Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula Label Error - Newbie
Thanks to all for the advice. Fixed the volume labeling problem with "add", but yes, crossing my fingers didn't work. I tried a test job and now I'm getting: 09-Oct 01:52 janus-sd: Failed command: use storage=janus-sd media_type=File pool_name=DiskVolume pool_type=Backup append=1 copy=0 stripe=0 09-Oct 01:52 janus-sd: Web1-Nightly.2007-10-09_01.50.52 Fatal error: Bad Use Device command: use storage=janus-sd media_type=File pool_name=DiskVolume pool_type=Backup append=1 copy=0 stripe=0 09-Oct 01:50 STOR1-dir: Web1-Nightly.2007-10-09_01.50.52 Fatal error: Storage daemon didn't accept Device "HDD" because: 3913 Bad use command: use storage=janus-sd media_type=File pool_name=DiskVolume pool_type=Backup append=1 copy=0 stripe=0 I'll attempt to compile 2.2.4 from source. The problem with the RPM, as I remember, was my outdated versions of GCC, glibc, etc. on this old machine - I'm only using it for NFS staging of backups. We'll see what these changes break... maybe it'll be time to upgrade the OS :) Arno - yup, that's me! Unfortunately my residential fiber line blocks port 80, so jasonantman.com redirects to DynDNS which uses an unused high-numbered port. Feel free to email me directly for whatever advice I can offer. I haven't tried HPASM on 10.3 yet, mainly because support for the older HP SCSI controllers was dropped in 10.1 (they're supposed to be fixing this), but hopefully I can help or direct you to someone who can. -Jason - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Bacula-users] label on tape lost
Hello everybody, for some reason - maybe I did something that caused it, but I don't remember - one of my tapes has no label any more. Hence during restore bacula does not recognize the tape: 07-Okt 23:59 server: RestoreFiles.2007-10-07_23.57.27 Error: block.c:263 Volume data error at 0:0! Wanted ID: "BB02", got "". Buffer discarded. 07-Okt 23:59 server: RestoreFiles.2007-10-07_23.57.27 Warning: acquire.c:146 Requested Volume "L20002" on "LTO-2-Laufwerk" (/dev/nst0) is not a Bacula labeled Volume, because: ERR=block.c:263 Volume data error at 0:0! Wanted ID: "BB02", got "". Buffer discarded. We discussed a similar problem in [1] but the last idea (relabeling option in btape) was not commented any more. How can I write a label to the tape without an EOF after the label? I know the length of the label (see above), so following data would not be destroyed, I think. How can I make a dump of the tape to disk, so that I have more than one try on this? I tried dd, but this needs a block device as source.

[Bacula-users] What tape will be used next?
Hi I'm just coming to terms with Bacula and I'm quite impressed. But here is something I can't get my head around: I've got a setup modeled after the example in the docs under Backup Strategies/Daily Tape Rotation. So I have: -A pool for each day from Mon-Thu with one tape (Recycle=yes, AutoPrune=yes, Volume Retention=6d) -One weekly pool with four tapes (Volume Retention=24d) So finding the correct tape for the Mon-Thu pools is not a problem. But to know which tape out of the four Bacula needs for Friday night is. I've seen the trick in the FAQs of running a small pseudo-job during the day. But I think it would be cleaner to have a small cron job which queries the database for the tape and then sends a mail to the operator. Is there any way to accomplish this? From what I can see in the docs and in my tests the problem is the tape will be recycled when Bacula needs a new one. In the middle of the night. Is there a way to query for the next available tape from a pool? Any hints and tips are greatly appreciated. Cheers, Goetz - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Bacula-users] Understanding media-type
Hi, I was going to post similar question when I saw this thread so I'd rather join... I just got my new AIT-5 drive delivered, together with a bunch of AIT-5 tapes. I have an autochanger with single AIT-3 drive installed and 4 vacant drive slots, so I am planning on installing AIT-5 alongside with AIT-3. What is the safe way to ensure old AIT-3 drive never tries to load AIT-5 tape? Would it be enough to configure a separate pool for new tapes? I would appreciate if anyone with a similar configuration (i.e. different drives in the same changer operated from a single SD) could share examples of working config files.

and the client. I have 10 clients now, they are all over the same network
setup in the same way, and this is the only one that just won't work.
This client was working with bacula-2.2.0, but I just upgraded to
bacula-2.2.4 and it hasn't worked since. I tried to revert back to 2.2.0
and that didn't solve the issue either.
I am able to connect from the client to the bconsole on the server.
Here is an attempt to connect from the server to the client via telnet
over port 9102:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# telnet 192.168.1.162 9102

[Bacula-users] Storage director segfaults, bacula 2.2.4 useless
I haven't seen any response to the query that I posted last week.

