Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] bacula-mysql-1.38.11-3.fc5.i386.rpm mysql-5.0.18
Well, any time you upgrade a database, whether or not it is MySQL, SQLite, or PostgreSQL, there is a good probability that Bacula needs to be recompiled. My experience is that this is rare for MySQL as long as the first two versions do not change. For PostgreSQL, the general rule is that one must always recompile, and worse, for PostgreSQL, you can easily corrupt your database if you don't back it up and reload it after the upgrade. If I am not mistaken, this is stated in the manual. I didn't look at the issue of rpm requires. It seems to me that to be safe, that the rpm should alway require exactly the same version it was built with. This may be a bit overkill, but it is the safest. The best advice I have is that if you are running a production system with Bacula or any other program that uses an SQL engine, do not upgrade your SQL engine without upgrading all the other software that uses it. Concerning Fedora. I used that distribution. I dropped it because there were just too many problems. I don't regret for a second having dropped it because I have had *far* fewer problems. My personal problems were with FC4 and then worse ones with FC5. In the articles I've read since then FC6 is rated even worse. I feel sorry for any Fedora user unless he really enjoys being on the bloody edge. Scott, if you would like to build and release new rpms, OK, but I think we should be careful about letting the Fedora cowboys jerk us around. I don't know how to go about documenting this as this particular incident doesn't seem to be something for the manual, and all the other ways of providing documentation don't seem to reach many of the users. If you have specific suggestions, I'm listening. I would recommend that you send an email to the bacula-users and bacula-devel lists describing the problem. My proposed solutions would be:. the user reverts to the previous version of MySQL.

I think that it is mainly about policy, which do you want to use. I used Amanda in the past too, but I was very disappointed with it. There were two main problems: Inability to split one backup over more tapes (I hope that it is solved in Amanda now, but after very very long time since it has been planned and implementation has been started) and inability to restore small number of files from a big backup jobs in acceptable time (it was really absolutely unusable to read full backup job for restore of just one file). I used the staging in Amanda too, but since I switched to Bacula (with mid-step over afbackup), I do not want it anymore. > > As LTO3 has a really, really high throughput > > (80MB/s, if I recall) I don't see much chance in using both drives in > > parallel. Why? I did some testing on my configuration (currently Oveerland 4200 with two LTO3 drives) with dd-ing of uncompressable datas to both drives and the speeds to both tapes were the same about 72 MB/s, as in case of just one tape drive. System load was about 15 %, which was mainly generated by a process producing datas at so high rate. Parallel reading to /dev/null was even happier, where both speeds were about 75 MB/s. ... I think that the native speed of LTO3 is 80 000 000 B/s, so in my counts I expect that native speed of LTO3 drive is 76 MB/s.

You can push the limit by using the right I'm afraid that main problem is in Bacula computing CRC32 between reads from disk and writes to tape. I believe that LTO3 drives have something like Digital Speed Matching, which means that they measure delays between write requests to the tape multiplied with data block sizes and from this result it tries to commit the incoming datas in somewhat slower rate, so that there is guaranteed rate of an incoming stream - initiator side has to always wait. Minimally, but wait, because in other case there would be stream gaps, which is for tapes always a problem. If I have one drive connected over 320 MB/s SCSI bus and the second drive connected over 160 MB/s SCSI bus, dd-ing rate, where read-write loop is very tight, is totally the same for both drives around 75 MB/s. When they are accessed from Bacula, write speed to one drive is around 75 MB/s, but write speed to the second drive is 65 MB/s. > hardware, but it will be hard to find a (more or less) normal server > that can handle moving data from the network to LTO-3 and from another > LTO-3 drive to the network simultaneously.

Main problem seems to be in RAID system, which has to be used for spooling area. A critical measurement is how fast it can give read data stream, when there are several write streams at particular data rate. For example, if I have income rate around 20 MB/s, I still can read at rate 75 MB/s. But when there is an income around 40 MB/s, read rate slows down to 40 MB/s too, which is good minimal rate for LTO3 drive, but it should not go below it.. -- Rudolf Cejka http://www.fit.vutbr.cz/~cejkar Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Information Technology Bozetechova 2, 612 66 Brno, Czech Republic - Take Surveys.

