Re: [Bacula-users] Frequently Changing Pools For Media

Hi All,

I have a couple of different tape changers that are used to run jobs in
parallel and all share the same media. I've discovered by accident that
if I put all of the media into a single pool, the media selection
algorithm won't take into account which changer a tape is loaded in and
will try to mount tapes from a different changer which causes problems.
A simple solution is to have one pool for each changer and update the
pool for a given media depending on which changer it gets loaded into.
This appears to work in practice but I was wondering if anybody knows
of any unintended issues that might arise from doing this on a routine
basis.

Thanks for any advice,
Rich.



Hello Rich,

Without seeing any configuration, my initial guess is that your different tape 
changers (well, the Director Storage resources
and their associated changers' device resources) have the same media types.

This would (
might) explain what you are describing.

Can you show us some configurations for your Director Storage resources and 
their related Autochanger and Device resources in
the SD(s)?


Best regards,
Bill

Hello Yakup,

Great to hear that it helped. Thanks for your feedback.

Yesterday we released a new Bacularis 2.1.0 that includes the
performance improvement for loading the dashboard. You can read about
it here:

Re: [Bacula-users] Baculum Dashboard is too slow on remote vpn connection

2023-07-17 Thread Yakup Kaya 
Hello Marcin,


Thanks a lot! Great support from you, as usual.


The compression significantly improved the loading time. Below is a screenshot 
before and after the compression. Everything is much faster now. I will try to 
replace Baculum with Bacularis on my installations as well, when I have time to 
do it.

Hello Yakup,

Thanks for your feedback.

This mod_gzip module that you indicated is for framework files, not
for Baculum itself. I would propose to use mod_deflate. First you need
to make sure that in your Apache instance this module is enabled in
config:

LoadModule deflate_module modules/mod_deflate.so

And then in Baculum Web Apache config file you can modify 
tag and add there lines like below:


AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/javascript
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE application/json

...rest options


After that please restart the web server and enable in the web
developer tools in the web browser displaying compressed and
uncompressed response size. In Google Chrome this option is named "Use
large request rows" in the network console settings. This way you will
see if compression works.

Independent on enabling the compression I prepared changes to speed up
loading dashboard page. I added it to Bacularis and then I ported it
to Baculum. This change significantly improves loading the dashboard
page. It is available from next release.

Best regards,
Marcin Haba (gani)
