Re: [Bacula-users] How to avoid The sizes do not match!?
You could configure your Bacula to use new volume for every job, this could
solve your problem.

Subject: [Bacula-users] How to avoid The sizes do not match!?
Hi there,
We're currently using bacula 3.0.2 to backup some windows XP and Vista clients.
Every now and then, while a backup (Diff or Full) are running, the user may
turn of his/her laptop, network issues may occur or whatever else may cause a
connection error and then obviously the backup fails.
My problem is that each time this happens and the next client's backup starts
to make use of the same volume, it gives me the Error: Bacula cannot write on
disk Volume Diff_Vol0217 because: The sizes do not match! error message and
marks the volume in error in the catalog.
Is there any wau to avoid this happening each time?
Pool definition:
Pool {
Name = Diff
Label Format = Diff_Vol
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 3 days
Maximum Volumes = 7
Maximum Volume Bytes = 40G
}
Thanks in advance :)

Hi, 16.10.2009 00:38, Dupree, Craig wrote: Hi Arno, Theoretically, yes, though it will lock up your tape drive for a while, and might leave you with an incomplete backup. If the job was actually finished writing to tape, and you're absolutely sure everything you need ended up on tape, you could do that. A full backup would lock the tape drive up for longer though. If that's the case, use bscan. Although I found that bscanning usually takes longer than writing, though there are some factors involved which make that hard to guess - starting with your network and client throughput during backup, if spooling is used, and the catalog performance. At least the tape drive is actually hooked up to the system. I suppose I should just bite the bullet, and backup again. That way I know that I'm safe. That's surely right... The error was: 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=Disk is full writing './bacula/File.MYD' (Errcode: 28). Waiting for someone to free space... Retry in 60 The director claimed that it was inserting the attributes. This was the first clue that there was problem, as this was what it said at 6:00 am when I woke up checked the system out. I remember thinking yea it finished. Then later when I got in to work, I pulled my checklist off of the printer, logged in to the backup server since that is check 1. It still said inserting attributes, and then when I got to step 2 (check disk space) then I knew what the problem was. Hmm... the cases when I had that same problem usually resolved without permanent erros, but I assume there might be some timeouts either in MySQL or Bacula. In your case, the disk full condition might have existed for too long to Bacula to automatically recover. But this seems to confirm that the disk full was indeed the underlying problem, and the insertion of the attributes finally failed. This is for the older 2.x release. I plan to upgrade to 3.x over the Winter break. Perhaps better to add more disk space first :-) Yes. Or at least re-installing the system so it is laid out better.

Do you have spooling enabled? Enabling spooling should work around a
failure on the client side during the backup during writing of the spool
(the job will just fail), if the spooling part gets done OK then bacula
will start writing to the real volume.
Note: this will only really work if your spool can hold the full backup,
otherwise something can go wrong during the multiple spooling /
despooling phases.
Note2: iirc bacula wont actually finish the job on the client side until
the despooling is also completed so things may still go wrong during the
despooling phase even if the SD already has all the data when the client
goes away, but the time to despool is (for me) much faster than getting
data directly from the client, so the window for failure gets a lot smaller.

[Bacula-users] Renaming volumes...
Hi,
I use a USB disk as storage and at first I had volumes labeled like this:
Label Format = ${Client}.${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}.full.v${NumVols}
Label Format = ${Client}.${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}.diff.v${NumVols}
Label Format = ${Client}.${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}.incr.v${NumVols}
But, after seeing that the date is useless/confusing with the recycling, I'd
like to use this:
Label Format = ${Client}.full.v${NumVols}
Label Format = ${Client}.diff.v${NumVols}
Label Format = ${Client}.incr.v${NumVols}
Is there a list of steps to follow or is it a nightmare?
Or, at worse, how can I restart from 'zero'?
Delete from the console and then the files?
Thx,
JD

Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] VirtualFull backup: bacula selects the wrong read device
Hello,
On Monday 12 October 2009 04:09:16 Nicolae Mihalache wrote:
I tried your change but VirtualFull with multiple read devices is not
working. Restore is working but it was working even without your change.
Yes, I hadn't noticed one small important detail in your code :-( so my code
didn't implement what you had done.
I think I know why:
1. the code from reserve.c:637
dcr = new_dcr(rctx.jcr, rctx.jcr-dcr, rctx.device-dev);
always changes the write device, never the read device. The function
new_dcr returns the rctx.jcr-dcr if it's not NULL. Your change of
removing the rctx.jcr-dcr= in front has no effect when the dcr is
not NULL.
2. however, further down in reserve.c:716
rctx.jcr-read_dcr = dcr;
this makes effectively the read_dcr the same with the write dcr. The old
read_dcr is lost.
3. why restoring from multiple devices works? Because after the first
pass, the read_dcr and the write dcr are the same, so in all the
subsequent passes, changing the write dcr will also change the read_dcr.
In restores the write dcr is not used so it all works.
4. why the virtual full backup works when there is only one read device?
Because the storage director selects first the read dcr (overwriting in
the same time the write dcr) but then it creates a brand new write dcr
in reserve.c:251. So the original write dcr is used for reading and a
new dcr is used for writing. This all happens before the backup starts
when the dcr pointers can still change (apparently).
5. why the virtual full backup doesn't work when there is more than one
device? Because the trick of transforming the write dcr into the
read_dcr doesn't work anymore first because the backup has started and
dcr pointers can't change anymore and second because the write dcr is
still needed.
OK. I have reviewed the code again, and put in your code but re-written
slightly. The only problem is that it then breaks bextract. After a good
deal of debugging, I finally figured out why (a problem of initialization of
read_dcr I think). It is now fixed and in version 3.0.3.

By the way, the new_dcr(), form me is OK as is. It does indeed create a
new dcr, but if it is possible to reuse the existing one, it does rather
than mallocing a new one. In any case, any change to new_dcr() is a bit
more disruptive than I would like to do just now.
The name new_dcr is confusing (not anymore to me). The function returns
the dcr passed as argument unless it was null. It should be perhaps
called renew_dcr. Maybe I'm spoiled by all these OOP languages where
new of something makes you a brand new object.
I have attached the patch that went into version 3.0.3 (applies in principle
to 3.0.2 on top of my previous (broken) patch. You will see that the code in
reserve.c is essentially identical to yours, and there is one new line added
to acquire.c (jcr-read_dcr = dcr;) that is important if you want bextract
to work.
Version 3.0.3 should be released Monday at the latest ...
Thanks for your work on this. It was extremely helpful.

Re: [Bacula-users] autochanger and barcode
Nicola, If you're using barcodes you can greatly simplify what you're doing. Instead of using one pool per day, just use one pool for all backups and one scratch pool. Place all the tapes in the scratch pool. Forget about trying to keep straight which tape is for which day and let bacula track that for you. When you need to do a restore, let bacula tell you which volumes that data is on. Set volume retention, job retention, file retention, and volume use duration if you find that you don't fill up a tape as fast as you would like, then if you wanted to do some inchanger-out of changer tape rotation, periodically remove tapes marked Full or Used. To label them do 'label barcodes slots=first-last substituting the slot numbers for the first and last slots holding the tapes to be labelled.

If you're using barcodes you can greatly simplify what you're doing. Instead of using one pool per day, just use one pool for all backups and one scratch pool. Place all the tapes in the scratch pool. BTW, I definitely agree with this. It's best not to have 1 pool per day if you do not really need that. Having this many pools is going to reduce the number autochanger slots you have available. At minimum 7 slots will have partially used tapes at all times and if you have any retention period this will use at least 14 slots when the first volume of each pool is full.

Furthermore, once you have more than a really small number of backup jobs, backups you keep, clients, and media, you need some way to track all of that. Bacula's database catalog is, compared to most of the other solutions I had to suffer, astonishingly robust. Furthermore, you can do as many dumps of it as you like. And any manual way of managing that information is, in my opinion, doomed to fail - I recall when I was using tar and lots of post-its on the tapes, and then tar plus some script resulting in printouts of the backup information... unmaintainable is a polite word to describe that. In short, the catalog *any* serious backup solution provides is essential, and you've simply got to trust it. Bacula's catalog is one of the more robust versions of such a catalog, and thus it's unlikely any alternative will work more considerably reliable. Arno cut... Thanks.

[Bacula-users] Tape Problems
Hi everyone! I having some problems with my backup planning. I want to work with five tapes per week. One for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. This five tapes will be used till the end of the month. The problem is the following. The backup finished OK yesterday (Thursday). Later I changed the tape for one labeled Friday. However, when bacula started its jobs, it required the Thursday tape instead of using the new tape and did not finished the backup job. How can I make this work?

