No, I admit I didn't because I only expected to do it once and didn't
figure many other people were going to need to.

I think there were only about three changes.

Re: [Bacula-users] HW crypto offload

The quickest way to find out is to configure a backup without crypto and see 
how long it takes. You could also do another test with GZIP compression on/off.

So you did not make an update script (from 13 to 14) in the process?
Just checking before I spend time creating this myself. I tried to
update to 5.2.1 on my test box (home network - not work) but got
greeted with the incompatible schema and the update script would not
work since I have schema 13 not 12.

Ben,

CPU is:

model name  : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU   E5540  @ 2.53GHz

We run 4 backup threads and get 4 cores doing 100% each, still we're 
only getting the 80 Megabits.

Here's the part of the bacula-fd.conf that is relevant:

FileDaemon {
 Name = backup-fd
 FDport = 9102
 WorkingDirectory = /var/lib/bacula
 Pid Directory = /var/run
 Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
 FDAddress = 127.0.0.1

 PKI Signatures = Yes
 PKI Encryption = Yes
 PKI Keypair = "/etc/bacula/keys/bacula-fd.pem"
 PKI Master Key = "/etc/bacula/keys/master.cert"
}

Here's an example job spec:

Job {
 Name = "ias"
 JobDefs = "Standard"
 Schedule = "With-Basejobs"
 FileSet = "ias"
 Accurate = yes
 Base = "ias-base"
}

Job {
 Name = "ias-base"
 Level = Base
 JobDefs = "Standard"
 FileSet = "ias"
 Schedule = "Update-Basejobs"
 Accurate = yes
}

FileSet {
 Name = "ias"
 Include {
 Options {
 BaseJob  = pmugcs5
 Accurate = mcs5
 Verify   = pin5
 signature = MD5
 compression=GZIP
 }
 File = /nas/ias
 }
 Exclude {
 File = /nas/exclude
 }
}

Storage def from bacula-dir.conf:

Storage {
 Name = Tandberg
 Address = 127.0.0.1
 SDPort = 9103
 Password = "e3Ci8AxSF2ewxzX2VgaU"
 Device = Tandberg
 Autochanger = yes
 Media Type = LTO3
 Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
 AllowCompression = yes
}

Devices in bacula-sd.conf:

Autochanger {
 Name = Tandberg
 Device = IBM0, IBM1
 Changer Device = /dev/sg6
 Changer Command = "/usr/lib64/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
}

Device {
 Name = IBM0
 Drive Index = 0
 Media Type = LTO3
 Archive Device = /dev/st0
 AutomaticMount = yes;
 AlwaysOpen = yes;
 RemovableMedia = yes;
 RandomAccess = no;
 Autochanger = yes;
 Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
 Spool Directory = "/opt/spool/ibm0"
}

Device {
 Name = IBM1
 Drive Index = 1
 Media Type = LTO3
 Archive Device = /dev/st1
 AutomaticMount = yes;
 AlwaysOpen = yes;
 RemovableMedia = yes;
 RandomAccess = no;
 Autochanger = yes;
 Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
 Spool Directory = "/opt/spool/ibm1"
}

Could it be the "compression=GZIP" in the job defs that is slowing 
things down?

I really should get my colleague to join this as he's the one that set 
this up.

Cheers

Alex

> - Ability to Verify any specified Job

Thank You very much for implementing this. I will test as soon as I
can. Many times at work (academic department of ~20 users, ~50
machines and ~50TB of data) I have wanted to verify my jobs but the
previous functionality was not very functional for me especially since
I run concurrent jobs and the last job on a client was almost always
not the one I wanted to verify..

[Bacula-users] Bacula Version 5.2.1 released

2011-10-30 Thread Kern Sibbald
Hello,

Today, we released Bacula version 5.2.1.  If you downloaded version
5.2.0, sorry for the inconvenience, but I *strongly recommend you
download version 5.2.1 to avoid possible problems.

Several people have commented lately that the Bacula project appears
dead, but it is not at all the case. The developers have been working
hard.  Since version 5.0.3, there have been over 299,387 lines of
changes made by 20 developers, making 1,851 commits to the git
repo, and we have closed 88 bug reports (the large part of them
being fixed).

There are also some nice new features -- some of the main
ones are:

- LZO Compression
- New Tray Monitor
- Purge Migration Job
- Changes in Bvfs (Bacula Virtual FileSystem)
- Changes in the Pruning Algorithm
- Ability to Verify any specified Job
- Additions to RunScript variables
- Additions to the Plugin API
- ACL enhancements
- XATTR enhancements
- Class Based Database Backend Drivers
- Hash List Enhancements

Bacula 5.2.1 is now available for download from Source Forge, where you
can also find the ReleaseNotes, or you can read them at the following
link:

http://www.bacula.org/en/?page=news

and the New Features section of the manual is at:

http://www.bacula.org/5.2.x-manuals/en/main/main/New_Features_in_5_2_x.html

Enjoy.

Best regards,
Kern

I'd want to be pretty sure its going to help before doing this. On my
(somewhat aged) development machine, OpenSSL can do AES-128 CBC at 55
MB/s (bytes, not bits), so it doesn;t sound like crypto is necessarily
your bottleneck.

Also, crypto "accelerators" rarely do in my experience.