[Bacula-users] Catalog database ran out of room--OK?
My last backup job failed because the catalog database ran of room on the disk. I see the section of the manual about database maintenance, but I have a concern and a question. The concern is that my catalog is now messed up, not just for that particular job but in general. What state is it in? Will it be OK, at least if the database (postgres) utilities say the database is OK? My reading of the logs is that the actual backup (to disk--a different one from the catalog) is OK. Is it? If so, could I restore the catalog entries by using one of the restore utilities and the backup? Here's part of the job log from bacula: 08-Oct 07:32 corn-sd: Job write elapsed time = 07:08:23, Transfer rate = 168.8 K bytes/second 08-Oct 07:32 corn-fd: ClientAfterJob: run command "super cyrus-resume" 08-Oct 07:32 corn-fd: ClientAfterJob: Starting Cyrus IMAPd: cyrmaster. 08-Oct 07:37 corn-dir: Cyrus.2007-10-08_00.05.02 Fatal error: Can't fill File table Query failed: INSERT INTO File (FileIndex, JobId, PathId, FilenameId, LStat, MD5) SELECT batch.FileIndex, batch.JobId, Path.PathId,Filename.FilenameId,batch.LStat, batch.MD5 FROM batch JOIN Path ON (batch.Path = Path.Path) JOIN Filename ON (batch.Name = Filename.Name) : ERR= Note that it got to the run after job, and that the failure is reported 5 minutes (!) after everything else seemed to finish.

Hi Vik,
The answer to both questions is yes (I think) :-)
Here is the relevant section from bacula-dir.conf:
Client {
Name = thecus_camera
Address = pluto
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = "xxx" # password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 6 months
Job Retention = 6 months
AutoPrune = yes
}
Storage {

Address = pluto.waldo.home
SDPort = 9103
Password = "xxx"
Device = ThecusCameraStorage
Media Type = File
}
Pool {
Name = ThecusCameraFullPool
Pool Type = Backup
#Storage = PlutoFile
Recycle = yes
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Volume Retention = 6 months
Accept Any Volume = yes
Label Format = "ThecusCameraFull-"
}
Pool {
Name = ThecusCameraDiffPool
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
Volume Retention = 1 month
Accept Any Volume = yes
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Label Format = "ThecusCameraDiff-"
Maximum Volumes = 7
}
Pool {
Name = ThecusCameraIncPool
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
Volume Retention = 1 week
Accept Any Volume = yes
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Label Format = "ThecusCameraInc-"
Maximum Volumes = 7
}
# List of files to be backed up
FileSet {
Name = "ThecusCameraFileSet"
Include {
File = "/mounts/for_backup/camera"
Options {
Compression=GZIP2
signature = SHA1
verify = pins1
}
}
Exclude {
File = /proc
File = /tmp
File = /.journal
File = /.fsck
}
}
JobDefs {
Name = "ThecusCameraTemplate"
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
Write Bootstrap =
"/var/backups/client_backups/thecus/camera/thecus_camera.bsr"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Messages = Standard
FileSet="ThecusCameraFileSet"
Pool = "Default"
Full Backup Pool = ThecusCameraFullPool
Incremental Backup Pool = ThecusCameraIncPool
Differential Backup Pool = ThecusCameraDiffPool
Run Before Job = "/bin/mount /mounts/for_backup/camera"
Run After Job = "/bin/umount /mounts/for_backup/camera"
Run After Failed Job = "/bin/umount /mounts/for_backup/camera"
Priority = 10
Spool Data = no
Client = thecus_camera
Storage = ThecusCameraFile
}
Job {
Name = "ThecusCamera"
JobDefs = "ThecusCameraTemplate"
Type = Backup
}
Job {
Name = "ThecusCameraRestoreFiles"
#JobDefs = "RestoreFilesTemplate"
Storage = "ThecusCameraFile"
Type = Restore
Client=pluto
FileSet="Full Set"
Pool = Default
Messages = Standard
Where = /tmp/bacula-restores
}
Job {
Name = "ThecusCameraVerify"
JobDefs = "ThecusCameraTemplate"
Type = Verify
Level = DiskToCatalog
}
*End of bacula-dir.conf***
And here is the relevant section of bacula-sd.conf:
Device {
Name = ThecusCameraStorage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = "/var/backups/client_backups/thecus/camera"
LabelMedia = yes;
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes;
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = no;
}
*End of bacula-sd.conf***
The backup works just fine, so I'm not sure why the restore does not,
using the same Storage parameter. Thanks for your help!
Paul

Re: [Bacula-users] Storage Resource for Restore Job cannot be specified?
Hi Paul, Did you specify the ThecusCameraFile storage device in bacula-sd.conf as well? Did you restart the storage daemon so it would pick up the new config? If the answer to both questions is yes, could you please send us the storage definition from both bacula-dir.conf and bacula-sd.conf?

