Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring Incremental Promotes to Full
Hello Everybody, Yes, I am coming. Thanks for calling me here :-) Baculum / Bacularis always use full as a base + incremental or differential backups. In the restore wizard close to the radio button with the "Selected backup" restore method there is green help icon where is described the way how this method works: "Note: if you select incremental or differential backup, on the next step will be also loaded all directories and files from older backups required to do the job restore. In other words, the selected backup determines time point from which will be loaded the selected backup and other older backups (incremental, differential) backups up till closest full backup." If you don't use the restore from copy jobs function, Baculum will put your selected jobid to the following bconsole command: .bvfs_get_jobids jobid=XXXJOBIDXXX that determines all single backup jobids needed to do a consistent data restore. If you want to restore using copy jobs function Baculum will use own algorithm to determine jobids because of an old bug in .bvfs_get_jobids command described here: https://gitlab.bacula.org/bacula-community-edition/bacula-community/-/issues/2500 Best regards, Marcin Haba (gani) On Sat, 28 Oct 2023 at 01:26, Bill Arlofski via Bacula-users wrote: > > On 10/27/23 16:17, Chris Wilkinson wrote: > > Having looked at the job log from a Baculum restore I can see that it is > > going back to the last full and restoring full, > > diffs, incrs in order. > > > > Is it not possible to restore from a particular job alone in Baculum as is > > possible with bconsole? > > Knowing Bacula, and knowing Marcin, I am sure there must be a way. > > Let's wait for Marcin to chime in. :) > > > Best regards, > Bill > > -- > Bill Arlofski > w...@protonmail.com > > ___ > Bacula-users mailing list > Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users -- "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."

Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring Incremental Promotes to Full
Having looked at the job log from a Baculum restore I can see that it is going back to the last full and restoring full, diffs, incrs in order. Is it not possible to restore from a particular job alone in Baculum as is possible with bconsole? -Chris- On Fri, 27 Oct 2023, 23:09 Chris Wilkinson, wrote: > Yes Bill that is very helpful. > > It is exactly as you say when I use bconsole restore.

Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring Incremental Promotes to Full
Yes Bill that is very helpful.
It is exactly as you say when I use bconsole restore. That works. I must
have made a mistake when I tried with bconsole previously.
I'm not able to reproduce that behaviour using Baculum, it always restores
from a full irrespective of the level of the job being restored. There
doesn't seem to be an equivalent of selecting a specific job ID.
I take your point about schedule being unwanted but it shouldn't do any
harm. I'll take it out for tidiness :).

When you do a restore in bconsole, by simply typing `restore`, you are
presented with a menu of options.
Most people will want option 5 or 6, sometimes 12.
When you choose 5 or 6, Bacula will build the virtual restore directory tree from the last Full + all Incs up to the latest
Inc (or from the last Full and the last Diff and then any Incs that followed)
Bacula will even tell you what jobids, their levels, and the volumes it has
selected to build the restore tree from:

I have no idea what Baculum does, Marcin can answer you definitively, but I bet there is a way to "restore files only from
selected jobid" or similar option.
I also thought that only one 'dummy' restore job is needed that would be populated by the appropriate level, pool etc. from
the job/level being restored but that isn't what actually happens. It looks like the restore is taking its' level from the
restore job above.
There is no such thing as a 'level' when doing a restore. The Bacula config parser requires certain things to be in each Job
resource, and a `Type = Restore` Job resource is a Job just like any other.
The pool, client, fileset, and storage are ignore as
Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring Incremental Promotes to Full
I don't see any options to specify level either in Baculum or bconsole
restore? Level has no meaning in a restore context since we restore jobs
that have a defined level.

Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring Incremental Promotes to Full
As far as I know you should only need one restore job.
Have you tried specifying which level to actually use when you did the
restore? Like in bconsole I think you'd add "level=incremental" to the end
of the restore command. In baculum/bacularis you would click the drop-down
box where it said "full" and change it to incremental.

[Bacula-users] Restoring Incremental Promotes to Full
Till now I have only ever done restores of full backups using the restore
wizard of Baculum. When I did a restore of an Incremental backup, I found
that it reverted to restoring the last full backup. I get exactly the same
behaviour using bconsole restore.
This is the restore job resource.
Job {
Name = "Restore"
Description = "Restore template"
Type = "Restore"
Level = "Full"
Messages = "Standard"
Storage = "dns-325-sd"
Pool = "usb16tb-full"
Client = "usb16tb-fd"
Fileset = "usb16tb"
Schedule = "sched_none"
}
I had thought that most of these directives are not actually used as is but
would be overridden by the wizard, i.e. the values here are required but
unimportant.
I also thought that only one 'dummy' restore job is needed that would be
populated by the appropriate level, pool etc. from the job/level being
restored but that isn't what actually happens. It looks like the restore is
taking its' level from the restore job above.
I have separate pools for each job and level.
Do I need to define individual restore jobs for every job/level?

OK, but mine seems like the last examples in 'FileSet Examples':
https://www.bacula.org/9.6.x-manuals/en/main/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION00218
So 'Include' define the root of the dir to backup, and 'Options {}' stanzas
define what to include and what to exclude.
What i'm missing?! You have some (counter) examples? Thanks.

Re: [Bacula-users] Windows filesets setup...
The problem is that your second options clauses matches the directory
"C:/Program Files" so that is excluded and the first options clause is never
used.
Have a look at the example about "My Pictures" in
https://www.bacula.org/13.0.x-manuals/en/main/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION0022110
to see how to set it up.