Well, the ability to split over multiple tapes seems to be resolved now that Zmanda has entered the picture, but then they injected $5 million. Getting back to files quickly on tape would seem to me to be one of their fundamental limitations as long as they use system tools such as tar, which to the best of my knowledge don't keep sufficient info to be able to seek to particular files. > > I used the staging in Amanda too, but since I switched to Bacula (with > mid-step over afbackup), I do not want it anymore.

Interesting, but not too surprising since LTO-3 is really fast and maybe CPUs are not quite up to it yet. With technology like LTO-3, perhaps it is time to consider giving the user the ability to turn off the CRC32 generation and comparison.

[Bacula-users] Restorejob bigger than space on originalserver (no delete record) - possible workaround but...
Hello, We are creating here a filelist.txt before backupjobs start and put it on the incremental backups. So if a server crash and we have to restore it from scratch with incremental backups included, we don´t risk that the server runs full while it would be restored if some users moved or deleted big directories. In a worse case it could took hours to restore while the users "jump around" and your restorejob cancel just because the harddisk get full when one big folder was renamed or (re)moved in the past from your users and you can start again. And even in this bad situation you maybe don´t know which folder(name)s are the latest one so you must hope that your users can tell you (because the folders are heavy used by them and you just backup them). So in theory when creating a filelist we have just to restore the filelist.txt from the last incremental set and make the full restore based on this filelist with option "7: Enter a list of files to restore" and enter "1 and "useless long" with many entries >10 here. Does anybody have an idea how to workaround another way or to speed this up great? Greetings, User100 - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Well, I guess the moral is that we should try to build the rpms on the base system, but this is not always practical especially on fast moving (and buggy) distro releases.

Afbackup didn't do that and there was not any indication over the long time (about two years I think), that there is any active development, which was the same problem as with Amanda. As in Amanda case, Afbackup does not have real database for stored files too, there are just listings in text files, and file positions were very inaccurate (up to several tape files before the real position), which was frustrating during restore process - will it be found, or not? Another problem I remember was with spooling, which I take for high end tapes as a must - afbackup had just mmap(), which is limited to 2 GB on FreeBSD and it is memory/swap backed and I could not imagine any scenario, that I can constantly feed LTO3 drive for a sufficient time using this small spool space. The inherent problem was with parallel backups, where files from various jobs are interleaved. It is good for backup time, but a killer for restore time, I tried it just once and please no more :o) >From a long time view, I take as a big advance of Bacula, that there is some view from above and there is visible software architecture, so that I see big potential in further development of Bacula.

Areika is a new tool for me - I did not know about this software up to now, so I'm interested about it too. I seen just German pages. > Interesting, but not too surprising since LTO-3 is really fast and maybe CPUs > are not quite up to it yet. It seems to me that the problem is with even very small delays (excessive locking can be probably a problem too), where tape drive expects data write requests as fast as possible after ack from previous writes, not counting that their speed would accomodate just limited data rate. In the case, where there are any delays, it seems to me that tape artifically slows down incoming data stream just for prevention, so that initiator can with the same delay write another data block. However it is not commited by any official source, it is just based on my experience and my reasoning. > With technology like LTO-3, perhaps it is time > to consider giving the user the ability to turn > off the CRC32 generation and comparison. It would be very good thing. I tried to patch Bacula personally, but then I was afraid to use it in my real environment, until it is tested and until I'm sure I can restore the data too :o) The patches were not finished and maybe they are lost. I decided that I'm not sufficiently ready to do such a low level thing. I have read about LTO3, that "the tapes contain a strong error correction algorithm that makes data recovery possible when lost data is within one track or up to 32 mm of the tape medium." Another interesting thing is that LTO3 tape drive uses flying tape over the heads (like in hard drives) as much as possible, so cleaning tapes are almost not used in effect. HP says that the drive can run up to 6 000 hours without cleaning tape use (where just small internal brush is sufficient), which was big surprise for me. Unfortunatelly I have got this information after I have bought 5 cleaning tapes :o) Imagine, that one cleaning tape may be exhausted even up to after 90 000 hours = 3750 days >= 10 years... :o) -- Rudolf Cejka http://www.fit.vutbr.cz/~cejkar Brno University of Technology, Faculty of Information Technology Bozetechova 2, 612 66 Brno, Czech Republic - Take Surveys.

