That looks slightly wrong, because it doesn't ever set the Level=Full.

It is correct already. Bacula uses wom 0 internally to mean "1st", 1 to mean
"2nd" etc.
A schedule runs when all of the conditions are true simultaneously. Also, it
calculates
mday = calendar_day_of_month - 1
wom = mday / 7
i.e. Jan 1 to Jan 7 are wom 0.

Re: [Bacula-users] Schedule not being followed
Some more information on this which may help. I did a show schedules and got
this:
Schedule: name=WeeklyCycle

The schedule resource if the bacula-dir.conf is this:
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycle"
Run = IncrementalPool = Incr-Pool-B 1st, 3rd, 5th mon-fri at 19:05
Run = FullPool = Full-Pool-B 1st, 3rd, 5th sat at 02:05
Run = IncrementalPool = Incr-Pool-A 2nd, 4th mon-fri at 19:05
Run = FullPool = Full-Pool-A 2nd, 4th Sat at 02:05
}
The schedule has the poolb jobs running on 1st,3rd,5th week of the month,
yet the "show schedules" shows it for wom 0,2,4.
Where else could this be set?

Re: [Bacula-users] Schedule not being followed
This still persists after I changed the schedule as per Anrno's instructions.
Bacula still thinks it is week 2 (or 4) and insists that it wants disk A.
When does the new week start according to Bacula, is it the same day as the
1st of the month or Sunday? Is there anyway to check what it "thinks"?
At the moment I can't get a consistent back up schedule running which is a
bit worrying?
For completeness I have pasted the dir conf here. Maybe there is something
else I have wrong.
TIA

For clients that I expect to not always be available, I use a run
script that pings them, and fails the job if the ping results in an
error. (For windows Vista and up, you need to allow ICMP in the
firewall settings...).
Combined with retries on failure, that gives good results for people
showing up at work late :-)

Hi Arno, Many thanks for this, it makes sense.
One question though. There are 2 laptops that need backing up and they are
not always connected to the network at the same time. How do people normally
configure Bacula to back-up laptops like this?

Re: [Bacula-users] Schedule not being followed
Hi Martin, If this is true then Bacula will dictate when the (in my case) the weekly disk has to be swapped out. I would much prefer to do this on a Monday morning, but if in 2010, Bacula wants to change on a Friday it will be Saturday next year? Can I define the schedule differently so I can swap the disks on a Monday?

The fact that it is the 2nd week starting on a Thursday is irrelevant for a day-of-week schedule. __Martin -- Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users

Well done Arno. I looked at this early today, but couldn't figure it
out. :)

Given the number of schedules you have, you also have different backup
jobs set up.
A backup job can only be based upon previous backups of the same job.
To achieve what you want, only use one job, and a schedule like
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycleAB"
Run = Incremental Pool = Incr-Pool-B 1st, 3rd, 5th mon-fri at 19:05
Run = Full Pool = Full-Pool-B 1st, 3rd, 5th sat at 02:05
Run = Incremental Pool = Incr-Pool-A 2nd, 4th mon-fri at 19:05
Run = Full Pool = Full-Pool-A 2nd, 4th Sat at 02:05
}
That should help :-)

[Bacula-users] Schedule not being followed
Using 3.0.2 on Ubuntu 8.04 server with MySQL.
It is now Friday of the 2nd week of January so the schedule A with Pool
A should be used, I would have thought. However, this morning at 9:05 I
get a message asking for a volume of drive B to be labelled. From Monday
to Thursday the A schedule was used correctly but now suddenly on
Friday, it wants to switch to the B schedule.
Maybe I have something wrong in the dir.conf? The schedule section is
below and any help would be appreciated.
# When to do the backups
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycleB"
Run = Incremental Pool = Incr-Pool-B 1st, 3rd, 5th mon-fri at 19:05
Run = Full Pool = Full-Pool-B 1st, 3rd, 5th sat at 02:05
}
Schedule {
Name = "DayTimeB"
Run = Incremental Pool = Incr-Pool-B 1st, 3rd, 5th tue-fri at 09:05
Run = Full Pool = Full-Pool-B 1st, 3rd, 5th mon at 09:05
}
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycleA"
Run = Incremental Pool = Incr-Pool-A 2nd, 4th mon-fri at 19:05
Run = Full Pool = Full-Pool-A 2nd, 4th Sat at 02:05
}
Schedule {
Name = "DayTimeA"
Run = Incremental Pool = Incr-Pool-A 2nd, 4th tue-fri at 09:05
Run = Full Pool = Full-Pool-A 2nd, 4th mon at 09:05
}
# This schedule does the catalog. It starts after the WeeklyCycle
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycleAfterBackupB"
Run = Full 1st, 3rd, 5th mon-fri at 19:10
}
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycleAfterBackupA"
Run = Full 2nd, 4th mon-fri at 19:10
}
Schedule {
Name = "DayTimeAfterBackupB"
Run = Full 1st, 3rd, 5th mon-fri at 09:10
}
Schedule {
Name = "DayTimeAfterBackupA"
Run = Full 2nd, 4th mon-fri at 09:10
}
