Many of which are from the bacula people, and others from individuals. I see bacula as a kind of programming language for backups, but you dont have to start from scratch. Just take examples and modify them to suit. Like programming, it takes lots of reading and experimenting with the options to understand how, or which work best for you.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula Install Ubuntu 16.04
I would install ubuntu server 16.04x and select lamp if you like mysql, as well as openssh, and any other options that are listed on the initial setup screen. Dont use the option to choose more packages, which opens additional screens. Doing that never goes well for me. you can add that stuff later. then once you've booted and updated and rebooted, there are packages you can install with: sudo apt install bacula And I think there are variations like: sudo apt install bacula-fd Search for which are available. After that, you need to modify the files in /etc/bacula/ to fit. Because i have more control of how/where bacula is installed on the server, I compile the files from sourceforge. I have notes for that, but its a lot of work. On 05/29/2017 12:18 PM, Brian Blater wrote: Anyone have a nice easy to follow How to for installing and configuring Bacula on Ubuntu 16.04?

I use LZO to backup my jpeg images, that are stored on SSDs. I used to
use gzip2 for speed, and in the hopes it wouldn't damage the images as
much as higher levels of compression might.
Now, I hope LZO doesnt damage them, and I consider restoring them from
backup is not ideal, but better than not having them.
Would it be better to create a job that uses no compression for .jpg files?
Currently:

"Desktop" drives will spend a lot of time trying to relocate data from failing sectors before they consider themselves failing. It is completely true. The computer industry has relied on SMART for many years now. RAID controllers rely on it, for example. When a sector is 'reallocated', there's no guarantee the data that the drive moves to a spare sector is any good. The damage is already done. All it takes is one or two bad sectors to destroy the OS or entire partitions, or you might just have a few files go missing. It's just a matter of luck.

Re: [Bacula-users] multiple concurrent tape jobs
> Now what I'm thinking of is streaming multiple concurrent jobs to a single drive I do that. On my lan, I need to backup config files and mysql, etc on a few centos and ubuntu servers. And also my win7pro computer which has large ssds, and which takes hours to backup to an LTO4 drive on my 1G network. Trying to schedule all that is a nightmare, so I just do it all at once. The servers are only a few gigs each, and without spooling they are interleaved with the Windows backup. But that's fine because they are located at the beginning of the tape, and so searching for server files doesn't take very long. Without spooling, the tape drive runs continuously with only occasional/brief stops or changes in speed. With spooling, the drive sits idle until the cache fills, then runs until the cache is empty, then waits again. It's a 2.5 hour backup without, and it's a 4+ hour backup with spooling, if I recall. At least that's how it works for me. Feature request might be a threaded cache? Not sure if that's a correct way to describe it... deleting files as are they are recorded and fetching new files to fill in the background. Anyway, I think it works great as is, without spooling.

Re: [Bacula-users] What to exclude?

I would think with bare metal recovery you couldn't afford to exclude anything. As for myself, I tend to replace the failed part and install from scratch, then restore the applications and settings. Installing from scratch lets me know the condition of the hardware. It should install smoothly and with no crashes/freezes/unexplained occurrences.

Re: [Bacula-users] latest bacula client (bacula-fd) for Windows
I keep hearing talk of old community code which makes it sound like the Win32 support has become proprietary. It does sound as if Bacula will eventually become the world's hardest to install, pay-for backup solution. Not that I blame Bacula for going closed source: money is a strong motivator. However, I think without open source Windows clients people won't take the considerable time it takes to learn how to install Bacula, and they will turn to other solutions.

Re: [Bacula-users] Backup of many small files
we switched to /usr/share/mysql/my-huge.cnf Honestly, the truth is that all of those sample configuration files are all but worthless. I can't speak to all versions of bacula, but I used the my-huge.cnf from Version 5.2.13 to create my own my.cnf file. I had to disable a couple of lines in the file that prevented msql from starting, and I did my own tweaking to make it run in 4 Gigs of ram. There are also lines to enable InnoDB. I used 'mysqltuner.pl' to help with the tweaking. They may not be perfect, but I think those sample .cnf files are a good start to rolling your own. By the way, it wasn't enough to enable InnoDB - I had to create the bacula database after it was enabled for the tables to use this engine. (it was a new install) I don't know if it's possible to convert the tables after enabling InnoDB, but I would think it's better to start them out that way.

