Re: [Bacula-users] Client changes host name
Hello,
2013/8/6 vishal veerkar vishalveer...@gmail.com
Below is my console config. Or can you share your running one.
Console {
Name = restricted-wintest
Password = PASSWORD
JobACL = Job_Restore_wintest, Job_Backup_wintest
ClientACL = wintest
This is a client, so a console has to have the same name - this is my
experience.
This is still giving me error Unauthorized command from this console.
IMVHO, it is because console name and client name doesn't match.
best regards

Hello, 2013/9/5 deepak@wipro.com Please send some command to test IBM tape backup manually before configuring bacula with it. ** ** I want to : ** ** **1. **transfer some data to ibm tape library disk drives ** I do not know what ibm tape disk dirives are, so could you send some info about it, please? 2. **see it there on disk drive **3. **restore data from disk drives to local / some other place ** ** please share some commands…! ** If this is a tape drive you should have a tape drive device on your Linux (right?) OS. So you can use a 'tar' command ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tar_(computing)) for archive or restore some files on tape.

[Bacula-users] Wake-on-LAN and bacula
My bacula installation supports night-time backups of several Windows machines (win7 and xp) that are typically suspended when the backups start from a Linux-based server. I made sure to enable Wake-on-LAN on all of the windows clients, and arranged a script to wake them, but Windows often believes that the machine is idle during a backup and the machines used to go down during a backup. I updated my python script to run a daemon process for each machine to keep them awake during backup, it is relatively short so I'm including it here, on the off-chance that it proves helpful to anyone--I'm happy to answer any questions about it. It is dependent on a library daemon.py (note: not the pending daemon PEP), that I downloaded here: http://www.jejik.com/articles/2007/02/a_simple_unix_linux_daemon_in_python, but I believe this github implementation would also probably work: https://github.com/stackd/daemon-py Note that the script does require your host-MAC address mapping, since the machines may be down, you can't just ARP for them (I use a python dictionary, but this could be extended to a db for those with larger sites--especially if you already track MAC addresses). To make a Windows machine do WoL, you likely will have to both configure WoL in the BIOS and also make a config change in windows on the LAN interface to enable WoL. Here's how I use my script in my bacula-dir.conf: RunBeforeJob = /etc/bacula/wake_up.py --daemon start %c RunAfterJob = /etc/bacula/wake_up.py --daemon stop %c I don't recall if this assumes that the hostname and the client name are the same, I suspect it does. -se -- They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. --Benjamin Franklin, 1759 wake_up.py Description: Binary data -- Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!

[Bacula-users] adding re-used tapes previously used on different tape drive
Thanks Patti, first, planning to relocate the tape in the import/export slot... not sure why i did not notice that..too occupied with the rest i guess..thanks for the HU! so the labels were created on a completely separate bacula installation so the labels are not in thie catalog on this machine... and no the labels were not removed previously. i was hoping that bacula might take care of that for me, but alas, no. i found a procedure to remove the labels via mtx-changer and did that for each of the slots needed. then issued the label barcode via bconsole and that seemed to work like a charm. This morning it looks like almost all the new tapes are showing...on missing is currently in the import/export slot and i plan on moving that this AM. +-- |This was sent by matt.arg...@currensee.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +-- -- Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
