Hello,
I'm using Bacula 2.0.3 (Dir / SD / FD ) run on a Windows NT 4.0 Sp6 Fr

I went on the Search for Open Source HA software and came across this: http://www.drbd.org/. Hopefully this will do the Job. Backups aren't my main concern because Bacula has that covered, what I was looking for was something that had HA capabilities and I hoped Bacula had something like that but have a look at the URLquite interesting. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Bacula-users] Verify-Job with a missing file ends in a loop ....
.. if the message-resource contains:
catalog = all
like this one i'm using:
Messages {
Name = VerifyJobs
mailcommand = /sbin/bsmtp -h localhost -f \\(Bacula\) %r\ -s \%t %e of
%c %l\ %r
mail = [EMAIL PROTECTED] = all
catalog = all
}
what i have done:
after an InitCatalog I have touched a file /etc/einetestdatei.
the next verify-job reports an error New file ...
so i did the InitCatalog again.
after that i have removed the new file and started a verify-job.
the normal CatalogVerify-Jobs take about 2 minutes, so i have cancled this job
after 6 minutes.
then i got the email about the job:

[Bacula-users] Install HowTo for Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS
I apologize in advance if I'm asking this question on the wrong space I recently wrestled w/ Bacula and Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS for a few days before I got everything installed and running correctly. I have kept track of what needed to be done to achieve compile and installation happiness, and I'd like to post the mini HowTo somewhere. Where do such things live for the Bacula world? Many thanks!

[Bacula-users] Verifying run of backups - script?
My Bacula installation is progressing well. I was wondering - I know that Bacula can send email messages at the termination of a job, and can do this based on status of the job. However, what about if a job (or Bacula as a whole) isn't running? Does anyone have a script that can check all jobs that should have been run to make sure they were? Essentially, what I'm looking for (or may be writing) is a little script (Python maybe?) that will find all jobs that should have been run this calendar day (I guess by parsing the director config file, since it's not stored in the database) and then check the Jobs table to be sure that they actually ran and ended successfully. If all is ok, it would send an email with a subject like Bacula on HOSTNAME - DATE - All OK or would alert if there are any errors. I'd run it as a cron job so that it's entirely independent of Bacula. The idea is 1) It's a real pain to sift through daemon e-mails for every job looking to make sure they terminated ok 2) I don't want error emails only, because I want to be able to ensure that everything I want running is, in fact, running. Any thoughts? -Jason - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems? Stop. Now Search log events and configuration files using AJAX and a browser.

Re: [Bacula-users] Verifying run of backups - script?
To make sure a job ran, simply mash up a bash script (or php/python) and run an sql query for all jobs that started on a certain day. Then you could compile this in a single readable e-mail. Then add an admin job which runs the script at a specified time every day (preferably after your backups, so I'd give it a higher priority).

[Bacula-users] Separate (PostgreSQL) database required for Verify Catalog?
Hi all,
I'm trying to set up a Verify Job configuration and noticed in the Bacula
User's Guide, which provides an example Catalog for running a Verify Job,
the following:
Catalog {
Name = Bacula
dbname = verify; user = bacula; password =
}
This example implies that a separate database named verify should be used
as well as a user and password to connect to such a database. However, when
I looked at (I'm using PostgreSQL 8.1.9) the scripts for making / creating /
deleting, etc. (such as create_postgresql_database, make_catalog_backup,
etc.) there are no scripts specific for managing a verify-specific database.
Rather than requiring a separate Verify database, is it possible for the
main Catalog Resource used by the Director to be shared for Verify Jobs?
Thank you,
-H

the following:
Catalog {
Name = Bacula
dbname = verify; user = bacula; password =

I believe this case is for a verify job for data that was never backed
up. Bacula has the ability to tell you what files have changed between
running an InitCatalog job and a Catalog job. In these jobs only the
signatures (MD5 or SHA1) are stored or compared. I believe the
example shows you could use a separate database for this.

Re: [Bacula-users] Verifying run of backups - script?
Thanks to all for the advice. I hadn't even thought of the Nagios passive check option. That sounds best for me - I'll look into it tomorrow. I haven't done anything with passive checks and freshness checking, but luckily I picked up the Nagios book - something good for bedtime reading... As to the Nagios check plugin for bacula, I installed bacula from the bacula-mysql SuSE RPM. Unfortunately, the RPM didn't include the check plugin, and I don't have the source to compile the plugin. I guess it's time to look for a source RPM... Thanks, Jason Arno Lehmann wrote: Hi, 16.10.2007 20:32,, Ryan Novosielski wrote:: There is also a Nagios plugin for Bacula.
