Thanks! It also works if I replace regexdir with wilddir (and remove the ^ and $). I actually tried something like that, since this is what you described verbally, but I must have missed something, because it didn't seem to work then. Too tired...

Re: [Bacula-users] Autochanger problem
I realize now you have mostly done all that. If this is a Dell or IBM unit there should be an adminstrative program as descibed below which will let you move tapes to the I/O slot to remove them. Also, there may be a WEB server built in as on the Dell and IBM that will let you administer the library through a browser to move tapes to the I/O slot to remove them individually. After removing tapes so that the library is not over full then you can run "update slots" and/or "read barcodes" The ITDT program is java based and if you are running a RedHat based distro like Fedora then you will need to install a different JRE as described in the documentation with the ITDT program.

Re: [Bacula-users] Questions on Copy Jobs
The copy job copies all uncopied jobs one job at a time, one job at a time. If you need to limit this, you need to use your own sql command. I pulled the SQL statement from the source that does the selection for the uncopied jobs, and modified it with a date range, and run this to do uncopied jobs in batches when the need arises. Watch for typos SELECT DISTINCTJob.JobId FROM Job,Pool WHERE Pool.Name = 'MyPoolName' AND Pool.PoolId = Job.PoolId AND Job.Type = 'B' AND Job.JobStatus IN ('T','W') AND Job.jobBytes > 0 AND (Job.StartTime > '2009-09-01 00:00:00' AND Job.StartTime < '2009-10-27 00:00:00') AND Job.JobId NOT IN (SELECT PriorJobId FROM Job WHERE Type IN ('B','C') AND Job.JobStatus IN ('T','W') AND PrioJobId != 0) ORDER by Job.StartTime; Mingus Dew wrote: > In the documentation, there is an example for a Copy Job using the > Selection Type "PoolUncopiedJobs".

Re: [Bacula-users] Autochanger problem
I am making an assumption that this is the Dell backup library or actually IBM who manufactured the dell product There is a program itdt-dcr or as shown as the title to my icon ITDT - DELL Customer Release. I think I found this on the dell site and it is a desktop program for controlling and administrating the backup library on a linux server. There may be a Windows version I use it on the Dell TL2000. Your customer might find this easier than the little LED on the tape library. Also, helpful commands Find the tape changer: my system automatically set a changer link to the device. @localhost bacula]# dir /dev | grep sg 3341 drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 240 2009-07-02 17:58 bsg/ 4313 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 2009-07-02 17:58 changer -> sg4 4316 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 3 2009-07-02 17:58 changer-sg4 -> sg4 556 crw-rw. 1 root root 1, 11 2009-07-02 17:58 kmsg 620 crw-rw+ 1 root cdrom21, 0 2009-07-02 17:58 sg0 3619 crw-rw. 1 root disk 21, 1 2009-07-02 17:58 sg1 3695 crw-rw. 1 root disk 21, 2 2009-07-02 17:58 sg2 4560 crw-rw. 1 root tape 21, 3 2009-07-02 17:58 sg3 4306 crw-rw. 1 root tape 21, 4 2009-07-02 17:58 sg4 See what is in the changer, if you do not find which sg to use start with sg0 through the sgx where x is the highest number shown.

And about the random mode, is this also > something you have to do physically? I only have access to the linux box by Probably - you will need to check the manual for that particular autochanger. It will probably be done from the front panel. The same goes for random vs. stacker mode, the panel again. "Random" mode means the backup server is expected to control which slot is loaded next. "Stacker" mode means the autochanger will always load a tape from the next slot in sequence whenever a tape is ejected from the drive. If the autochanger has worked with Bacula in the past, though, it will probably be in random mode, anyway (I was just checking). Allan -- Come build with us!

[Bacula-users] Questions on Copy Jobs
In the documentation, there is an example for a Copy Job using the Selection Type "PoolUncopiedJobs". I'd like to implement Copy Jobs using this selection type. I currently have about 30 clients backed up into the same Disk Pool. There are 28 days of backups on Disk for each client. If I setup a Copy Job like the one below, will it Copy all the previous Jobs in that Pool in one run? Is there a way to limit this? If I use a SQLquery selection to Copy the previous 14 days, will the next Copy using PoolUncopiedJobs only copy the Jobs since then, or will it go back beyond as well? For Pools like mine that contains many Jobs, will there only be 1 Copy Job Id or does it create and ID for each Job being copied? # # Default template for a CopyDiskToTape Job # JobDefs { Name = CopyDiskToTape Type = Copy Messages = StandardCopy Client = None FileSet = None Selection Type = PoolUncopiedJobs Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10 SpoolData = No Allow Duplicate Jobs = Yes Allow Higher Duplicates = No Cancel Queued Duplicates = No Cancel Running Duplicates = No Priority = 13 } Schedule { Name = DaySchedule7:00 Run = Level=Full daily at 7:00 } Job { Name = CopyDiskToTapeFullBackups Enabled = Yes Schedule = DaySchedule7:00 Pool = FullBackupsVirtualPool JobDefs = CopyDiskToTape } Thanks, Shon -- Come build with us!

[Bacula-users] copy and then migrate job
Hello, I'm trying to automatically copy some jobs from one tape to another (to be taken offline) and because I don't have two tape drives, I have to use a temporary pool. However I have noticed that all the jobs that are copied to the temporary pool are marked with type 'M' and then the migration process refuses to take them into account. Is there a way to avoid this change of type for the copy jobs or to force the migration to take them into account? thx nicolae -- Come build with us!

Ok, I'll call and make them reset it. I take it this is something you have to do physically to the box? And about the random mode, is this also something you have to do physically?

[Bacula-users] Maximum Volume Jobs and concurrency
I think I would like to change my disk pool to have a Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 so that there is only one job per file. My thought is that it would lead to more efficient recycling. I believe if I do this then this will not allow job concurrency. Is there a way to do have one job per file, and concurrency? -- Come build with us!

Re: [Bacula-users] Autochanger problem

Because tape drives and autochangers are largely passive, sometimes you don't get an error until the next time you do something, so that might be an indication of a previous error. However, if you keep getting the error, you might need to reset the autochanger. Also check that the autochanger is in "random" mode, and not "stacker" mode. I would use the front panel to move the tape from the drive to the free slot. If the autochanger has a network connection, you may be able to use a web-based admin interface to do this. Then I'd be tempted to reset the autochanger anyway, since it seems to have forgotten which slot the tape in the drive was loaded from. Then continue with the inventory. Allan -- Come build with us!

Re: [Bacula-users] vchanger configuration question
You don't have 'Autochanger = yes' in the device records for d1, d2, and d3. That howto (and script) are outdated and need to be edited. The vchanger project page is at http://sourceforge.net/projects/vchanger/, and there is a much more recent howto there.

Re: [Bacula-users] Autochanger problem
Thank you Allan So I talked to the people who are hosting today, and they had indeed done a mistake replacing the tapes. It was now completely full. I asked them to remove one (the 24 slot, VolumeTag=ARS655L3) and he did. Now, I was going to follow your procedure, and started with a status to see if everything looked ok.

[Bacula-users] Bacula and Suse
Hi everybody: We have a Suse Enterprise Server 10 SP 2 (SLES10SP2) that include glibc 2.4 (glibc-2.4-31.54). I see that bacula 2.4 requiere glibc 2.5 and bacula 3.0.2 requiere glibc 2.6. Is there a way for bacula works on SLES10SP2? May be a "trick" with statics libraries? I am frustrate. This software it's really great but glibc it's very important piece of linux system and as i see new bacula version requiere new linux operating system version. Please say that's not true :(.
