[Bacula-users] Distribution Best Practices
What are ways you would suggest rolling out Bacula clients in a Windows environment. I would like to keep users from knowing the password. What ways do you give users Bacula? Do you go to each machine and manually install it yourself, or do you send them the installer with the dir name and password and let them? Do you create your own installer?

Yes, I use disk based file storage. It is a full backup but, I will turn gzip off and defrag it to see if I can improve the speed. Thanks for the advice and any additional advice is welcomed.

Re: [Bacula-users] New to Bacula - emergency situation.
Check the compression of gzip make sure your getting the files compressed. May slow down the backup process but if it's space you are worried about it will help tremendously. And also, Bacula will always stay at full capacity no matter if the job is pruned. Unless you MANUALLY delete the volume it will stay there until it comes time to write over it. Bacula assumes the space given is only for it's use so it will keep it full until it needs room and will just write over the old stuff. Sent from my iPhone. On Jul 5, 2011, at 8:37 PM, larold bacula-fo...@backupcentral.com wrote: I have been asked to support a Linux environment running Bacula on an emergency basis. Bacula version is 3.0.1. I only have access to bconsole - no guis. I am also completely brand new to Bacula as of a couple of hours ago. I have no physical access to this server. Basically, I need to determine how to massively reduce the Bacula disk footprint (physical space the disk-based volume files are using) without adding more data to disk. This client has a Bacula server with 1.3+ TB of internal disk. It is completely full. I used a 'tune2fs -m 1' to give me back some of the reserved space for actual use and breathing room. All Bacula data is written to a group of 70 files, each roughly 10 GB a piece. Reducing this footprint would help reduce the filesystem from being 100% full. There are 23 backup clients. I have set the File Retention on all jobs down to 21 days. (Was 60 days). I have set the Job Retention on all jobs down to 2 months (was 6 months.) I would like to know, using bconsole commands only, the correct steps that will result in fewer physical volume files (hence reduced disk usage) without corrupting any of the data in place. I have a hunch it is some combination of prune commands, followed by purges? I just don't know, and want to proceed safely. All advice much appreciated. Please, no: - Criticizing of the setup - it wasn't mine - Suggestions that require anything complex outside of bconsole - Vague descriptions that don't point me to specific steps - Steps which require more than a couple GB of free disk space Thanks!! +-- |This was sent by larry_sch...@yahoo.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +-- -- All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.

Re: [Bacula-users] First Match Issues
Never mind, I figured it out on my own by tinkering with it. I will
post a code snippet in case someone searching runs across it may be
able to understand better. Thank you Martin for your advise, it just
was not clear enough for me to understand. What I needed to do was add
a separate entry for every level of the folders.
Note for every folder you want to backup you need a start location,
and an entry for every level of folders after until you reach the
folder you want to back up.
Ex:
FileSet {
Name = HmcBackup
Include {
File = C:/Documents and Settings
Options {
IgnoreCase = yes
Compression = GZIP1
RegExDir = ^C:/Documents and settings/[^/]+$
WildDir = C:/Documents and Settings/*/My Documents
WildDir = C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings
WildDir = C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application Data
WildDir = C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application
Data/Microsoft
Wild = C:/Documents and Settings/*/My Documents/*
Wild = C:/Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Application Data/Microsoft/*
}
Options {
Exclude = yes
WildDir = C:/Documents and Settings/*/*
}
}
}

Re: [Bacula-users] Jobs won't start
Thank you, I changed it from Fullset to another option I had
predefined but forgot to switch to it. I changed it to WinXPtest which
pointed to C:/jaketestfolder
Ran it without a hitch! Thanks everyone I appreciate the help.
