your retention periods. You can rather easily get back any of the data in any/all the Incremental backups by selecting them by JobId in the restore command. If the Job record and Volume still exists for the Full, you can get *all* the files back by specifying the JobId for that job -- the restore command will complain that there are no File records and let you choose to restore all records. I may be wrong on this, if the feature was implemented in 1.39, but I *think* it is in your version. The text at the end of the Restore chapter of the manual explains how to do this manually -- assuming you have the job output and the tape/disk Volume is not overwritten.

[Bacula-users] Creating filesets on-the-fly
Hi, I'm new to bacula, and after reading the documentation I couldn't find a way of creating filesets from the consoles. It seems that the only way of creating them is by modifying the configuration file of the director, but this would involve restarting the bacula server to have the new fileset into account, right? Sometimes I need to schedule a backup of some new folder that wasn't backed up previously. Is there another way of doing this remotely from a console? Thanks in advance, Ruben - Take Surveys.

Re: [Bacula-users] Creating filesets on-the-fly
Hi, maybe this will help: Any file-list item preceded by a less-than sign () will be taken to be a file. This file will be read on the Director's machine at the time the Job starts, and the data will be assumed to be a list of directories or files, one per line, to be included. The names should start in column 1 and should not be quoted even if they contain spaces. This feature allows you to modify the external file and change what will be saved without stopping and restarting Bacula as would be necessary if using the @ modifier noted above. For example: Include { Options { signature = SHA1 } File = /home/files/local-filelist } If you precede the less-than sign () with a backslash as in \, the file-list will be read on the Client machine instead of on the Director's machine. Please note that if the filename is given within quotes, you will need to use two slashes. Include { Options { signature = SHA1 } File = \\/home/xxx/filelist-on-client } Regards Thomas Ruben Lopez schrieb: Hi, I'm new to bacula, and after reading the documentation I couldn't find a way of creating filesets from the consoles.
