Re: [Bacula-users] fileset

[Julien]

Hi,

I would change the order because of the "first match" rule :

FileSet {
  Name = "DataToSave"
  Include {
Options {
  exclude = yes 
  wildfile = "*.LDF"   ## list of
  wildfile = "*.MDF"   ## extensions I want to
  wildfile = "*.ldb"   ## exclude completly
}
Options {
  signature = MD5  ## list of
  compression = GZIP1  ## extensions
  wildfile = "*.mpg"   ## I would
  wildfile = "*.mpeg"  ## like not to
  wildfile = "*.pdf"   ## be compressed
  wildfile = "*.gz"## ...
  wildfile = "*.tgz"   ## In fact
  wildfile = "*.zip"   ## I use the 
  wildfile = "*.rar"   ## lower compression
  wildfile = "*.mdb"   ## level, because
  wildfile = "*.avi"   ## I couldn't
  wildfile = "*.flv"   ## find out
  wildfile = "*.swf"   ## how to
  wildfile = "*.gif"   ## completly disable
  wildfile = "*.png"   ## software compression.
  wildfile = "*.jpg"   ##
  wildfile = "*.jpeg"  ##
}
Options {  ## Normal compression
  signature = MD5  ## for
  compression = GZIP   ## normals files
}
  File = "d:/PathToSave"   ## The place I want to backup
  }
}

(to check ...)

Oh, filesets with exclusions and wildcards... my favourite waste of 
time in Bacula ;-)

Just one hint for now: The options section that matches *first* will 
be applied, so you should define the options starting with the most 
specific definitions first.

In your case, the first option block could be the one defining the 
excludes, then the one defining the files not to get compressed - 
simply omit the compression keyword here - and lastly, as a catch-all 
for the remaining files, set your defaults including compression.

Also note that a fileset change will trigger a new full backup, so 
before playing around with the options, set "Ignore Fileset Changes", 
or use the "estimate listing" command to verify your fileset works as 
it should.

Just as an information:

- most of my windows 2K clients (with winbacula 1.38.10) didn't like very
much to have no compression specified at all in the option clause! Going
back to gzip1 solved the problem!

Yeah... I suppose that error message is some sort of catch-all for a 
number of other problems. In this case, I really wonder how no 
compression could lead to network problems.

Also, I know for sure there are many windows FDs running without 
compression without these problems.

It might be a problem with the options parser, but I'm quite sure that 
that one existed in some 2.0 version and only with signature=SHA1...

Perhaps the FD is sending data too fast for the network - I know that 
this should be absolutely impossible, but as your problem client runs 
windows I would even believe that ;-)

thats strange, because the default configuration of bacula has the Exclude 
section after the Include section:

FileSet {
  Name = "Full Set"
  Include {
Options {
  signature = MD5
}
  }
  Exclude {
File = /proc
File = /tmp
File = /.journal
File = /.fsck
  }
}

is that wrong then?

The exclude method you use is the "Exclude" directive...
I use an "exclude = yes" in an "Options" directive.
I guess that's where the difference is
Anybody to confirm?

No, but include with options to actually exclude is different to an 
exclude section.

I should have made that more clear in my original answer...

Re: [Bacula-users] FileSet Exclude

Hello!

Try:

File = "C:/Dokumente und
 Einstellungen/*/Anwendungsdaten/*/Profiles/*/*/Cache"
...


I had the same problem, found no documentation on it, but this works for me 
(quite similar setup like yours).

Look at the doc for  where it says "Any name preceded by an at-sign
(@)...".  This is actually works anywhere in the config file, so you can
create a file containing lots of WildFile lines and use @ to splice this into
the config multiple times.  A slight difference between that and using
less-than is that you'll need to reload the config if the @ file is changed.

Sorry to follow up on my own posting, just wanted to report that
introducing compression apparently doesn't trigger a full backup.

No, you can't use [] like that in a regexp -- it is for matching single
characters, not strings.  There is no "not" operator in regexps.

