It sounds like you are not excluding things you should exclude. An
incremental backup of an unused system should not be several GB/day.
Something like this should help (but remember that changing the
include/exclude will cause the next backup to be promoted to a full
backup):
Options {
# Windows is case-preserving, NOT case-sensitive
Ignore Case = yes
Exclude = yes
# general Windows stuff
wilddir = "c:/Windows/$NtServicePackUninstall$"
wilddir = "c:/Windows/$NtUninstall*"
wilddir = "c:/Windows/Installer/$PatchCache$"
wilddir = "c:/Windows/ServicePackFiles"
wilddir = "c:/Windows/SoftwareDistribution/Download"
wilddir = "c:/Windows/Temp"
# per drive
wilddir = "[a-z]:/$Recycle.Bin"
wilddir = "[a-z]:/RECYCLER"
wilddir = "[a-z]:/System Volume Information"
wilddir = "[a-z]:/pagefile.sys"
}
The biggest things that will hit incremental backups of unused systems
are the last two in the list. The "System Volume Information" directory
is where VSS information is stored, so it can be large during the
backup. Also, any activity (such as running ntbackup) can cause changes
in pagefile.sys, which will cause the whole file to be included in the
backup (and it can also be big).
Now, I have a question of my own related to this: ntbackup is gone in
newer versions of Windows. What are people using to do the equivalent
of "ntbackup backup systemstate" there?

[Bacula-users] Windows client backup: VSS and/or ntbackup?
Dear bacula users, we use bacula for some years now, excellent tool! But there is one open question I was not able to answer 'til today: Doing windows (XP)-client backups I need the possibility to do a disaster recovery. My solution (tested successfully) is 1.) Do "ntbackup backup systemstate /F c:\systemstate.bkf" using ClientRunBeforeJob 2.) Do a bacula backup using VSS including c:\systemstate.bkf Disaster recovery then is 1.) Install a minimal windows client 2.) restore c: using bacula (includes systemstate.bkf) 3.) restore systemstate using ntbackup on the client 4.) reboot This works but has two ceveats: ntbackup runs several minutes even on an unused system and the resulting backup is severeal gb every day. So I wonder if VSS won't fit my needs _without_ doing a ntbackup systemstate with clientRunBeforeJob? Will a VSS backup of partition C: save all system relevant information (registry etc.) for disaster recovery? -- Kind regards Christoph _ Christoph Litauer Uni Koblenz, Computing Centre, Office A 022 Postfach 201602, 56016 Koblenz Fon: +49 261 287-1311, Fax: -100 1311 -- Everyone hates slow websites.

This will take a long time on large archives. In the case where you have a barcode reader and all of your tapes have barcode labels update slots takes no time at all. Although the archive itself will take some time (but much less than loading each tape) cataloging the tapes. Then to label your tapes in bacula you do not use the label command you would instead issue the label barcodes command and I recommend you put the tapes in the Scratch pool.

It sounds like you accidently added it to the wrong pool or the wrong catalog (if you have more than one) when you labelled it the first time, or you deleted it from the pool after labelling it. The label command will refuse to label any tapes that still have a label on them. If you are sure the tape is REALLY not references anywhere in the catalog, you can first delete the label using: mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind mt -f /dev/nst0 weof Then use the "label" command to re-label the tape and automatically add the media to the catalogue. Make sure you loaded the correct tape from the magazine before doing this. Best regards, Sven -- Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.

[Bacula-users] Bacula + arbitrary backup on tape
Hi, I'm new on this list. We are using bacula on our cluster with an Overland Tape library with autochanger. Bacula is configured to do some backups every weeks. It works without problem. The tape library has "mailslots". I want to use these mailslots to do some extra arbitrary backups. In order to do that I have a special pool "scratch". I have labeled a tape "FSI-LES" in the mailslot1 (slot=46) and I backuped some files on it. Then I remove this tape. Now I want to do other arbitrary backups. I put 3 new blanks tapes and I label them in the "scratch" pool: mailslot1 (Slot=46) : name of the new volume: FSI-PfS-1a_1__1 mailslot2 (Slot=47) : name of the new volume: FSI-PfS-1a_1__2 mailslot3 (Slot=48) : name of the new volume: FSI-PfS-1a_1__3 the problem is in bconsole a "list media" always gives the old "FSI-LES" in the slot 46. And of course it generates some errors, when I want to use it to bakcup. How can I solve this problem ? How can I do some arbitrary backup on tape ? and then remove the tapes and add others one...

I do it like this:
In bacula-dir.conf define a new Message ressource using a different e-mail
address:
Messages {
Name = "Message for 2 Jobs"
mailcommand = "/usr/sbin/bsmtp -h localhost -f \"Bacula
\\" -s \"Bacula: %t %e of %c %l\" %r"
mail = mailaddress.for.2.j...@yourdomain.de = all, !skipped
console = all, !skipped, !saved
append = "/var/log/bacula" = all, !skipped
}
Then use this new ressource in the job ressources of your two jobs:
Job {
...
Messages = "Messages for 2 Jobs"
...
}
