hi simone,

just a quick question --

i installed your rpms (updating a 5.0.3 mysql based install) and noticed
that the director is failing to start as it is requesting postgresql:

bacula-dir: message.c:482-0 Close_msg jcr=0
bacula-dir: message.c:502-0 ===Begin close msg resource at 10e51a8
bacula-dir: message.c:586-0 Done walking message chain.
bacula-dir: message.c:593-0 ===End close msg resource
bacula-dir: message.c:325-0 Copy message resource 10e8778 to 1112ca8
bacula-dir: priv.c:60-0 uname=NONE gname=NONE
bacula-dir: postgresql.c:1113-0 db_init_database first time

is there a directive to tell bacula to only use mysql?

thanks

 Is the 10G on 24th mostly additional, changed or moved data? Are these
 compressed backups?
Hi Adrian, The 10G was just a new additional client being introduced 
into the Bacula.

 Now that the backups seems to be working I need to figure out how to
 implement an offsite strategy, I want to use a combination of removable
 disks and rsync to do this.
 I think bacula is not the ideal tool for running additional offsite
 backups. And very likely rsync is not a good way if you use bacula.
Oh ok

 I have 3 possibilities in mind:

 1. If you are not talking about windows clients, I'd consider using rsync
 (e.g. via rsnapshot) to run the complete offsite backup unrelated to
 bacula. Run one rsync/rsnapshot job per client and the 'new' client will
 just run longer, independent of the others except the shared bandwidth.
 Via rsnapshot you only need to do 1 full backup per client, changed
 files just lead to new full backupsets, but only the difference needs
 to be transferred. We do that on several locations and wrote a wrapper
 round rsnapshot (which is a wrapper round rsync), debian packages are
 available at
 deb http://ftp.lihas.de/debian stable main
 package rsnapshot-backup.
 If you add some file unification tool, you get away with far less used
 diskspace.
 + only changes need to be transferred
 + initial backup can easily be transferred on external media to save bandwidth
 - no bacula, no bacula indexes
 - no backup of windows clients / anything that doesn't have rsync
We have some Unix servers but the bulk of our servers are Windows.
Our old/current backup strategy is to do full backups nightly and these 
are about 450G Compressed.

If I could I would like to do some type of copy jobs where I copy the 
Incremental files to another place on the server and then get rsync to 
down these files knowing that they were just the incrementals.


 2. Alternatively you can use the normal bacula backup + a copy job.
 As copy jobs only work on same bacula-sd, you could e.g. NFS-mount some
 external server and store the target pools there. The copy full pool is
 to local disks on individual mountpoints. Move the volumes to the remote
 location and replace it with links to remote NFS.
 + works with all clients
 - regularily transporting volumes offsite is required

Only just read about Migration / Copy jobs last night (I am slowly 
getting through the Bacula manual) and will probably try to get one of 
these jobs working later today.  I plan to have one dedicated bacula-fd 
server and have also planned to put the removable disks (Offsite Backup) 
into this server. If I can get Bacula manage my offsite disks and to 
also know whats on these disk will be great.


 3. Run a complete seperate job instance to the remote site using a
 bacula-sd installed there. Use virtual full backups to create the fulls
 from the full/diff/inc backups. Initially a full backup has to pass the
 remote connection.
 + works with all clients
 0 initial full might be expensive in bandwidth

 Currently I use 1. and 2. myself. With 3. I ran into trouble selecting
 the correct pools in my environment and virtual full in general
 including a tape changer with a single drive.
There are network / firewall issue outwith my control that would make remote 
Bacula backups an issue.


 If I add a new server to be backed up to Bacula midweek it does a full
 backup in the INC pool. This might be a big backup and screw-up my Rsync
 job.
 Does this seem like a good idea and goes anyone know how keep Full
 backups out of the INC or DIFF pool
 Just do a manual initial full backup on the new client. As I assume they
 don't appear magically in your backup setup.

 Regards,
   Adrian

Your right, they shouldn't just be appearing but they are while I play 
with Bacula :)  But in the future when adding new clients in then it 
makes sense to manually kick off a full backup.