[Bacula-users] Spooling/unspooling tweaks?
Kern, Is there enough flexibility on the code to assign greater or lesser priority to spooling/despooling processes? With current readily available tape technology (LTO2) running at speads equal to most disk drives and newer technology (LTO3) running significantly faster than this, there is probably some advantage in allowing despooling processes to take higher priority over spooling ones (especially given there may be 5-10 processes spooling to disk simultaneously at times) The only way I'm able to keep up with the tape drive and spool to disk simultaneously at the moment is to run a 4-disk stripe set in order to increase the spool area throughput speed (next step would be a dedicated external SATA array) Even then, sometimes the tape starts shoeshining - Take Surveys.

[Bacula-users] Error when labeling a tape
hello, I'm using Bacula since several days with a DLT tape reader. I tryed to add a DDS-3 tape reader located on a remote machine (not on the one where the director is installed) but got some strange problems. When typing status on console, bacula reports the tape is ok. when typing label, I got the following message: "3903 Error scanning label command" I also started the sd in interactive mode with -d100 and I notice a message telling the device (/dev/nst0) is opened in read only mode. Does anyone have an idea on this problem ? Thank you very much for your support.

[Bacula-users] Bacula Debian repackaging
Hello, I need a more recent Bacula Debian package( autoloader automatic volume change bug fix). I haven't found one more recent than (1.38.11). I tried to repackage it with version 1.39.26. I have a problem with the debian package builder. When building the sqlite variant, libssl isn't linked with it (-> unresolved symbols). Using the standalone build it works Does someone have any hint to solve this problem ? - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Bacula-users] concurrent jobs don't spool at the same time
Hi all,
I am having trouble with concurrent jobs not spooling in parallel -- they
spool and despool, one at a time, in sequential order. I only get one job
running at a time. I want daily backups that write one volume to disk,
per job, with concurrent jobs that spool in parallel. Can someone please
help me figure out what I'm doing wrong? My setup follows.
Thank you,

[Bacula-users] Problem with tape filling up
Im running into a problem when the tape fills up with Bacula
1.38.11. Im running Redhat ES v4. I have been running bacula for
about 4 months now with almost no problems until my full backups
started overrunning the tape. I use the same Job for Incrementals
and I dont see the problem with those, only on Full backups.
The problem is when the tape fills up it doesnt wait on me to label
and mount a new tape. The job gets cancelled within 2 mins. When I
do an incremental it waits for the specified amount of time and
allows me to insert a new tape, but not on full backups.
Here is the output of the log:

Re: [Bacula-users] Backups hung waiting on storage
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Well, I've figured out what's happening here, but not why or how to
correct it elegantly.
My problem is I have made a change (as seen below) to keep the tape
drive open. I don't have operators -- at least temporarily -- that can
be bothered with/given access to the console. My solution for this is
one unmount on Monday morning. This should allow the operator to remove
the tape sometime on Monday and insert the new tape before Monday night.
However, apparently "AutomaticMount" does not apply to situations where
a "user" (or crontab) has unmounted the tape drive? As a result, the
night's backups are BLOCKED as a result of user unmount.
What is the solution here? A separate script to mount the drive in the
evening before the backups? Isn't there any way to unmount a tape on
demand but not in such a fashion that an AutomaticMount cannot overcome it?
The next problem -- and this one I think is easily solvable with some
config changes -- is when things get into this state, there is no
continuing with the backups. I run a mount and the process hangs. I
think this is because there is no spare channel to the SD. At around the
same time, this happened, which IMO further supports that idea:
04-Dec 23:11 helios-dir: Max configured use duration exceeded. Marking
Volume "combined_BW2" as Used.
04-Dec 23:12 helios-dir: Pruned 6 Jobs on Volume "combined_BW3" from
catalog.
04-Dec 23:12 helios-dir: Error: bnet.c:426 Write error sending 77 bytes
to client:130.219.34.102:9101: ERR=Broken pipe
my understanding is the director wanted to tell the SD about the
changes to the jobs, but was unable since the SD was busy. Is there some
way that I can allow a second communication channel to the SD, if this
is indeed the problem, without allowing for other weird things to happen
(like intermingling backups or anything like that -- essentially I
don't want any other things to be able to happen at the same time aside
from control commands).

