[Bacula-users] strange verify job and bootstrap permission problem
Hi, bacula 2.0.3 on Debian Etch, amd64, postgres 8.1 I'm encountering a strange permission problem and I can't really find what is going on or how to debug further. I use the local fd on the director for the verify jobs. But after each restart of the bacula daemons I get an permission error on the first verify job. If I use a remote fd for the job, everything is fine and _after_ that first job, I can use the local (dir) fd for verify jobs too. the running processes: bacula [..] /opt/bacula/sbin/bacula-sd -u bacula -g tape -v -c /opt/bacula/etc/bacula-sd.conf root[..] /opt/bacula/sbin/bacula-fd -u root -g bacula -v -c /opt/bacula/etc/bacula-fd.conf bacula [..] /opt/bacula/sbin/bacula-dir -u bacula -g bacula -v -c /opt/bacula/etc/bacula-dir.conf the permissions of the working directory: VU0EM005:/opt/bacula/var/bacula/working# ls -ld . drwxrwx--- 2 bacula bacula 4096 2007-08-09 09:03 .

As a matter of fact I DO worry, because me myself is annoyed of behaviour like
that :-)

Did you check all 3 daemons? To narrow it down, you could try restarting each daemon in turn and running a verify job to see if the problem occurs.

[Bacula-users] Normal speed?
Which will be the speed of a backup, having in mind that i have SATA disks and a tape that's could run to 8 Kb/s? Im having this speed: 17000KB/s from SATA to tape 35000KB/s from SATA(data) to SATA(data-stored by bacula) Is this normal? or im doing some wrong? - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Bacula-users] FW: Web configuration tool and autoconfiguration ofclients
I have been thinking of this and The Best Way(tm) of determining who is the director is by providing DNS service records maybe even via mDNS. Anyway it seems to me that instead of waiting around that some project admin get's hold of you could get a prototype working and then submit it for trial/approval/inclusion, whatever... cheers -Mensagem original- De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Em nome de massano jerome Enviada: segunda-feira, 30 de Julho de 2007 12:47 Para: bacula-devel; bacula-users Assunto: [Bacula-users] Web configuration tool and autoconfiguration ofclients Hello We have made a web tool to allow admins to configure bacula without having to edit a text file. For now, it is integrated in the server-manager panel of SME distribution, but we will make it stand-alone as soon as possible (and as soon as we will be ok with it - it is still in development). Now, what we would like to do to make the work of admins even easier is to make a tool on the client-side of bacula, which would do an automatic integration of the client. Here is the concept : The user chooses what directories and files he wants to be backed up, and what directories and files he does NOT want to be backed up (definition of the FileSet). Then, he chooses when he wants the backup to happen (definition of the schedule). Then, he asks the server (on which the director is installed) to give him a password, and to create a restricted console and to send him the password. Then, it would use our auto-configuration tool to add himself as a client with his schedule and fileset to the configuration of bacula, and to create an appropriate Job. The details still have to be discussed (how do we know who is the director : do we provide its address, or do we do a broadcast to discover the director present on the network ? - How do we ensure secrecy when we are being provided a password ?).

[Bacula-users] Concurrency not working properly?
Hi all,
my director (2.0.3) does not run two "independent" jobs
simultaneously.
I have set "Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10" in the Director{}
ressource, but this seems to have no effect.
The strange thing is that I only try to run two different jobs which
write to two different storages at the same time, which should be no
problem at all.
My setup is like that:
+--+ +--+
| Client-1 | | Client-2 |
+--+ +--+
| |
Job1Job2
| |
v v
+--+
| Director |
+--+
| |
Job1Job2
| |
v v
+---+ +-+
| TapeDrive | | DiskStorage |
+---+ +-+
The two jobs use the same Schedule{}
At 3:05 Job1 starts but Job2 only starts as soon as Job1 has
finished. So if Job1 is waiting for a new Tape all night long, Job2
is still waiting for execution in the morning...
What could be wrong with my setup?
Here is the relevant parts of the bacula-dir.conf file:
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycle"
Run = Level=Full SpoolData=no 1st sun at 03:05
Run = Level=Differential SpoolData=yes 2nd-5th sun at 03:05
Run = Level=Incremental SpoolData=yes mon-sat at 03:05
}
Director {# define myself
[...]
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
[...]
}
JobDefs {
Name = "DefaultBackupJob"
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
# Tape Storage:
Storage = lisa-sd
# Client1:
Client = lisa-fd
Messages = Standard
Pool = Default
Priority = 500
Spool Attributes = yes
# SpoolData = yes
# (will be set on Schedule basis)
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
}
Job {
# Job1
Name = "lisa-ImportantData"
JobDefs = "DefaultBackupJob"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
FileSet = "lisa ImportantData FileSet"
Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/Client_lisa.bsr"
}
Job {
# Job2
Name = "vesta-ImportantData"
JobDefs = "DefaultBackupJob"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycleNoSpooling"
Type = Backup
# Client2:
Client = vesta-fd
Level = Incremental
# DiskStorage:
Storage = vesta-sd
Messages = Standard
Pool = VestaFtp
Priority = 500
FileSet = "vesta ImportantData FileSet"
Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/Client_vesta.bsr"
Spool Data = no
Spool Attributes = no
RunScript {
Runs When = Before
Command = /usr/local/sbin/bacula-run_before_job.sh
}
RunScript {
Runs When = After
Command = /usr/local/sbin/bacula-run_after_job.sh
}
}