This does most of what you want:

FileSet {
  Name = "data-users-media"

  Include {

  Options {
signature = md5
wilddir  = "/home/*/Movies"
wild = "/home/*/Movies/*"
wilddir  = "/home/*/Music"
wild = "/home/*/Music/*"
wilddir  = "/home/*/Pictures"
wild = "/home/*/Pictures/*"
  }

  Options {
wild = "/home/*/*"
Exclude = yes
  }

  File = /home
  }
}

The only problem is that it also includes everything directly in /home, but
that may not matter.

By the way, I am thinking of "removing" the default include all, so that in a 
simple case, absolutely nothing will be included unless there is an explicit 
Options { }  that includes it.  That would eliminate most of the confusions 
with exclusion.  However, that would be non-compatible.

It might be better to make it an error, since otherwise it will be number 1 in
the frequently annoying questions chart forever :-)

Won't it look a little odd though?  You'll need Options wild= as well as File=
for simple things like, for example, setting the signature type on all files.

The problem above is that you can't easily exclude unknown things at a
directory level while including some known things at a deeper level.  How
about allowing partial matches in the File= line?  E.g. something like

File = wild /home/*/Movies

Actually there is, if you happen to use perl compatible REs (if bacula
does that I do not know).

regexdir = "/home/[^/]+/(?!Movies|Music|Pictures])/.*"

there is. Ie this works

egrep "/home/.*/[^Pictures]" pathlist.file

the only problem is it would also _not_ match /home/user/iPctures because of 
the nature of []... I have not tried this with bregex because I prefer your 
solution below.

this does the trick. Thanks a lot.

not that I can see. The wild = "/home/*/*" directive also seems to 
match "/home/*" for a reason that I do not quite understand.

Adding wilddir = "/home/*" to the include block selects all dirs directly 
in /home, which indicates that everything was selected by the File = /home 
directive... also removing the exclude block selects everything (both tested 
with estimate).

So "/home/*" must be dropped in the "/home/*/*" match IMHO.

Right, and /home/user/Plausible, /home/user/impossible etc.  Anything
beginning with P, i, c, etc will behave the same, which is almost certainly
not wanted.

That's not what happens for me -- e.g. if a file (not directory) called
/home/bogus exists then it will be backed up, which indicates that it does not
match /home/*/* (as expected).

Yes, adding wilddir = "/home/*" will recursively match all dirs (but not
files) underneath /home.

I think there are two problems:

1) Bacula stops looking for Options clauses as soon as one with a pattern
   matches, so "/u/jail/*/u" overrides "/u/jail/*/u/logs" and the logs will be
   included.

2) Filenames that match none of the patterns will match the implicit default
   Options clause and still be allowed (e.g. /u/jail/*/bin).

I forgot about “estimate”. Thanks. Its been six years since I’ve used Bacula.

Take a look at the "estimate" command in the Bacula bconsole program. When used 
with the "listing" argument, all the files to be backed up will be listed.

Hi Mike,

You might also find the @output command very useful.

Re: [Bacula-users] fileset question

[Jeff Dickens]

Here it is:

FileSet {
   Name = "XP_WS3"
   Include {
   Options {
   exclude = yes
   RegEx = ".*\.lnk"
   RegEx = ".*\.mp3"
   RegEx = ".*\.wma"
   }
   Options {
   signature = MD5
   compression=GZIP
   WildDir  = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My 
Documents"
   Wild = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My 
Documents/*"

   WildDir  = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Desktop"
   Wild = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Desktop/*"
   RegExDir = "C:/Documents and Settings/[^/]+$"
   }
   Options {
   exclude = yes
   Wild = "C:/Documents and Settings/*"
   }
   File = "C:/Documents and Settings"
   }
}

Thanks to those that responded to Robin Bonin's thread about a year ago, 
in particular Martin Simmons.


I have two follow-up questions:

What exactly is the RegExDir directive doing?  I understand what the 
regex is doing, but how does that help here, since all the WildDirs are 
getting "ored" together.. what does it match that the others don't?