Currently Bacula never fiddles with priorities, if for no other reason that it is very system dependent, and I try as best possible to avoid system dependent code. I haven't researched the problem, but it seems to me the first thing to do would be to see if it is possible to give different threads different priorities.

I have always planned to do so, but it has never gotten even close to the top of my priorities. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Currently Debian's release team is about to prepare the next stable release of Debian codename "Etch". New upstream releases are currently not entering Debian unless there is an important reason. That's probably why John Goerzen isn't making newer packages available yet. You may want to file a wishlist bug report using the "reportbug" tool or on http://bugs.debian.org though to remind him that there is already a new upstream release.

[Bacula-users] bacula-rescue problem : static-bacula-fd Segmentation fault when authenticating
Hi,all
when I'm working on get bacula-rescue run in my redhat 8.0. when i compile
bacula-1.36.3 source with configurat
ion in the documentation at
http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Disast_Recove_Using_Bacula.html#SECTION0004140
00, i get a bootcd.iso ,after that i boot from the iso and it works
well until i start the static-bacul
a-fd. when i try to connect the fd from bconsole using status client=XXX
command, the static-bacula-fd encounte
r a segmentation violation and quit .i trace the problem and find that the
problem sequece is :
authenticate(filed/authenticate.c) -> sscanf(filed/authenticate.c) ->
bsscanf(lib/scan.c) -> isspace(/user/include/ctype.h)
this is my operations :
1) make bacula-source with
./configure \
--prefix=/usr/bacula \
--sbindir=/usr/bacula/bin \
--sysconfdir=/usr/bacula/bin \
--with-scriptdir=/usr/bacula/bin \
--enable-smartalloc \
--enable-client-only \
--enable-static-fd
2) make and make install
3) use bacula-rescue
./configure \
--with-static-fd=/usr/bacula/bin
make all
4) get the bootcd.iso , boot a new created vmware virtual machine of same
configuration with the former
5) startnetwork and mountdrivers
6) start static-bacula-fd with ./static-bacula-fd -d3000 -f -c bacula-fd.conf
7) connect the fd using ./bconsole -> status client=localhost-fd
then static-bacula-fd quit with :
localhost-fd: signal.c:78 sig=11 Segmentation violation
localhost-fd: message.c:573 Entering dispatch_msg type=3 msg=localhost-fd:
Fatal Er
ror because: Bacula interrupted by signal 11: Segmentation violation
I write a program testing isspace function in the iso booted machine and it
works.but when
I write it at bacula source code it encounter a Segmentation fault . here is my
test
if(!isspace(' ')) {
exit(0);
}
Who can help me solve the problem ? i will appreciate your help;-)

I run into similar problems when running backup (compressed) of a filesystem containing many already compressed files. chris - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

A segfault would not be the lack of a library; that would tend more toward a compilation failure. The runtime segfault may indicate a library incompatibility of some sort. I think there was a glibc change between RH8 and RH9, and there certainly has been on between RH8 and current releases. Unless someone else has some specific insight your best bet may be to debug with strace (or gdb?) to see just where the fault is.

AFAICS there is no such wish filed yet. 1.39 is beta code, Debian doesn't take 'unstable/cvs/svn' branches of software. There are some exceptions of course but in general, only stable releases of software should be packaged. Once 1.39 stabilizes and is released (as 1.40), the Debian packages will probably follow. That said, 1.39 could probably go to experimental (I'm not aware of the policies there).