And then only put the Monday tape in the MondayPool and then have your schedule backup jobs on Monday to the MondayPool ... A hack to force Bacula to use the Friday tape today is to update volume on the Thursday Tape and mark it Full or Used Then purge the Friday tape. John -- Come build with us!

Hi,

like to use this:
Label Format = ${Client}.full.v${NumVols}
Label Format = ${Client}.diff.v${NumVols}
Label Format = ${Client}.incr.v${NumVols}
Is there a list of steps to follow or is it a nightmare?
Not a nightmare, but lots of sql digging ...
Or, at worse, how can I restart from 'zero'?
Delete from the console and then the files?
You can use the delete volume on bconsole ( this ensure not leaving orphaned
file/jobs/volumes in db )
After that you can delete corresponding volumes.
(I would tend to prefer this one)

I don't think this is possible but you could some bash script to sort:
-init of bconsole.sh script ---
#!/bin/bash
bconsole EOF
messages
list jobs
EOF
end of bash script ---
$ ./bconsole.sh | dos2unix | awk '{ print $15 }' | sort -n
That is just an idea (I use a lot of this kind of scripts with
bconsole). Right know I'm not sure if 15th (from $15 in awk command)
column of 'list jobs' output contains bytes size of the backup.
I hope this helps

I created the new pools but I had a problem.:
pool directive in Job BKP_Servidor resource is required, but not found.
What pool I can configure here? I putted the pool configuration inside
Schedules. Like this:
Schedule {
Name = ScheduleDefault
Run = Level=Full Pool=segunda-vol mon at 01:00
Run = Level=Differential Pool=terca-vol tue at 01:00
Run = Level=Differential Pool=quarta-vol wed at 01:00
Run = Level=Differential Pool=quinta-vol thu at 01:00
Run = Level=Differential Pool=sexta-vol fri at 01:00
}
I tough Bacula would catches the pool configuration from here.
What can I do?

BTW, you can move your current tapes to the new pools (one by one) using
update volume
then choose Pool
then select the current pool.
then enter the id either by tape name or metaid. Proceed this with a *
if you type the metaid.
Then you are prompted for the new pool.

[Bacula-users] Best backup strategy to use the minimum size
Hi people:
I'm trying to find the best combination of Full, Differential and
Incremental backups to save disk space, I'd like someone can help me
with some ideas:
Our policy says that we must keep user data of last 3 months, so
according to that I planned to do something like this:
Client {
...
...
File Retention = 90 days
Job Retention = 90 days
}
Pool {
Name = Default
Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
Autoprune = yes
Label Format = Vol-
Volume Use Duration = 10 days
Volume Retention = 90 days
}
Schedule {
Name = Daily
Run Level=Incremental Pool=Default
}
As you see I only run Incremental backups letting Bacula autodetect
the first as a Full Backup. So after 90 days I would have a Full
Backup and 89 Incremental Backups (or so), but past ten days my first
Volume (the one that includes my first and unique Full Backup) would
be marked as Purged and consequently Recycled. So I would lose the
posibility to restore my hole data within those 90 days because with
many incremental but no full backup I can't do anything, right?
If I pretend not to lose my Full Backups every time a Volume gets
recycled I think should be necessary to run a Full Backup every ten
days, right? But I think that doing so would consume too much disk
space, or not?
- Is this the best way (space economically) to keep 90 days of recoverable data?
- Do I need to use different Pools for Incremental and Full Backups?
- What are your best backup strategies to keep data available to be restored?
Please consider that I'm using File disk Backups. I hope someone can
point me to better ideas than mine
Thanks

Here's one possibility:
Pool {
Name = Full
...
Volume Use Duration = 23 hours
Volume Retention = 89 days
}
Pool {
Name = Differential
...
Volume Use Duration = 23 hours
Volume Retention = 89 days
}
Pool {
Name = Incremental
...
Volume Use Duration = 23 hours
Volume Retention = 90 days
}
Do a Differential once every 90 days and Incrementals the rest of the time.
In theory, you only need to run one Full backup. Ever. In practice, you'll
probably want to create a new Full backup every year or so to clear out the
obsolete data and make your differentials smaller (and faster).
Another way to do it that uses even less disk space would be to eliminate
the differentials completely and just create a new Full backup every 90
days.