Secondly, does anyone else agree that it would be desirable to have the 
fileset look more like this:


Include {
  Rational_Filespec: = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/My Documents"
  Rational_Filespec: = "C:/Documents and Settings/*/Desktop"
}

instead of the dog's breakfast?

Maybe if I had the answers to those questions I would understand why 
this fileset is totally non-functional.  It backs up just the top level 
directories under "Documents and Settings".


FileSet {
   Name = "XP_WS4"
   Include {
   Options {
   exclude = yes
   RegEx = ".*\.lnk"

Re: [Bacula-users] fileset question

[Bob Hetzel]

1) regex is more powerful (and therefore slow) for what you're trying to 
do.  WildFile is probably what you'd want instead.
2) You can't do both an include and an exclude of the same directory.
3) Start with something really basic.  Take out all the exclusions and then 
you're just left with the File line.
Then put all the exclusions in one Options block.  It looks to me like you 
only want to include each user's Desktop, My Documents, and Thunderbird 
folders.  Have you looked at how big it would be to just include everything 
  under Documents and settings with possible temp directory exceptions?

That would be quite a lot simpler... like so...

FileSet {

   Name = "XP_WS4"
   EnableVSS=yes
   Include {
   Options {
   Signature = MD5
  compression=GZIP
  ignore case = yes
  exclude = yes
  WildFile = "*.lnk"
  WildFile = "*.mp3"
  WildFile = "*.wma"
  WildDir = "*/temp"
  WildDir = "*/temporary*"
  }
   File = "C:/Documents and Settings"
}

Also, are you sure you'd want to exclude .lnk files?

Also, after setting this up, you can log the list of files it gets with the 
command
@output /tmp/file-listing.txt
estimate listing job=
@output

I typically look over those lists for stuff to exclude, but mainly I sort 
it by size to exclude big stuff that wouldn't be useful, such as installers 
for acrobat reader, etc.

The RegExDir matches the directories directly within C:/Documents and
Settings/ but nothing within those directories.  It is needed because none of
the other WildDirs match those directories.

Bacula walks over the filesystem from the File= lines and doesn't descend into
any directory that matches an exclude rule.  The RegExDir clause is needed to
allow it to descend into those directories, otherwise it will not even
consider the Desktop etc subdirectories.

Yes, but it is difficult to implement efficiently in more general cases
without scanning the whole filesystem looking for matches.  The current
algorithm allows large parts of the filesystem to be ignored completely.

It is because you didn't tell it to back up

C:/Documents and Settings/*/Application Data

Re: [Bacula-users] fileset question

[Jeff Dickens]

Thanks, Martin, Bob.  I will have another look at it.  Your explanations 
will help.


But I did come up with a neat workaround - since I'm generating client 
configs with m4 macros, I just added a per-client fileset and it seems 
to work perfectly. I just have to pass in the username as well as the 
hostname and password...


Like:

m4 -D CLIENTNAME="marie3" \
   -D CLIENTPASS="44_characters_of_random_printable_ascii" \
   -D USERNAME="marie" \
   /etc/bacula/conf/clients/client2.m4

That gets included into the director config with @|,

Also found that the password better not contain a back-quote or it will 
confuse m4.

I think you should just try it, with a very simple set of files.  The 
answer will become obvious immediately.

Offhand, and based on my doing similar, it is not the list of files 
which determines a new FileSet, is the specification thereof.  In short, 
you'll get a full the first time.

Fileset changes are calculated from the config file, not the list of files
returned by the "\|" script, so it will do Incremental too.  Don't use the
"accurate" option though, because it will get confused.

You could use a separate fileset and job for each directory.

Re: [Bacula-users] FileSet List

[Marcin Haba]

Hello Eric,

Could you show your Apache log: baculum-api-access.log from time when you
are trying to open the fileset?

Also I would like to ask you about providing output from the following
bdirjson command?

bdirjson -c bacula-dir.conf -r Fileset -n YOUR_FILESET_NAME

In place YOUR_FILESET_NAME you need to provide a real fileset name, and
paths for bdirjson and bacula-dir.conf need to be added.

BTW. The latest Baculum version is 11.0.5.4. I encourage to update to this
version.

