[Bacula-users] update slots doesn't handle removed volumes
Hi, I've noticed that running update slots marks as added any volumes which have been added to the autochanger but doesn't mark as removed any which have been removed.

[Bacula-users] Mixing tape and file backup same host
Hello, I would like to make daily backup of one host to disk and a weekly backup of this host to tape. But I can't define 2 different pool (the pool for daily and the pool for weekly) for this host. Is it possible in other way ? Otherwise, do I have to define a new host for the weekly tape backup ? I'm using bacula 2.2.8 on Debian. Thanks.

Re: [Bacula-users] Mixing tape and file backup same host
Hi, Yes, its posible. You have to make two pools. one with the file storage and one with the tape storage. And make 2 schedules (tape and file storage) and define in the schedule the pool on witch you want to backup. regards, Jan Jaap Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2008 10:44:59 +0100 From: pdgatouil...@fr.scc.com To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Bacula-users] Mixing tape and file backup same host Hello, I would like to make daily backup of one host to disk and a weekly backup of this host to tape.

Hi,
In your pool, you have Maximum Volume Jobs = 2. I suppose you put the backup of catalog on tape every day ?
With the directive, your volume should be Used after the daily backup cycle.
No I backup catalog on hard disk, because I put backup of some computers
on the disk. I have some kind of mixed backup. Should I reduce Maximum
Volume Jobs to 1 for tape, because on every tape it will be really only
one job?
Riho
Did you label your volume with the directive Maximum Volume Jobs = 2 set ? You can check it with
llist media (llist with two l) and look at the Maximum Volume Jobs line. You can update this with
the update command.
Hope that help.

Objet : [Bacula-users] Daily Tape Rotation questions
Hi!
I am useing daily tape rotation. I change tape every day and
useing Full
backup Level on each tape. Each tape has it's own volume and vaolume
retention time is 6 days and 12 days for friday tape (I have
2 of friday
tapes). Point is that after retention time Bacula
automatically purges
volume and makes tape writable again, so after every 7 days
bacula would
write brand new data to tape. But it don't do this, it marks tape
Append, don't purge it and don't write new data to it. What
could be wrong.
For Bacula configuration I used description on
http://www.bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Backup_Strategies.html#SEC
TION00303
I attach example of my configuration too:

This looks good and should work.
But in the job config of the client, we have to set one pool
directive, we can't set two pools. (I tried it but bacula complains
with error)
You need just one pool here, the pool that will be used comes from the
Run line in your schedule resource. This will override the settings in
your job resource.
Job {
Name = client
Client = client-fd
Type = Backup
FileSet = FileSet-coheris-tgv
Pool = DailyFile
#Pool = Weekly
Storage = HP_LTO2
Storage = File
Schedule = NightlySave
Write Bootstrap = /var/lib/bacula/client.bsr

}
When I ask list nextvol for the client :
Could not find next Volume for Job client (Pool=Weekly, Level=Full).
I would try a testbackup, maybe change the schedule for this, so that
you don't have to wait a whole day for the incremantal backup.

[Bacula-users] Possible to back up from a VMWare-loop mounted partition? (vmware-mount zombie)
We're looking at using Bacula to back up the contents of VMware virtual machines from snapshots of the filesystem containing the VMDK file. In particular, we have a test instance of FreeNAS in a VMware virtual machine, and a server running Bacula that makes snapshots and performs from-snapshot and from-client backups reliably (although more slowly than we would like). I wrote a BeforeJob script like the following: ## (omitting our standard command that makes and mounts a snapshot) sudo mount /mnt/iofreenastest -o remount,rw yes | sudo /opt/vmware-server/bin/vmware-mount.pl \ /mnt/iofreenastest/FreeNAS.vmdk 6 /mnt/freenas-6 \ -o ufstype=5xbsd,ro sleep 3 mount | grep 'on /mnt/freenas-6' || exit 1 However, when the job ran, the director never picked up after the BeforeJob. A few hours later, I checked on it. Here's what some of ps aefx looked like: 17247 ?Ssl2:02 /usr/sbin/bacula-dir -c /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf - 19430 ?Z 0:00 \_ [freenas_before] defunct 19575 ?S 0:00 sh -c '/opt/vmware-server/bin/vmware-loop' -q '/mnt/i 19576 ?S 0:01 \_ /opt/vmware-server/bin/vmware-loop -q /mnt/iofree 19577 ?S 0:00 \_ /opt/vmware-server/bin/vmware-loop -q /mnt/io (there was a yes process in there as well, but it has scrolled off my screen) I tried unsticking it by killing the yes process and the sh process, both with no effect. Killing the vmware-loop process got it going again, but of course that unmounted the directory I wanted to back up, and actually caused the job to fail: 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: run command /etc/bacula/scripts/freenas_before 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: Snapshot already exists. 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: Cleaning up stale snapshot bacula-immediate-6135a of 10.x.y.z... 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: deleting snapshot... 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: LUN unmapped OK. 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: creating snapshot... 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: lun map: auto-assigned Backup=0 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: iscsiadm: No active sessions. 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: 10.x.y.z:3260,2000 iqn.1992-08.com.netapp:sn.sn 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: Login session [iface: default, target: iqn.1992-08.com.netapp:sn.sn, portal: 10.x.y.z,3260] 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: Rescanning session [sid: 58, iface: , target: iqn.1992-08.com.netapp:sn.sn, portal: 10.x.y.z,3260] 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: VMware for Linux - Virtual Hard Disk Mounter 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: Version: 1.0 build-* 18-Dec 19:46 backup-test2-dir: BeforeJob: Copyright 1998 VMware, Inc.

