[Bacula-users] Failing to connect to storage device - still the nkotb
Eyes are close to bleeding from all the reading, sites, etc. but still no
luck (darn close though). There are so many doc's even the main one is
really not very helpful in just getting things installed, but anyone feel
free to help someone before blindness takes over! I am close and rather
than just 'getting it working', I am also trying to understand so I can go
from backing up a local directory, to adding SD device, other servers, etc.
I have read a LOT these past few days and now I have the following. CentOS
5.5 server running, built from epel repo and yum. I have webmin installed
and the bacula module (trying to make it easier) and all 3 services
(director, sd and fd on the same box) and want to test with a local backup
of a folder. The webmin mod has a nice simple home of director, client and
file-storage status, file I select 'show status' I get the following;
Director status shows the test backups with fail.
Client status shows the local 127.0.0.1 I have setup 1st, clicking test now
I get;
Status from servername : bacula-fd Version: 2.0.3 (06 March 2007)
i686-redhat-linux-gnu redhat Enterprise releaseRunning Backup Jobs
*No backup jobs are currently running.*
*
*
Last is the storage. When I select that, I get the following;
*Failed to fetch status from File : Failed to connect to Storage daemon
File.*
So I am wondering where the problem is. As you see, I don't have a tape,
but trying to backup to a local storage area /data. I verified the correct
director-password with the one used in bacula-fd and their exact. The
/etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf file has the following;
Storage { # definition of myself
Name = bacula-sd
SDport = 9103
WorkingDirectory = /var/spool/bacula
Pid Directory = "/var/run"
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
}
Director {
Name = bacula-dir
Password = "pass-here"
}
Device {
Name = FileStorage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /data
LabelMedia = yes
Random Access = yes
AutomaticMount = yes
RemovableMedia = no
AlwaysOpen = no
}
I tried reading as much as I could, but things are working, a backup does
start, but fails when it tries to attach to the storage device, and I am
sure it's something simple or something the examples and such I had didn't
include as a lot were for tape drives.
Thanks for the time of reading and helping out ...

It seems that enabling it basically kills your ability to prioritize jobs, since only jobs of the same priority run at the same time (and the mixed priority option only minimally changes that). So if there are X concurrent jobs, and X currently running jobs, it's not possible to queue up another ten jobs and have them consume the available backup slots in a specific order based on priority. They will presumably run in the order they are started, which means the scheduler has to take over as the priority manager. So simply having the catalog backup be a different priority ensures that no other job can run at the same time, provided mixed priorities are disallowed (that would allow the higher-priority backup jobs to start while the catalog backup is under way). Which is just as well, since I don't like the idea of relying on database or table locks. -- Gaining the trust of online customers is vital for the success of any company that requires sensitive data to be transmitted over the Web.

If you set the Catalog job to a lesser priority (say, 15, where the highest priority is 1, and most normal jobs are priority 10), you guarantee that the Catalog job will not be started while any higher-priority job is running. Guaranteeing that no higher-priority job can start while the Catalog job is running is a more difficult problem, but one that usually isn't an issue unless you typically have jobs running around the clock and being started at varying intervals.

My question is how to create a schedule, in an environment with multiple concurrent jobs, that guarantees that the catalog backup runs after all other scheduled jobs, and by itself. So if I have three machines currently running a backup job simultaneously, the catalog backup has to wait until they finish, even if the maximum number of concurrent jobs is four.

Schedule-level Pool overrides have been deprecated because they could
not be made to work reliably in all cases. There were just too many
cases in which it would do the wrong thing (for instance, when promoting
jobs). You should be using the Full Pool, Differential Pool,
Incremental Pool directives in your Job or JobDefs resources.
This won't affect the problem you're seeing, though.