Best regards,
Marcin Haba (gani)

Re: [Bacula-users] FileSet change detection

[Uwe Mohn]

 From what i've learned from the manual the "Exclude = yes " expression 
in the body of the "options" Part just determines weather eventually 
given wildcards like "wilddir=\xxx\*yy" found in the defined fileset are 
to be included (default;  no "Exclude = no" requiered) or excluded.

so here's one of my standard windows-filesets, the "options" part 
matches mostly all windows-server-disks, the "Exclude" part is 
machine-specific:

FileSet {
  Name = "someWindowsServer"
  Enable VSS = yes
  Include {
options {
  compression = GZIP
  ignore case = yes
  signature = MD5
  exclude = yes
  wilddir = "*/temp"
  wilddir = "*/recycler"
  wilddir = "*/system volume information"
  wilddir = "*/tmp"
}
File = "C:/"
  }
  Exclude {
File = "C:/Programme/Bacula/working"
File = "C:/pagefile.sys"
   }
}

So from my point of view your initial backup should have backuped the 
whole path you specified.
Why bacula doesn't consider the removement of the "Exclude" expression 
as a fileset change is beyond my knowledge.

Yes, it only compares the "File =" lines.

Re: [Bacula-users] Fileset compression + Migration

[Eric Böse-Wolf]

Hello Arvid,

Arvid Rune Rånes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:

I think you should not use software compression from inside bacula in
this scenario. Try to get some transparent filesystem compression on the
lv/partition where your backups file volumes are. That has two 
advantages:

1. You don't need to bother about compression in bacula.
2. If you migrate a job from file to tape it won't be twice compressed.
   (If you backup to file, the backup get's compressed, if you migrate, 
   the contents of the file volume will be written on the tape but on a 
   per job basis and not on a per file basis, but the compression is on 
   a per file basis so I can't imagine, that the backups get
   decompressed for migration and zooom you have twice compressed data,
   which is most of the time bad.)

As I'm not an expert on bacula, take a grain of salt.

Your sincerely,

Eric

The only reasonable approaches to this problem seem to be 1) ignore it 
and 2) snapshots.

Snapshots are not created by Bacula automatically, with the noteable 
exception of windows VSS backups. For unix-like systems, you could use a 
script run on the client before the job that creates a snapshot, then 
back up that instead of the 'normal' file system, and finally destroy 
the snapshot after your job finished.

Hi,

I don't think there is something like JobDefs for FileSets, but you can
include external files anywhere in your configuration by putting an @ in
front of the path.

Example:

   FileSet {
  Name = "Windows-C"
  Include {
 @/path/to/options.conf
 File = "C:/"
  }
   }

Re: [Bacula-users] Fileset with wildcards

[Martin Simmons]

Your first attempt didn't work because the "File =" line doesn't allow
wildcards.

Your second attempt didn't work because Bacula traverses the folder tree
starting from /home, but the fileset doesn't match any direct subfolders in
/home, so it stopped before it could find the subfolders matching your
wilddir.

The simplest fix is to generate the fileset using a script something like
this:

FileSet {
Name = "My-Fileset "
Include {
Options {
wilddir=lost+found
wildfile=*.wav
wildfile=*.mp3
wildfile=*.avi
wildfile=*.iso
wildfile=*.ogg
wildfile=core.*
wildfile=*.o
Exclude = yes
}
Options {
Hardlinks = no
Compression = GZIP8
}
   File = "\\|sh -c 'ls -1d /home/*/*/*-tutor'"

   }
}

Note that the options to ls contain the digit one (not the letter l) to make
it print one name per line.  Also note that the Options for excluding are
listed first so that the default options are last (look for "last Options
resource" in the documentation).  Also, the options for excluding must be
within the same Include clause.

I think yes. You want to backup recursive '/' and '/usr'. It is your

I am using a separate FileSet definitions in this case. I check what
filesystems are available and then I'm choosing a proper fileset.