[Bacula-users] status director and scheduled jobs
I have several tapes in several pools. I use Volume Use Duration = 23 hours for each pool. Sometimes when I run the stat dir command within the bconsole, I see *unknown* for the scheduled jobs volume. That's because all volumes in the pool have status used. The moment the backup starts, he changed the status to purged for the expired volumes. Is there a way I can display the correct output for scheduled jobs volume without manually pruning the expired volumes ?. It would be handy because I have no library.

To ensure that small incremental and diff jobs are dumped in one hit and to ensure that full backups are laid in as large chunks as possible, this is the kindof size which is required. Are you having that many clients or is it actually larger volumes that have been split up in smaller filesets? Mostly larger volumes broken into 1Tb filesets. There are about 150 desktop boxes being backed up but their load is minor. Yes, I use spooling even for our +2TB volumes. I hope you've benchmarked restore times. Between the sheer volume of data and the possibilities of several million files, we settled on 1Tb as a workable unit for current technology and even that's had trouble when restoring some filesystems (10 million file restores make Bacula-dir unhappy!) 250Tb startup, 1Pb within 18 months, and growing past that. Filesizes measured in tens of Mb apiece. Still over Gigabit netwok or do you have better infrastructure? Right now the links are Gb, with some LACP overlaying being done, but as this larger fileset comes online most stuff will be moved to 8Gb/s fibre (IP over F/O) and 10Gb/s ethernet. Prices on this gear (especially switches!) are falling fast so it makes sense to not deploy until actually needed. -- ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
[Bacula-users] documentation templates
Hi, If anyone has a documentation template for especially suitable for documenting a Bacula implementation, preferably some standards- based or following ITIL guidelines.. and of course, if it's license permits it, please contribute it. I know, this might sound a pretty stupid for some of you (if it does, do not waste time answering to this message), but it would REALLY save time from many of us. Not everyone (me including) have studied the ITIL books through, so this kind of contribution would also bring some credibility for business users. j -- ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
Re: [Bacula-users] Postgres functions for interpreting the bacula LStat column
The advantage of a C stored procedure is speed:
bacula=# SELECT MAX('a'||bacula_lstat_mtime(lstat)) FROM file WHERE
fileid100 ;
max
-
a2008-02-27 20:24:10-05
(1 row)
Time: 70.689 ms
bacula=# SELECT MAX(base64_decode_lstat(12,lstat)*interval '1 second' +
timestamptz 'epoch') FROM file WHERE fileid100 ;
max
2008-02-27 20:24:10-05
(1 row)
Time: 762.390 ms
Otherwise, the PL/perl function does the same thing; thanks for the pointer!

Yes, for sure but it's also a bit more complex to install...
To speedup things (for reading), it's also possible to create an index (i will
add the IMMUTABLE parameter)

[Bacula-users] Problem in recycle file
Hello,
I use the media device below:
Device {
Name = FileStorage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /mnt/backup/
LabelMedia = yes;
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = Yes;
RemovableMedia = No;
AlwaysOpen = No;
}
And all jobs are 15 days of retentions.
My pools' configuration:
Pool {
Name = Default
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 15 days
Use Volume Once = yes
}
But after 30 days, or 45 days, etc, my file in /mnt/backup is growing. Some
ideia? Ever I have that remove volume and recreate in the hand. I don't want
it. Recycle isn't working.

Remember that volume retention period begins after a volume is marked
Full or Used.
Unless you limit its size or usage (which you have not done) it will
grow till the disk fills up because it will not be marked Full or
Used. Activating your volume retention period.