This is now the THIRD e-mail I've seen on this topic. Setting your
maximum number of volumes should probably solve this problem -- your
autochanger's slots have nothing to do with the number of volumes in the
pool -- it is coincidental.

When I run this job to restore files, the first thing I notice is that
the Job Summary (presented before run) shows that it will use Storage
"File". Why would it not use "ThecusCameraFile", as specified in the
job definition?
Needing the files restored, I modify the job run so that the Storage is
correct, like this:
Run Restore job
JobName:ThecusCameraRestoreFiles
Bootstrap: /var/lib/bacula/pluto-dir.7.restore.bsr
Where: /tmp/bacula-restores
Replace:always
FileSet:Full Set
Client: thecus_camera
Storage:ThecusCameraFile
When: 2007-10-08 07:17:10
Catalog:MyCatalog
Priority: 10
OK to run? (yes/mod/no): y
Job started. JobId=692
I quickly get a message informing me that the Storage is a problem:

[Bacula-users] Vista 64 and VSS
I'm attempting to backup a Vista 64 workstation with Bacula 2.2.4and getting errors for VSS on the machine. This is the first Vista 64 device I have attempted to use with Bacula. I am running multiple Vista 32 and XP clients with no errors. The error message: 06-Oct 23:30 Schmidt-hp8150-fd: Schmidt-HP8150.2007-10-06_23 .05.05 Warning: VSS was not initialized properly. VSS support is disabled. ERR=An attempt was made to reference a token that does not exist. Enable VSS = on is set in the fileset resource. In Windows Event Viewer/Windows Logs/Applications I get the following errors at the same time: Volume Shadow Copy Service error: The VSS Coordinator class is not registered. This may be caused due to a setup failure or as a result of an application's installer or uninstaller. Operation: Instantiating VSS server --- Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error calling routine CoCreateInstance. hr = 0x80040154. Operation: Instantiating VSS server - I have uninstalled and reinstalled the client multiple times. I have also verified in Windows Services that all of the COM+ services are running. I Googled the Windows error messages and there is a fair bit of discussion out there regarding various backup applications and Vista 64. Most of it centers around Vista 64 not being capable of using the 32 bit requester. Is anyone else out there experiencing the same issues? Or does anyone have a workaround? For the Bacula development community: If there is a need for testers for Vista 32, Vista 64, XP or Linux, I am interested in assisting.

Re: [Bacula-users] Mail problem
Hi Andy, The default mailcommand setting (which you have quoted) is to send mail with the "From" address being the same as the "To" address. Try replacing the first %r (which is the sender's email address) to something else, eg: mailcommand = "/usr/sbin/bsmtp -h localhost -f \"\(Bacula\) [EMAIL PROTECTED]" -s \"Bacula: %t %e of %c %l\" %r" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Not permitted (in reply to MAIL FROM command) Based on the above it looks like Postfix is discarding the message because it thinks that your bacula host is not authorised to send mail as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Try setting it to something else (maybe even a different domain name) and see if that will work. Alternately you could change your mail server config to accept mail from your bacula server, but that's an entirely different topic unrelated to bacula. Hope this helps.

I really don't understand your problem... Bacula will never try to use
a volume that doesn't exist in the catalog.
If you changed the autochanger contents, you need to run the 'update
slots' command.
If you need to prevent Bacula from even noting the existence of a
specific slot in your autochanger, you'd have to modify mtx-changer so
that it doesn't report that slot.
Hope that helps,
Arno

You're looking at the state of terminated jobs. If the daemon in question didn't save its state information before shutdown or restart, that information will not be updated. Actually, I don't think this "terminated jobs" listing is useful except in situations where you have more than one DIR, as more detailed and *by definition* complete and correct information is available in the catalog.

[Bacula-users] Understanding media-type
Hello Everyone! As I understand the manual each job is tied to a specific device in the storage daemon, either by the pool ressource or by the storage resource in the job resource. But the manual also tells about bacula selecting the first device, that can handle the media-type mentioned in the catalog for a job, to do a restore, but the restore job is also tied to a specific device, isn't it?