[Bacula-users] Bacula beta 2.1.30 released
Hello, I have just released the source tar and Win32 binary files for Bacula beta 2.1.30 to the Source Forge bacula-beta release area. As I mentioned in a previous email, other than a bit more documentation, I don't expect this code to change between now and this weekend when version 2.2.0 will be officially released. For packagers, you might want to take a good look at this release. Best regards, Kern - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

[Bacula-users] Incorrectly mounted tape.
Running FC5 with Bacula 1.38.5. I use two pools to hold DDS-4 and DDS-3 tapes respectively. All tapes have been labeled and registered in their respective pools. I use normally DDS-4 tapes for daily back-ups and the DDS-3 for special purposes like manually initiated back-ups of VMware vertual machines. I usually keep the current DDS-4 tape loaded and yesterday I had to reboot in order to work on the next Linux (and Bacula) version. When I booted back to FC5 Bacula started as expected and mounted the loaded DDS-4 tape. However, what I didn't see was that it assumed it belonged to the DDS-3 pool. The consequence was that the daily back-ups failed with error messages which ment absolutely nothing to me. It was not till I issued the "status storage" command that I saw the error. An "unmount DDS-3" and a subsequent "mount DDS-4" cleared the problem. I have several questions to this experience: 1. Was it a bug? 2. Could I have avoided it? 3. Is the way I use the two pools unreliable? 4. Why doesn't Bacula know which pool and storage a specific volume belong to? I hope someone can shed some light on this to me strange behaviour, -- Erik. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

I can't make up my mind. You're timing on this is darned near perfect. I'm driving down on Friday night from Minneapolis to Chicago (350 miles) for an annual rebuild project over the weekend.

[Bacula-users] Cannot relabel tapes with barcodes
Hi, I'm fiddling around with Bacula at the moment and encountered the following problem: I have an autochanger with a barcode reader and while playing with the features of the Bacula console i labeled the tapes "testtape". Then I discovered the "label barcode" command which does that automatically. When I execute the command I get the error "3920 Cannot label Volume because it is already labeled: "testtape"" twice; once for each tape that is currently inserted. The cleaning tape is recognized correctly. Now how can I relabel these tapes with their respective barcodes when "list" reveals only the cleaning tape and nothing else? greets Werner ___ NOCC, http://nocc.sourceforge.net - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Hmm, okay, but it shows UTF8. And shouldn't the bacula client be doing that? Because I'm going on vacation and don't want to leave home without a backup (especially since the laptop will be used in the field, literally), I ended up just removing the offending packages.

Hi, Thanks for the starting point as I'm using windows. Maximum Volume
Jobs does not work because I cannot guarantee the number of jobs on a
tape, when the schedule backup spans multiple tapes. Volume Use
Duration would not expire the tape fast enough after the last backup,
and if it expired before the backup is complete, then a new tape is used.

[Bacula-users] Relative priority?
Hello.
Let's say I have three jobs (each running on MySchedule):
_ backup a (priority=10);
_ backup b (priority=10);
_ backup catalog (priority=11).
Let's say I have three pools (1, 2 and 3).
Each month I'd like to take full backups of all three jobs on all three
pools, so I write:
Schedule {
Name = "MySchedule"
Run = Level=Full Pool=1 Storage=Tapes 1st sun at 0:05
Run = Level=Full Pool=2 Storage=Tapes 1st sun at 1:05
Run = Level=Full Pool=3 Storage=HD1st sun at 2:05
}
The problem is that the three backup catalogs are taken after all the
others. I need instead all backups on each pool to be made consecutively.
I wonder if I could write something like:
Schedule {
Name = "MySchedule"
Run = Level=Full Pool=1 Storage=Tapes Priority=-10 1st sun at 0:05
Run = Level=Full Pool=2 Storage=Tapes Priority=-6 1st sun at 1:05
Run = Level=Full Pool=3 Storage=HD1st sun at 2:05
}
Is it possible?
Any other way to achieve what I need?
bye & Thanks
av.

If I do a restart of the system with the correct tape loaded and then do a "status storage" I invariably get this message: Device status: Device "DDS-3" (/dev/nst0) is mounted with Volume="EPOL006" Pool="*unknown*" Total Bytes Read=0 Blocks Read=0 Bytes/block=0 Positioned at File=0 Block=0 Device "DDS-4" (/dev/nst0) is not open or does not exist. Device "FileBackup" (/downloads/bacula-backups) is not open or does not exist. In Use Volume status: EPOL006 on device "DDS-3" (/dev/nst0) Bacula has correctly read the volume as EPOL006 and clearly doesn't know which pool it belongs to and has made a fatal guess of the storage device. At back-up time it correctly opens DDS-4 which fails with busy indication because someone else (in casu Bacula) has occupied the tape streamer. Maybe I should report it to bugzilla? -- Erik. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop.

This status is normal till a job executes on the drive then the pool is figured out. I believe I see your problem. You have the same tape drive as two devices. This is very bad. Are there any special params needed to force the drive to use DDS3 mode versus DDS4 mode? John - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems?

[Bacula-users] migrating backups
Hi list, Just wondering if it is possible to migrate a pool on disk (file) to tape but still keep the files on disk for another 2 weeks. The situation is that we have a remote site that is poorly managing their tape rotations. So we want to centralise that but still have a local copy for any restores needed - using the tape as emergency. So the process would be: Weekly backup and incrementals are saved to disk and kept for 3 weeks. Each week a copy of the full backup is sent to remote bacula backup storage demon. After 3 weeks jobs are pruned from catalogue for disk but kept in catalogue for remote tape. I can see in the pool description there is a "cloned" pool type. How is this implemented and would this be the thing I'm after? Any help appreciated. Cheers, Bill _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