In my point of view it is not a "bug" nor a "feature". User wants to copy
recursive all files from "/" and from "/usr" filesystems, so any available

(I just had this discussion in the "RAIT" thread) It's how sequential 
media works: you can write the same exact bytes to different locations 
on the tape. This percolates to all streaming formats ("tar -c * *") and 
related software, backup systems being the prime example. I was 
half-hoping bacula uses the absolute path + checksum as the primary key 
in its catalog (and so would not backup the same file twice), but no 
such luck.

I ended up doing
\\sh -c 'find ... -exec dirname \\{} \\; | sort | uniq'
because my filesets are not static -- but you need to make sure the 
selector doesn't return files in a subdir *and* its parent dir (in my 
case it shouldn't, fingers crossed ;-)

Have you tried configuring onefs = no?

"If you wish to backup multiple filesystems, you can explicitly list each
filesystem you want saved. Otherwise, if you set the onefs option to *no*,
Bacula will backup all mounted file systems (i.e. traverse mount points)
that are found within the *FileSet*."

Doing this way you does not need to specify "/" and "/usr". Just the
effective directories. Am I doing some confusion here or this solves your
problem?

With "onefs=no" option (as Ana suggested) it (File=/) will backup "/usr"
when "/" and "/usr" are separate filesystems. This is how onefs=no works.

It will backup a "/proc", "/sys" or other virtual or remote filesystems if
they not be carefully excluded. So be warned!

I should've spelled out "and 'onefs = yes', which is the default".

The point being, unless you already have every subdirectory you care
about on every host in its own separate partition (not a very common
setup IME), "onefs" will probably not help you.

Yes, I would prefer to have a long list of "/usr". "/etc", "/var", etc.
And have "onefs = yes". This way avoids a lot of trouble, including
"infinite loop recursing filesystems", like states in manual...

If you have onefs set to no, you have to be very carefull about excluding
directories to avoid incuring unexpected situations.

Uhmm... and how much time do you spend repartitioning your disks and

Re: [Bacula-users] Fileset inclusion list question

[Ana Emília Machado de Arruda]

Hi Dimitri,

I just have /home and /media in separate partitions. And we have a very
good controlled and well dimensioned /var, /usr and /etc. This way we
rarely need to resize our filesystems.
What I suggested here was basically not having an entire "/" backup. IMHO
there is no need to back up the whole root partition...
And If Jonathan has a lot of separated filesystems mounted under /mnt, for
example, he could use onefs=no and put "File = /mnt" in his fileset
definition.

Ana

Re: [Bacula-users] FileSet BUG or not?

[Yuri Timofeev]

Workaround (description of problem see below):

FileSet  {
Name = "test.set"
Include {
File = "|myfile"
}
}


myfile  (chmod a+x):

#!/bin/sh
find /tmp/test/|egrep "^/tmp/test/[^/]+/1/.*"



Result:
/tmp/test/a2/1/test_file
/tmp/test/b1/1/test_file
/tmp/test/b2/1/test_file
/tmp/test/a1/1/test_file
the end.



 problem
-

There is a structure of directories:

find /tmp/test/

/tmp/test/
/tmp/test/a2
/tmp/test/a2/2
/tmp/test/a2/2/test_file
/tmp/test/a2/test_file
/tmp/test/a2/1
/tmp/test/a2/1/test_file
/tmp/test/b1
/tmp/test/b1/2
/tmp/test/b1/2/test_file
/tmp/test/b1/test_file
/tmp/test/b1/1
/tmp/test/b1/1/test_file
/tmp/test/b2
/tmp/test/b2/2
/tmp/test/b2/2/test_file
/tmp/test/b2/test_file
/tmp/test/b2/1
/tmp/test/b2/1/test_file
/tmp/test/test_file
/tmp/test/a1
/tmp/test/a1/2
/tmp/test/a1/2/test_file
/tmp/test/a1/test_file
/tmp/test/a1/1
/tmp/test/a1/1/test_file


It is required to make backup on a mask:
"/tmp/test/*/1"

The following FileSet description does not work:
Include {
Options {
wilddir = "/tmp/test/*/1"
}
Options {
exclude = yes
regexdir = ".*"
}
File = /tmp/test
}

bwild makes correct output:
/tmp/test/a2/1
/tmp/test/b1/1
/tmp/test/b2/1
/tmp/test/a1/1

estimate command output only "/tmp/test"

What here it is wrong?