[Bacula-users] understanding "status" of serveral daemons.
hi. i am currently having trouble to understand why different daemons (fd, sd, dir) show different statuses. my "problem": why does a job that runs on all daemons (dir, sd, fd) do not show up in the "status" listings of these daemons? i haven't found much in-depth information in the docs, probably i was looking in the wrong places... my setup: 1 director 1 storage daemon several file daemons director and SD are running on the same machine; the SQL backend is postgresql-8.1 all machines have recently been upgraded from 2.0.2 to 2.2.4, and are running debian (mostly sarge) that's what i get when i do a "status dir ":: Terminated Jobs: JobId LevelFiles Bytes Status FinishedName 324 Incr 136.790 M OK 02-Oct-07 03:06 client1 325 Full298,323392.4 G OK 02-Oct-07 23:13 client2 326 Incr 4,118218.9 M OK 03-Oct-07 00:15 client3_0 327 Incr18626.89 M OK 03-Oct-07 03:05 client3_1 328 Incr301117.1 M OK 03-Oct-07 03:06 client4 329 Incr 399.478 M OK 03-Oct-07 03:06 client1 330 Incr 2,365134.6 M OK 04-Oct-07 00:11 client3_0 331 Incr 4731.37 M OK 04-Oct-07 03:05 client3_1 332 Incr17011.31 M OK 04-Oct-07 03:06 client4 333 Incr 3220.62 M OK 04-Oct-07 03:06 client1 that's what i get when i do a "status storage":: Terminated Jobs: JobId LevelFiles Bytes Status FinishedName === 309 Incr 3,159162.3 M OK 29-Sep-07 00:11 client3_0 310 Incr 3122.05 M OK 29-Sep-07 03:05 client3_1 311 Incr17763.22 M OK 29-Sep-07 03:06 client4 312 Diff160,89660.45 G OK 30-Sep-07 01:53 client3_0 313 Diff 2,924201.5 M OK 30-Sep-07 03:05 client3_1 314 Diff852127.4 M OK 30-Sep-07 03:06 client4 315 Incr86624.39 M OK 01-Oct-07 00:15 client3_0 316 Incr 3322.73 M OK 01-Oct-07 03:05 client3_1 317 Incr14362.49 M OK 01-Oct-07 03:05 client4 318 Full 74,8864.625 G Error01-Oct-07 10:26 client1 and that's what i get when i do a "status client=client1-fd":: Terminated Jobs: JobId LevelFiles Bytes Status FinishedName == 318 Full 74,8864.616 G Error01-Okt-07 10:26 client1 320 Full 79,02816.16 G OK 01-Okt-07 16:34 client1 324 Incr 136.790 M OK 02-Okt-07 03:06 client1 329 Incr 399.478 M OK 03-Okt-07 03:06 client1 333 Incr 3220.62 M OK 04-Okt-07 03:06 client1 334 Incr 2917.59 M OK 04-Okt-07 13:06 client1 340 Incr 95.811 M OK 05-Okt-07 03:07 client1 346 Incr 3224.97 M OK 06-Okt-07 03:07 client1 mfds.

It seems that the state changed between 2007-10-03 and 2007-10-04, I dump the 'list volumes' output to a file each day. 03-Okt-2007 20:05:02 llist volumes mediaid: 13 volumename: 06D132L3 [...] inchanger: 1 04-Okt-2007 20:05:02 llist volumes mediaid: 13 volumename: 06D132L3 [...] inchanger: 0 mtx correctly reports that the tape is in slot 13. At the moment I have no idea why the inchanger flag for this volume was set to 0. In the mtx.log I can see that an 'update slots' command was issued. But the output looks ok to me: 20071004-14:50:53 Parms: /dev/NEC-T40A load 13 /dev/ULTRIUM-TD3 0 20071004-14:50:53 Doing mtx -f /dev/NEC-T40A load 13 0 20071004-14:51:34 Parms: /dev/NEC-T40A loaded 13 /dev/ULTRIUM-TD3 0 20071004-14:51:34 Doing mtx -f /dev/NEC-T40A 0 -- to find what is loaded 20071004-14:51:34 Parms: /dev/NEC-T40A unload 13 /dev/ULTRIUM-TD3 0 20071004-14:51:34 Doing mtx -f /dev/NEC-T40A unload 13 0 I've updated the slots again and now the inchanger flag is 1. That was the reason why the volume wasn't used, now I only need to know why the inchanger flag was wrongly set to 0. Ralf - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Then you should first upgrade and then investigate further - there have been modifications done to the recycling code.

