[Bacula-users] Distributed Bacula daemons
Hi all, We need to host bacula-dir, bacula-sd and PostgreSQL on different servers, what is an efficient architecture amongst the two options given below: 1. Hosting bacula-dir and PostgreSQL together on one host, bacula-sd on another host 2. Hosting bacula-dir on one host, bacula-sd and PostgreSQL together on another host Thanks, Yateen Bhagat ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
Re: [Bacula-users] bconsole 'stop' command always cancels job instead
Thanks very much Bill--that's good to know. Also, thank you for reminding me there's a Mantis site (I'd completely forgotten)!

Re: [Bacula-users] Why isn't bacula recycling these volumes?
Hello Larry, On 12/8/21 15:08, Larry Rosenman wrote: I have a bunch of volumes that bacula seems to have forgotten about. Can you explain why? Also, what SQL/etc can I do to fix it? Attached are a DB list for the volumes, and the ls -l. Normally the information about the pruning/recycling is printed in the debug trace file, something with setdebug trace=1 level=100 tags=volume,sql dir It should give give you the different traces and SQL commands that are used to list volumes and jobs and prune them. You might look them and check why the records are not properly sent back. (Recycle=No, VolumeRetention=0, incorrect Pool, incorrect status, etc...) Then it depends on your different settings, for example, I have seen that you are using a Volume Retention = 0, that means the recycling algorithm is disabled for your volume, it might explain why you cannot achieve what you want. In recent Bacula versions, the pruning algorithm has bee reviewed to not prune jobs that are necessary to restore to the last restore point. So, you might need to run a Full or a Differential backup to get rid of a chain of Incremental jobs for example. If you don't want to use that feature, the Volume Retention is the last variable that is checked for a volume, set it to 2 hours, and after 2 hours, a Full/Used volume in a Pool A should be recycled when a new job in Pool A requires a volume. Hope it helps! Best Regards, Eric ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