And how to receive demanded result?

The problem is that walks from from the top, so it excludes /tmp/test/a2
before it ever sees /tmp/test/a2/1.

You need something like this:

Include {
Options {
  wilddir = "/tmp/test/*/1"
  wild= "/tmp/test/*/1/*"
  wilddir = "/tmp/test/*"
}
Options {
  exclude = yes
  wild= "/tmp/test/*/*"
}
File= /tmp/test
  }

Have you considered the estimate command in bconsole?

Would that output be useful for you?

Re: [Bacula-users] Fileset depending on ClientRunBefore

[Leon Bruno]

Yes I did the estimate command on the fileset and the result is what I
expected.
That's why I believe at the time bacula get the list of files to backup,
the backup is not yet done, thus the runbefore command is actually
executed after the fileset has been estimated.

Have you considered the estimate command in bconsole?

Would that output be useful for you?

Please do not reply at the top of the email.

I do not understand what you need.  From the subject, I think you 
want to create a FileSet from ClientRunBefore.  But I have a hard 
time parsing the content of your email to understand your objective.

I will guess again: If you are trying to dynamically create a 
FileSet, I suggest reading this URL:

   http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Configuring_Director.html

And search for this test:

"There are a number of special cases when specifying directories and 
files in a file-list. They are:"

If that is not what you need, please tell us your goal / objective.  
You are asking how "to do the fileset estimation after the runbefore 
task".  I think you've already decided what the solution is but I 
think some context will help us find a solution for you that will 
work.

I might be wrong, but I read this to mean Bruno was having problems 
because Bacula builds the fileset/filelist it is going to back up before 
it runs the RunBefore job.

However, Bruno's script is designed to do a Database backup first and 
then provide the fileset information on where this Backup is stored second.

As far as I know there is no way to control this behavior, I can see a 
couple of ways to work around it:

1) Have the actual Database Backup done as part of an Admin job 
scheduled to occur just before the Bacula Backup job runs. If you are 
running multiple concurrent jobs this might be hard to implement.

2) Backup the files to a location you can calculate in advance - For 
example, make every days backup get created in a subfolder named after 
the date for example. The 'fileset building script' can then easily pass 
this folder back to Bacula.

3) Have the fileset building process run the backup directly first - No 
idea whether this would even work, nor exactly how bad an idea it would be.

Hope this helps,


Troy.

This works.

Basically you create whatever files you need, and output their names.

It was probably me who proposed something like the following.  I suspect it 
never worked because contrary to what I thought the exclude = yes matches 
nothing.  So,  I have two suggestions that may work:

1. Add a
 wild = "*"
   just after the exclude = yes

2. Alternatively, and probably better, add a

regex = ".?*$"

   just after the exclude = yes.

I would be interested to know if this works or not.

This is why I thought the above would work, but I think in fact that the above 
is wrong. On the other hand, if one drops out of all the Options, and nothing 
has matched, then everything is matched, and the Options from the last 
Options are used (but apparently not the exclude -- I'm going to look into 
this).

Yes.

By searching the archives, I found the following FileSet example

Thank-you for your message Kern.  I tried both of your suggestions - 
both seem quite reasonable; however, the first one resulted in no files 
being backed up at all.  The regex in the second suggestion produced 
config errors.  I changed it to:

   regex = ".*"
   and I also tried
   regex = "^.*$"
Though both of these resulted in no files being backed up.  I made sure 
to add the wild/regex statements after the exclude = yes, though the 
results were the same no matter where in the Options resource I placed them.

