Re: [Bacula-users] Bat advertisement
During the process of getting it fully functional, I found the JobList feature of bat particularly useful because it instantly showed me which jobs failed, and by right clicking on them, I could even see the Job Report with the details of the errors. Pretty cool. Though bat was initially my project, the majority of the features and virtually all the really nice ones are due to Dirk Bartley's efforts. You can see an overview of the features at: http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/GUI_Programs.html Is bat going to be considered stable for this release? I am sorry if I missed that.

I consider it stable, but given that it is a *very* large body of brand new code, we can expect a number of bugs to crop up when it becomes heavily used under varying conditions. I don't expect any of the bugs to be a show stopper. I have used it exclusively for at least four months now. John - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

I don't expect any of the bugs to be a show stopper. I have used it exclusively for at least four months now. I ask that because at least on my setup with bacula 2.1.22 running bat on the same machine as the director causes the director to segfault on any query that takes more than a few seconds to execute. One example of this is clicking on the joblist (which I have around 6200 completed jobs). I have not had the time to debug this at work because a really important software deadline is only a few weeks away. At home where I have 2 clients and a few jobs I have not seen this problem.

I have used it exclusively for at least four months now. if there was a restrictd console that would only allow any access only to few hosts, would bat sensibly allow accessing director and, for example, restoring data ? or would it freak out because of being unable to access some information ? if that was possible, it would make some admins pretty happy as they could restore their server data with a clickthrough tool themselves :) John -- Rich - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

One example of this is clicking on the joblist (which I have around 6200 completed jobs). This sort of problem is extremely common in new code especially with relatively large volumes of information. Well, a *lot* has happened in both Bacula and to bat since version 2.1.22. Dirk has even put pretty large amount of work into bat since version 2.1.28, and if I remember right, I have corrected at least one PostgreSQL crash involving bat and several other minor bugs, so I wouldn't be surprised if your problem has been resolved. I have not had the time to debug this at work because a really important software deadline is only a few weeks away. At home where I have 2 clients and a few jobs I have not seen this problem. The best thing to do would be to update to beta 2.1.28 or better yet to the current SVN and test again. If it fails, please open a bug report.
