[Bacula-users] Perl 5.20 upgrade breaks make_catalog_backup.pl?
Recently FreeBSD announced that its default Perl version is now 5.20 and urged all users to upgrade to that version. I did so. Now make_catalog_backup.pl doesn't run. The first indication was as follows: 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: shell command: run BeforeJob /usr/local/share/bacula/make_catalog_backup1.pl MyCatalog 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: BeforeJob: Statement unlikely to be reached at /usr/local/share/bacula/make_catalog_backup1.pl line 40. 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: BeforeJob: (Maybe you meant system() when you said exec()?) 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: BeforeJob: Statement unlikely to be reached at /usr/local/share/bacula/make_catalog_backup1.pl line 67. 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: BeforeJob: (Maybe you meant system() when you said exec()?) 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: BeforeJob: Statement unlikely to be reached at /usr/local/share/bacula/make_catalog_backup1.pl line 97. 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: BeforeJob: (Maybe you meant system() when you said exec()?) 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: BeforeJob: cannot create /backup/bacula.sql: Permission denied 30-May 09:05 pisces-dir JobId 15770: Error: Runscript: BeforeJob returned non-zero status=2.

Hello Marc, Could you post a list media output? Bacula will just recycle a volume when there is no one available for append and it is not possible to create a new one (and you have automatic labeling configured).

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula not recycling all volumes
Hi Ana, Does this mean that Bacula prefers to create new volumes over recycling old ones? Here's the output, Vol-0001 for example isn't used by any backup jobs looking at the bacula database, as are 15 others: *list media Pool: File +-++---+-++--+--+-+--+---+---+-+ | MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes | VolFiles | VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten | +-++---+-++--+--+-+--+---+---+-+ | 72 | Vol-0001 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,572 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 16:34:38 | | 73 | Vol-0073 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,571 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 23:48:02 | | 74 | Vol-0074 | Full | 1 | 53,687,051,357 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-22 01:09:10 | | 83 | Vol-0083 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,336 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-29 02:07:13 | | 84 | Vol-0084 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,650 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-29 04:02:07 | | 85 | Vol-0085 | Full | 1 | 53,687,038,466 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-30 00:20:19 | | 86 | Vol-0086 | Full | 1 | 53,687,072,062 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-31 00:43:51 | | 87 | Vol-0087 | Full | 1 | 53,687,078,955 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-31 03:31:16 | | 88 | Vol-0088 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,760 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-31 05:46:51 | | 89 | Vol-0089 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,537 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-31 07:12:04 | | 99 | Vol-0099 | Full | 1 | 53,687,035,899 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-14 00:56:20 | | 100 | Vol-0100 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,400 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-31 08:30:19 | | 101 | Vol-0101 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,499 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-31 09:50:03 | | 102 | Vol-0102 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,535 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-31 11:24:41 | | 103 | Vol-0103 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,562 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-31 13:12:54 | | 106 | Vol-0104 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,466 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-10 19:35:51 | | 107 | Vol-0107 | Full | 1 | 53,687,061,994 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 00:28:01 | | 108 | Vol-0108 | Full | 1 | 53,687,033,748 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 03:09:56 | | 109 | Vol-0109 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,058 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 06:36:13 | | 110 | Vol-0110 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,593 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 07:44:40 | | 111 | Vol-0111 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,599 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 08:53:21 | | 112 | Vol-0112 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,515 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 10:07:45 | | 113 | Vol-0113 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,470 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 11:35:35 | | 114 | Vol-0114 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,758 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 13:34:05 | | 115 | Vol-0115 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,672 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-17 15:03:29 | | 116 | Vol-0116 | Full | 1 | 53,687,028,512 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-19 00:32:57 | | 117 | Vol-0117 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,451 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 | 0 | Disk | 2015-05-24 16:16:57 | | 118 | Vol-0118 | Full | 1 | 53,687,079,355 | 12 |1,209,600 | 1 |0 |

If the ArchiveDevice in the two Device resources specifies different directories (mountpoints), then the two Device resources cannot have the same MediaType. This is because Bacula expects to be able to load any volume that has MediaType=File into any Device having that same MediaType, and a volume in /sdb1/bacula/backup cannot be loaded into Device vDrive-1, not can a volume in /bacula/backup be loaded into vDrive-2. To use multiple HDDs as a single autochanger, you must: Define each Device resource to have a unique MediaType, if using the native virtual autochanger or Use vchanger, which is designed for using multiple removable HDDs (See http://sourceforge.net/projects/vchanger/) or Combine the HDD partitions using LVM2 or md so that there is only a single mountpoint . bacula-sd.conf: Autochanger { Name = VChanger Changer Device = /dev/null Changer Command = # versão 5.2.6.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula not recycling all volumes
Chances are that one or more jobs on those full volumes has a long retention time, causing them to not be recycled. If only one job is configured with the wrong retention time, then only the volumes that job's data gets written to ceases to recycle, making it appear to be random volumes.

Re: [Bacula-users] Windows client backup error
Few windows client backup successfully with same fileset. So I don’t think wrong in fileset. Hello Ankush: can you output a estimate listing for this job? Do this volumes really exist at this Windows Server? If your FileSet is right it maybe indicate a VSS Windows service problem. You can try to restart it or make verifications like it's correctness on Windows Register files. Your Windows Bacula client architeture should maches OS one. A thing to consider is if this Home ServerEnterprise Edition Service VSS really exists and if its limited in comparison to other Windows Server distributions. Anyway you can also disable Bacula VSS usage at the FileSet, for contingency purposes.

[Bacula-users] Bacula not recycling all volumes
Hello, We seem to be having an issue with our Bacula enviroment where some volumes are not being recycled properly. This is causing our disk based storage to fill up with unused volume files. Some volumes are being recycled though which is why I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this issue. I'm using the following SQL query in the bacula database to check which Volumes are in use: select DISTINCT(Media.VolumeName) AS VolumeName FROM JobMedia, Media WHERE JobMedia.MediaID=Media.MediaID ORDER BY VolumeName; If i compare the resultst to the volume files on the filesystem, I can see that there are currently 16 volume files not in use at the moment. Does anyone have any idea as to why these aren't being recycled? I've attached my bacula-dir.conf. Many thanks in advance.

Re: [Bacula-users] Use multiple HDDs to backup files to
Do you have some specific reason to need to have these two volumes separate? You might be best off using LVM to create a single logical drive. That would certainly be a more flexible solution long term. Bryn On 2015-05-20 09:32 AM, SPQR wrote: I would like to set up bacula - well, my first steps have been successful.

Do I have to change something else so that bacula is able to write more than 900GB - if the first 900GB are full it should switch to the second hdd.

Re: [Bacula-users] Use multiple HDDs to backup files to
I particularly do not like the idea of having separate volumes of the same media type into two different mount points, but I know people that are configuring this way. So I decided to do some tests and see what really was happening. No issues. Instead I prefer the LVM solution.

So I decided to do some tests and see what really was happening. No issues. Instead I prefer the LVM solution. The point is to make sure severall disks are being write at the same time (load balance) and more resiliency since a dead LVM is a terrible situation. But I kind of agree with you: I don't know why to use different Media Types for compatible media.