[Bacula-users] interesting news about MYSQL
Excerpts from http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/09/24/mysql_connect_2013/ Oracle chief corporate architect Edward Screven said that the team developing MySQL at Oracle is now the largest it has ever been, and is roughly twice as large as it was when Oracle acquired Sun Microsystems in 2010. Our plan, generally, for MySQL is constant, steady, drumbeat releases - always making it better, he said. We don't want to have the kind of development cycle where we have two years between releases only. We want to get the new and interesting capability and functionality and quality in the hands of our customers on a regular, frequent basis. The current release, MySQL 5.6, has been available for around six months, and many of the customers who participated in conference sessions said they had yet to upgrade from earlier versions. Yet Oracle is already pressing on with version 5.7, releasing between two and four Development Milestone Releases (DMRs) per year. MySQL 5.7.2, was made available on Saturday to coincide with the start of the Oracle OpenWorld conference. (That version numbering doesn't mean MySQL 5.7 has been vetted for production use yet - for reference, MySQL 5.6 wasn't considered production-ready until the 5.6.10 build.) The most obvious improvement in the new release is speed. MySQL engineer Tomas Ulin says MySQL 5.7 is 95 per cent faster than MySQL 5.6 and 172 per cent faster than version 5.5. The new version can achieve a peak throughput of over 500,000 queries per second on the Sysbench point select benchmark, and thanks to code contributions by Facebook engineers, it can now process new connections to the database as much as 64 per cent faster. -- October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.

Re: [Bacula-users] interesting news about MYSQL
The question that has to be asked, though, is under what test conditions. Well, I have to assume the tests mean on the same hardware. Which implies changes in code. The story did mention help from Facebook in the form of code. a customer who's running 5.5 on an 8-core rented server today isn't going to go out and rent a 128-core server tomorrow to run 5.7 Ideally, if newer versions are faster, one might delay renting that larger server. MySQL 5.6 is actually slower, core for core and RAM for RAM, than 5.1 on older hardware with the same data. I appreciate legacy hardware, but I'm a small business with newer x86_64 hardware as are all of my customers who use mysql, so not really a concern. To me it means that if I can hang on a little longer I'll be rewarded with speed, and won't have to spend the time converting everything to a different database. -- October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.

Re: [Bacula-users] backing up NTFS file systems
This mostly seems to work, but with one annoying oddity. When I run an incremental backup, it seems to want to back up just about the entire NTFS file system, even though commands like ls -lt and ls -lc don't show the files or their metadata as having been modified. I can tell you that backing up my Windows 7 workstation works correctly. Incremental and Differential grab only files modified or added since the last backup. But since you mention the commands ls -lt and ls -lc, which are not windows or dos commands, I'm assuming that your NTFS volumes are attached to a nix OS?

Re: [Bacula-users] Need to downgrade bacule 5.2.12
Thanks for the information. Tried with 5.2.10 but got the same result: error 1067. After doing some research, I've seen people having the same error even when using client version 5.0.x, so it's possible the version number of the client is not the problem. I think you may have a couple of problems, and it should be possible to fix with the help of people on this list. Can you provide your bacula-fd.conf file from the windows client?

However, it could be that the character sets do not match as they all have to be UTF-8 but how do I control that on windows? If you use the wrong editor, it can mess up a linux .conf file.

They use a different Group than mine too. Unfortunately, I have found that these settings can differ greatly from one distro to another. They also vary by whomever created the package. People get used to using certain directories and continue to use them even though everyone else is using other directories. For example, I use Ubuntu and the scripts are placed in /etc/bacula/scripts/* I compile bacula from source, so I have to tell the installer to place them there. And the reason I place them there is because that seems to be the directory most commonly used for Ubuntu.

Re: [Bacula-users] BeforeJob: Can't find your catalog (MyCatalog) in director configuration
Hmmm..the light is finally shinning, if the query isn't executable that explains everything I believe that /usr/lib64/bacula/query.sql is where bacula dumps your mysql database to text before backing it up. It does not need to be executable. Your query.sql is not empty, so that concerns me. You changed permissions on files and directories according to what Simone said, but that was meant for another system and not right for your system. This concerns me. The file /usr/sbin/dbcheck.mysql is missing and bacula is configured to use that file. This concerns me as well. My system does not have a file named dbcheck.mysql either. There is however, a file named /sbin/dbcheck. Can I ask is this a production machine you're working on, or just for testing?

Re: [Bacula-users] BeforeJob: Can't find your catalog (MyCatalog) in director configuration
OK, Im wrong about /usr/lib64/bacula/query.sql - this is not where bacula dumps your mysql database. MyCatalog is the file. It creates it, then deletes it. But that file is missing when bacula tries to back it up. /usr/sbin/dbcheck.mysql is missing so name it that, and make sure it is marked executable.
