To follow certain bug fixes more precisely, have a look at bugs.bacula.og Also, though not very convenient, you can use Sourceforge's svn explorer to see the older versions of the ReleaseNotes files...

My thought was to put it into the bacula/examples directory, where the original SSH information is, or just leave it in the email archive in case somebody manages to google it, or even out it into the main documentation. But I can certainly put it into the Wiki. One concern I have is that there are just too many places to look for documentation; I had completely missed the Wiki. Now that I know about it, I notice that I'm probably not the only one; there was an answer to a question I have seen posted several times in just the last few weeks right there (how to use removable hard disks as a backup medium http://wiki.bacula.org/doku.php?id=removable_disk).

[Bacula-users] Bacula went fubar after some weeks
Dear list, Bacula : strange things happening at night After running successfully (besides weird verify issues) Bacula (2.4.1 on Debian Etch) has gone fubar. We have a single slot tapedrive with 2 schedules. Each session contains 3 jobs: full backup, verify, backup catalog There is a daily schedule (run on Monday-Thursday) (4 tapes) and a weekly schedule run on Fridays (3 tapes). All full backup using a single tape per day/session. A full cycle would consist of: daily cycle (4 days/tapes) weektape #1 daily cycle (recycling the 4 tapes) weektape #2 daily cycle (recycling the 4 tapes) weektape #3 And rerun the full cycle (recycling the 3 weektapes too) And at that point things did go horribly wrong: Bacula never created (auto label) weektape #3 but instead: - volume Bacula_Weekly-WeekTape-1 was set to recycle - Bacula wanted to write to that tape and not the blank tape (never used) in the drive (was meant to become Bacula_Weekly-WeekTape-3) This sounded strange to me as the retention time was 19 days and it was only 14 days after the volume Bacula requested was written to. Error report: Please mount Volume Bacula_Weekly-WeekTape-1 or label a new one As it was a very inconvenient moment for me at that time and I did not see a simple solution I deciced to kill all three running jobs. At this point I was under the impression that I had to look into the issue but that the other schedule would keep running. I was wrong. At Monday night I came across the following situation: - Three jobs started as scheduled - error report: waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes. Please use the label command to create a new Volume The correct (Monday) tape was inserted and mounted but for some reason the volume was not re-used although it this schedule cycle had already had been run 3 times successfully! Taking a closer look revealed: (running status all in bconsole) - according to the scheduling overview the jobs were executed to use the proper volumes - according to the running job it was looking for a volume without a name - the volume in use was the volume Bacula_Weekly-WeekTape-3. How strange! I canceled all jobs for the weekly (Friday) schedule on Sunday as that volume was never created and Bacula wanted to use volume Bacula_Weekly-WeekTape-1 instead (see above). After some manual pruning and updating volumes suddenly Bacula wanted volume/tape Tuesday. At this time it was way beyond 00.00 so it actually was Tuesday but the jobs were executed to use volume/tape Monday. For some reason (it ran towards 03.00 am) I wanted some sleep and I decided to kill the scheduled jobs. After(!) I did this for some reason the verify job ran (although canceled) and reported many new file (my verify issue reported earlier). Either I am doing something terribly wrong or I ran into a serious bug I suppose. The in use volume looked a bit like a ghost job which I (and others as I saw on this list) have seen before. No idea how to get rid of these things besides restarting the director. Any suggestions on that subject please? If I am doing something wrong, can it be related to the use of a counter (which is not very well documented in the docs)? What am I doing wrong? I am quite stuck here.

All full backup using a single tape per day/session. A full cycle would consist of: daily cycle (4 days/tapes) weektape #1 daily cycle (recycling the 4 tapes) weektape #2 daily cycle (recycling the 4 tapes) weektape #3 And rerun the full cycle (recycling the 3 weektapes too) And at that point things did go horribly wrong: Bacula never created (auto label) weektape #3 but instead: - volume Bacula_Weekly-WeekTape-1 was set to recycle - Bacula wanted to write to that tape and not the blank tape (never used) in the drive (was meant to become Bacula_Weekly-WeekTape-3) This sounded strange to me as the retention time was 19 days and it was only 14 days after the volume Bacula requested was written to. Error report: Please mount Volume Bacula_Weekly-WeekTape-1 or label a new one As it was a very inconvenient moment for me at that time and I did not see a simple solution I deciced to kill all three running jobs. At this point I was under the impression that I had to look into the issue but that the other schedule would keep running. I was wrong. At Monday night I came across the following situation: - Three jobs started as scheduled - error report: waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes. Please use the label command to create a new Volume The correct (Monday) tape was inserted and mounted but for some reason the volume was not re-used although it this schedule cycle had already had been run 3 times successfully! Taking a closer look revealed: (running status all in bconsole) - according to the scheduling overview the jobs were executed to use the proper volumes -

[Bacula-users] Bweb and brestore
Hi list! I've been testing bacula for a while, before make it our main backup software. It's amazing and very flexible, but there is something I can't resolve, and didn't find out much information. After some work, I could install bweb, and looks promising, but couldn't resolve how to make brestore work. The server is a Debian lenny, using bacula from .deb repositories. Here is what I see. When I run /usr/bin/brestore.pl, I get this output: Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: at /usr/bin/brestore.pl line 3327. Which is OK, as the box doesn't have any graphical interface, but it let me know that there is no perl dependencies. But when I want to go through web, all I get is a text file (From: Job - restore): Content-Type: text/brestore; charset=ISO-8859-1 You have to assign this mime type with /usr/bin/brestore.pl The same result is from console: # perl /usr/lib/cgi-bin/bweb/bweb.pl action=restore Content-Type: text/brestore; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Type: text/brestore; charset=ISO-8859-1 You have to assign this mime type with /usr/bin/brestore.pl Using apache2, added the next line to /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/mime.conf AddType text/brestore .pl Tried too: AddType text/brestore /usr/bin/brestore.pl Without results...