[Bacula-users] compiling static
Hi all, I've been trying to make this work for the last two days.. I have a Thus NAS system which is running linux (sort of). I would like to compile bacula-sd and vchanger static so that I can push those two binaries on to it and make it into a dedicated Virtual Tape store. I'm using a Centos 5 (latest updated with yum). I've downloaded bacula-5.0.3 and then issuing this command ./configure --without-openssl --disable-build-dird --enable-static-fd --enable-static-sd --disable-libtool --with-sqlite3 The configure seems to run just fine.. so I move on to "make", this works away for a time and then errors with this: Linking bacula-sd ... /usr/bin/g++ -L../lib -o bacula-sd stored.o ansi_label.o vtape.o autochanger.o acquire.o append.o askdir.o authenticate.o block.o butil.o dev.o device.o dircmd.o dvd.o ebcdic.o fd_cmds.o job.o label.o lock.o mac.o match_bsr.o mount.o parse_bsr.o pythonsd.o read.o read_record.o record.o reserve.o scan.o sd_plugins.o spool.o status.o stored_conf.o vol_mgr.o wait.o -lacl \ -lbacpy -lbaccfg -lbac -lm -lpthread -ldl \ -lcap ../lib/libbac.a(bsys.o): In function `Zinflate(char*, int, char*, int&)': /home/guy/Downloads/bacula-5.0.3/src/lib/bsys.c:735: undefined reference to `inflateInit_' /home/guy/Downloads/bacula-5.0.3/src/lib/bsys.c:748: undefined reference to `inflateEnd' /home/guy/Downloads/bacula-5.0.3/src/lib/bsys.c:745: undefined reference to `inflate' ../lib/libbac.a(bsys.o): In function `Zdeflate(char*, int, char*, int&)': /home/guy/Downloads/bacula-5.0.3/src/lib/bsys.c:696: undefined reference to `deflateInit_' /home/guy/Downloads/bacula-5.0.3/src/lib/bsys.c:711: undefined reference to `deflateEnd' /home/guy/Downloads/bacula-5.0.3/src/lib/bsys.c:708: undefined reference to `deflate' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [bacula-sd] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/guy/Downloads/bacula-5.0.3/src/stored' == Error in /home/guy/Downloads/bacula-5.0.3/src/stored == Does anyone have any insight into how I can compile bacula-sd and vchanger so I can get them running on my Thus NAS5200Pro.

[Bacula-users] Restore single Job from two different Storages
Hello List I've been trying to get help from the Bacula IRC Channel, but no success. I have two tape Storages, TPA and TPB. For all my Clients, I run a Full Backup which saves the data on TPA, and every subsequent Differential backup uses the TPB tapes. My problem is when making a Full restore from a Differential backup (i.e., Bacula will join the Differential and Full backup to restore the most updated version of the backup). The Restore Job starts OK getting the tapes from TPB, but when it goes for the tapes of the Full Backup on TPA, it stops with a "wrong volume mounted" error. That's because Bacula tries to get a TPA Volume on the TPB Storage, seems like Bacula doesn't know, at Restore time, that the tapes of the Full Backup are on another Storage. I've "worked around it" by restoring only the Full Backup first and then the subsequent Differential Backups later, on top of the Full Restore, but I don't know if this is the best solution.

Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring to a folder?
Housigma34-fd is a Windows server so there is no /srv/staging/restores
In addition to that, the restore job has: "client= housigma25-fd" which is a
debian server and also the localhost.
Also, the available space for both server has not changed so if the restore
happened somewhere, I would notice 13GB less than reported.
Thanks

[Bacula-users] Restoring to a folder?
Hello,
I was trying to do a restore and after I marked all the folder/files I
needed the process started and successfully finished, however, when I go to
the folder which where the files are suppoused to be, they are not. The
folder is empty. The client from where Bacula takes this data has not
changed so I know it didn't restore it to the remote client.
Any ideas?
Here is some info:

I know that it didn't restore it to the remote client because the folder on

restore.
Any ideas?

Indeed it was and that for me is the right thing. It's all in subversion which

I think you will find that the directory containing .svn is also
excluded from backup.

I just sent small test job from my mail server - 15 GB in 1 directory and 5 files. After 30 minutes it has transfered just 2 GBs to spool with average transfer rate at 1.6 MB/s. So slowness is not caused by dealing with lots of files. I'm thinking that maybe CentOS compilation of bacula client is somehow broken.

Hi,
there is a fileset option called "ExcludeDirContaining" (look at the
docs for more info), which basically excludes all directories and their
children that contain a certain file. I don't know if that also works
with directory names, though.
But if it doesn't, you could alway run something like
find / -type d -name .svn -exec touch {}/../.excludeme \;
as "ClientRunBeforeJob".

[Bacula-users] Recommended File set template for windows 2003? - and a Base Job Question
I've just added up the amount of space required by running estimates on
all my windows jobs. I was a touch should when it totaled up to just
over 1TB. Now this is clearly too much data to synchronise offsite, so
I am seriously considering how to reduce the footprint of all my
servers, because seriously, it's pointless to use all my bandwith for
backups.
Now, using a portable HD, would be find, and I surly would not mind a
weekly round trip to the other side of the planet, so long as I flew
with enough leg room, bandwith, and I could take my GF with me, that'll
be great. (so, I'm basically saying, it's not fine to use a portable
drive!).
I'm come to two conclusions, one that I have to tighten up my file sets,
or make use of Base Jobs
Currently my file sets are
FileSet {
Name = CDE-Windows
Include {
File = C:/
File = D:/
File = E:/
Options {
}
}
}
So, I'm aware that I'm umm, over doing it at the moment! Which is why I
looked at base jobs. Now, it would be great to no longer backup the OS,
or have any of the OS files in my backup, but I worry what will happen
when my base job expires, will that not make all the jobs impossible to
restore? Any clues, hints, and tips are most welcome.

You can create a run before job that calls both of these. Beware that the disk used for the recovery might not be the same size as the original.
