Re: [Bacula-users] Get Message About Different Filesystem
I have compiled bacula-fd on an HP-UX machine. When I went to run the director located on a Debian machine I get messages like /home is a different filesystem. Will not descend from / into /home I also get this message on /opt, /usr, /var, /stand. It was able to descend into /sbin, /etc. Any ideas as to why? Wait a second, gang. While I do see some replies that may (or may not) apply, I think there's something here that is more fundamental. Mike, most U**x systems are split up into a number of different volumes. This is done for a variety of reasons, both performance and security related. One of the biggest reasons is that root is the *ONLY* user who should have general write access to the top level volume. Yes, there may be minor exceptions such as /etc/tnsnames.ora. One major reason for this is that if the root filesystem fills up, unix systems tend to get very unhappy and start screaming at the system administrators. To avoid these problems, directories such as /var, /usr, /opt, etc. get their own dedicated disk space. If /opt fills up, yes, it's a problem, but it won't crash the box. Now, back to the original question. Backup systems tend to really pay attention to volume boundaries. This is exactly what Bacula is doing. It's letting you know that /usr, /var, /stand, etc. are on different volumes. /sbin and /etc are always part of the root volume, because they're required for single user mode operation, where none of the other volumes may be mounted or available. This really isn't an error, but it is letting you know that you do need to address the situation by either including these other mountpoints in include directives, or by using onefs (as a couple of other folks have kindly pointed out.)

Re: [Bacula-users] Get Message About Different Filesystem
That was it. I had to have a file= statement for all mounts mounts. Even though it still gives you warning, if you have the mount pointed listed, you are ok.

If you list all the mounts points you will still get the message error, which is annoying, because you still list /. At least I do know that it is working now.