[Bacula-users] bacula-fd not playing nice with time critical apps
Hi, I'm doing a backup on a Debian Etch server which runs a network/time critical app at -20 niceness, but even with nice -n19 bacula-fd still causes glitches (packetloss). They seem to happen when the backup starts and ends, during the backup (doing 20-23 MB/s) there is no problem. An incremental backup that takes 5 seconds still causes a glitch, although much smaller. Doing an 'estimate job=servername' via bconsole causes no glitch, but this is probably due to caching after the backup (returns immediately with the correct answer). This makes me think it is disk IO related (2x15K rpm SAS drives in RAID1 on Dell Perc/5i - backup goes to other disk array over Gb Ethernet/Fiber). Is there a way to solve this on the Bacula side? The server is normally using only a few percent CPU, with bacula-fd going up to 15-25% at most, it's scheduling, or some disk related holdup that seems to be the problem. -- Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.

In answer to John's question, this is happening with all backup types (Full, Incremental, Differential). I went through a lot of the performance-related messages in the archives before emailing the list, but didn't find much that was relevant. The most common problems seemed to be crappy database performance (not my issue - the test case I've been using is only hitting 30-40 files/230MB on its Incrementals), using crappy hardware (not my issue as far as I can see), and compression. A couple things I neglected to list in my first message: - Turning off VSS has no effect on Windows backup speeds - My database has all three recommended indices, though I've not added any more My server's network performance seems all right. Testing basic TCP throughput with iperf, I'm showing an average of 880Mbps or so. FTP downloads to this server hum along at about 85MB/s.

[Bacula-users] FreeBSD Bare Metal Recovery
I'm using this to recover data onto a FreeBSD 7.1 prerelease server: http://www.bacula.org/fr/dev-manual/Disast_Recove_Using_Bacula.html#SECTION0 082314000 All of the steps work up until #17 where I need to chroot in order to start the bacula-fd daemon. I get the following error message: /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object libz.so.4 not found, required by bacula-fd I see that I have that file in /dist/libexec on the LiveFS cd-rom. Why doesn't the recovery process see that file? Should I do a symlink? If so, what should be the exact syntax? It's possible that the bacula-fd was compiled on a different version of FreeBSD- i.e. 6.2 versus 7.x. Unfortunately I did not make a backup of the bacula-fd file from the failed server and store elsewhere. Hints, anyone?

[Bacula-users] Data Encrypting on Winbacula
Hi all, I've been using bacula for a while now with tls and it works great! Now, I would like to make the jump on some of the testing machines I'm using to have data encrypting working. I've looked on this site as well as going to the manual on setting up configuration on a Windows client to do the encrypting. Two things: 1. Can TLS and data encrypting work together? 2. What is the right command for using openssl toolkit for Windows to create the private/public keypair? Also, if possible do anyone has written procedures that they did to get data encryption going to share as a guideline. I would appreciate any help and knowledge sharing on setting up the data encryption on Windows so that I can determine the need to have data secure, versus tls, as well as understanding the overhead that will be involve if it's put in production.

Unfortunately, the problem is not yet resolved for Debian users, because the solution is in the development code which is not yet released for production. It is currently undergoing beta testing, and hopefully it will be released in late March or April. Best regards, Kern Thank you Kern for responding. I think you are saying if I can find the right Debian test or development repository I will have a working version of bacula. I will look around. I have been trying to build bacula with encryption support, which seems to work. I have so far failed at getting the debian package management to install my packages instead of the main repositories. When I understand that I will will know more about debian repository management. Perhaps I will get their test repositories to work before my test repositories.

Here are the bugs for debian.

If yes we should submit a bug request. I'm cc'ing a maintainer. Please see NEWS.Debian.gz in the bacula-common package. This is somewhat of a FAQ by now. The problem is not that the license for Bacula is non-free, or that the license for OpenSSL is non-free, but that the two are not compatible. ISTR hearing from someone (Kern maybe) that the Bacula license may be revised in the future to eliminate this problem. Note that README.Debian contains instructions to build your own bacula with SSL/TLS support, which is a quite easy procedure. I didn't really dig into the issue itself, so I can't tell if it has been removed. I am refering to this post from Landon Fuller: http://www.adsm.org/lists/html/Bacula-users/2008-08/msg00634.html It is all about this: http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2007/07/msg00144.html Wether or not the package is compiled with tls support is really up to the maintainer, but in Debian Etch it was (The version used in Sarge did not have tls support). My understanding was, that Kern changed the Bacula code to solve the problem.

Re: [Bacula-users] how to skip job when missed