Crossing your fingers, unfortunately, don't help here. You need a 2.2.4 SD as mentioned in the release notes. Compiling Bacula from source is not too problematic - you need the required packages, of course, but in the end you can expect to have a working Bacula setup. (Also, the source rpm for 2.2.4 should be possible to install and compile on 9.3 with minor tweaks only.) ... > Thanks, > Jason Antman By the way - are you the Jason Antman running the blog containing http://jantman.dyndns.org:10011/blog/2007/03/managing-g1-proliant-servers-with.html ?

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula Label Error - Newbie
Hi Jason, I had the same problem before. The volume is already labelled, so Bacula will not relabel it. But it's not in the catalog, so you cannot use it for backups. I got around it by using the "add" command to update the catalog only, without trying to label the tape. Run a test job to make sure it worked, but it did fix the problem for me. Hope this helps.

[Bacula-users] Bacula 2.2.4 logging to MySQL
Hi Guys, I have a bacula set up that has been running for a while, and recently I introduced an additional backup server to this. We went with Bacula-mysql 2.2.4 (compared to 2.0.2 on our previous servers), added the clients to be backed up, and ran "status all" in bconsole. In version 2.0.2 this added all the clients to the "Client" MySQL table, and allowed all backups etc to be logged to MySQL. Unfortunately in 2.2.4 this is not the case, and nothing was logged to MySQL. I have the following line in my bacula-fd.conf for the logging - can you let me know if I am missing anything: catalog = all, !skipped, !saved Chris - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Bacula-users] Bacula Label Error - Newbie
Hello, I'm a IT major at Rutgers University and am working on installing Bacula on my personal network. It's made up of 8 Linux boxes, mainly used for email, web, and development - not exactly "critical". I've been experimenting with Bacula for the past day (about 20 hours by now) mainly trying to figure out the config files, with the aid of Webmin at times. Right now I'm doing manual weekly tapes, and my tape drives are listed on the known-to-work list, so I decided to try disk-only for now. I'm working on 2 machines. The director is on STOR1, running OpenSuSE 10.2 with Bacula installed via the OpenSuSE "bacula-mysql-2.2.4-1" RPM. My storage daemon is installed on "janus", running SuSE 9.3 (yeah, I know, upgrade is coming soon, but it's running fine and internal only) with the "bacula-1.36.3-3.2" and "bacula-server-1.36.3-3" RPMs installed. I crossed my fingers on the lower version because the bacula 2.x RPMs would require massive dependency upgrades, and probably braking some other stuff along the way. I thought I had everything configured properly. I ran bconsole on the director (STOR1) in an attempt to label a volume on janus, the storage machine. Output: Connecting to Director STOR1:9101 1000 OK: STOR1-dir Version: 2.2.4 (14 September 2007) Enter a period to cancel a command. *label Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog Using Catalog "MyCatalog" The defined Storage resources are: 1: STOR1-sd-home 2: janus-sd Select Storage resource (1-2): 2 Enter new Volume name: JANUS-HDD-BACULA1 Automatically selected Pool: DiskVolume Connecting to Storage daemon janus-sd at janus.jasonantman.com:9103 ... Sending label command for Volume "JANUS-HDD-BACULA1" Slot 0 ... 3000 OK label. Volume=JANUS-HDD-BACULA1 Device=/mnt/hdd/BACULA Label command failed for Volume JANUS-HDD-BACULA1. Do not forget to mount the drive!!! *exit Now the problem: if I run "list media", the volume "JANUS-HDD-BACULA1" doesn't show up. However, if I re-run the label command: *label Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog Using Catalog "MyCatalog" The defined Storage resources are: 1: STOR1-sd-home 2: janus-sd Select Storage resource (1-2): 2 Enter new Volume name: JANUS-HDD-BACULA1 Automatically selected Pool: DiskVolume Connecting to Storage daemon janus-sd at janus.jasonantman.com:9103 ... Sending label command for Volume "JANUS-HDD-BACULA1" Slot 0 ... 3911 Cannot label Volume because it is already labeled: "JANUS-HDD-BACULA1" Label command failed for Volume JANUS-HDD-BACULA1. Do not forget to mount the drive!!! *exit it appears to think that the volume is already labeled. If I try to delete media, the volume is also not shown as an option. Any suggestions on how to get out of this seemingly infinite loop? It's telling me that all label commands on that daemon return 3000 OK and then says failed, so it's telling me that the labels exist yet they're not showing up as valid media.