Adrian, thanks for the detailed answers. I give the copy jobs a try and 
see how I get on.

Cheers
Keith.

Hello,

the same question/answer were exactly in the mail before, please read the
README.Fedora file in bacula-common.
There are notes regarding this matter and a quick installation guide.

Remember to update the database as well as in 5.2.3 it is different.

Hi Folks,

It is a HP model 1x8 G2 AutoLDR.

All tapes are LTO4 with their labels in place.

The tapes are in place and the system setup is OK.
Although, when we try the command label barcode, in bconsole, the
robot put the tapes, one-by-one,
into the drive, but the process is not concluded, locking bconsole.

[Bacula-users] Is Bacula volumes capable to handle up to 400GB of data

2012-01-05 Thread Rushdhi Mohamed
hi.. all

Every day, I have more than 375GB to backup.

for the movement i do the backups by breaking then into different volumes.
( one volume might have maximum of 150GB of data)

below is list volumes out put that you can see..

Now what i am going to do is write all the backups for a day into one
single volume so there is going to be 7 volumes and one single volume going
to have up to 400GB of data.

Is Bacula volumes capable to handle that much of data. or is it good to
have small volumes like 150GB

Is it ok to have up to 400GB in a bacula volume... on a file storage
device..

will it be a problem when restoring the backups..???

Re: [Bacula-users] Disk backup strategy advice / help

2012-01-05 Thread Alex Ehrlich
Hello,

I have managed my offsite backup setup so that only bacula volumes get 
rsync-ed and it works fine for half a year. Total backup size is about 
500Gb, nightly amount of data rsync-ed is between 1 and 10Gb (so my home 
adsl connection with 10Mbit/s downstream is OK to keep offsite backups 
at home).
This is in an assumption that you need offsite backup only when you've 
totally lost onsite one. In this case bacula server has to be 
restored/reinstalled first (or better in advance, to be able to test 
restoration) and database has to be restored before using offsite backup.
Additionally I encrypt the bacula volumes on the fly while remotely 
rsync-ing them (on the fly by means of fuse encfs).

Regards,

Alex Ehrlich

Yes. I have some tapes (LTO2) at work with over 1 TB of data on them
however most of my 100+ tapes average around 300 GB of data since I
get about 1.5:1 compression on average depending on the job and client
since compression (hw in this case) varies depending on the fileset.

 500GB within a year) in a single volume on a file storage device.. if it is
 possible i am going to store all the backups for a day in a single volume.

 if not i can break it and store.. in this case i am going to store the
 backups for a day in to 3 volumes. each around 150GB

 can you pls tel me what is efficient.. sorry if my English is not clear


 For file based volumes I recommend much smaller volumes. However
 bacula will handle 400GB disk volumes.

if i copy the Bacula volumes to tape after all the backups are done
... i mean copy the path "/opt/NASBackup" to tape.. is it make any
sense?

Well, if you also *consistantly* backups
  your catalogs... It can make sense. But if you consider it does,
  maybe you should also backup the backups of your volumes too ;).
Note that raw volume (without catalog) can be used to
  re-create catalogs entries but this a time consumming process,
  that make your backups less (quickly) usable.
  


  

Is it possible to restore if i do like that...

As I said aboce, not directly, you need to first recover the
  catalog.


  And what if i run a job that backups this folder path (means backups
the whole  NAS) to tape ..  in this case all these Bacula volumes
going to be stored inside another large Bacula volume in tape.. is
that make any sense.. Is it possible to restore in this case..??

I think this is a generally a bad idea, unless you use it in
  disaster situation only.
  


  pls can anyone help me?

Re: [Bacula-users] how to recover in case a Bacula volume corrupted

2012-01-05 Thread Alexandre Chapellon

  
  
In case of hardware (tape or disk) failure... Don't
  really know how to recover from such situation.
For tapes, bacula should instruct you when a tape should be
  changed... I don't know how bacula decides a tape has to be
  changed however.