It's a curious thing... the wild = * or above regex statements in the 
second Options resource results in no files being backed up at all, yet 
it should not have even read that Options resource with regard to the 
tarballs I'm trying to back up (since those are matched by a previous 
Options Resource).  Here is the latest version of my fileset config 
(which currently results in no files being backed up):

FileSet {
 Name = "Test Set"
 Include {
   Options {
   wild = *.tar.gz
   signature = MD5
   compression = GZIP
   }
   Options {
   exclude = yes
   wild = *
   }
   File = /home/df/test
 }
}
The directory /home/df/test consists of a combination of regular files, 
tarballs (tar.gz), and directories.

"An Options resource that does not contain a wild directive is assumed to
match any filename. This is important to understand, because once Bacula
determine that the Options matches the file under consideration, that
file will be saved without looking at any other Options resources that
may be present."
   

This is why I thought the above would work, but I think in fact that the above 
is wrong. On the other hand, if one drops out of all the Options, and nothing 
has matched, then everything is matched, and the Options from the last 
Options are used (but apparently not the exclude -- I'm going to look into 
this).

Thanks very much Kern, any other suggestions you or anyone else has are 
much appreciated!

Well, it looks like I made a small typo here (rather my International keyboard 
bit me).  It should be:

  regex = "^.?*$"

However, life is never so simple; even that is wrong.  Why? because it 
excludes everything even /home/df/test. The correct solution is to use:

 RegexFile = "^.?*$"

which excludes all files but not the directories.

So the complete correct FileSet *should* be:

FileSet {
  Name = "Test Set"
  Include {
Options {
WildFile = *.tar.gz
signature = MD5
compression = GZIP
}
Options {
exclude = yes
RegexFile = "^.?*$"
}
File = /home/df/test
  }
}

With the above, Bacula will backup all your *.tar.gz files as well as all the 
directories (no files) including and under /home/df/test.  It is probably 
better to let the directories to be backed up so that if a file is restored, 
all the directories leading down to it are also restored with the proper 
owners/permissions.

Note, Regex/RegexFile/RegexDir do not work on Win32 systems since it is not in 
the Microsoft libraries, and I haven't take the time to dig out the source 
code and include it in Bacula.

Hi Kern,
Sorry for the late response on this one, I've been away from the 
computer for a few days.

Unfortunately, the changes utilizing WildFile and RegexFile aren't 
producing different results.  Here is the message I received when I 
first made the changes and reloaded the configuration (I copy/pasted the 
provided FileSet):

22-Mar 17:26 davidfuchs-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at inc_conf.c:495
Config error: Regex compile error. ERR=repetition-operator operand invalid
   : line 119, col 35 of file /usr/local/bacula/etc/bacula-dir.conf
   RegexFile = "^.?*$"
So I changed the regex to
   RegexFile = "^.*$"
And it accepted the configuration, but backed up all files.  I also 
tried using 'WildFile = *' after the 'exclude=yes' but got the same results.

I'm using version 1.36.2, which was compiled from source on FreeBSD 
4.10-STABLE (gcc-2.95.4).  Thank-you so far for your assistance, do you 
have any other ideas?  Perhaps I should move to the development version 
and try with that?  (Although I usually prefer keeping with the latest 
stable codebase, it's not a necessity).  Looking forward to your 
response Kern!

Thanks,
-David Fuchs

David,

The regex that you used "^.*$", in addition to files beginning with "." is 
also picking up  the current directory ".", hence you're backing up all files 
in the directory. The regex that Kern suggested, "^.?*$" requires at least 
one character after the leading "." to avoid this.

I know next to nothing about file exclusions, so this is just a guess, but you 
might try "^.?*" (without the trailing $).

I believe that the problem with this is that this directive is telling
the regex engine two conflicting things regarding the number of times a
character is to be matched.

The '^' symbol is an anchor directive (means (in this context): only
match the following pattern if it starts at the begining of a line)
The '.' symbol is a pattern directive (means: match any character)
The '?' symbol is a repetition directive (means: match the preceding
pattern 0 or 1 times).
The '*' symbol is also a repetition directive (means: match the
preceding pattern any number of times, including 0 times)
The '$' symbol is another anchor directive (means: match the preceding
pattern only if it stops end of a line)

when the regex parser gets to the ?* portion of the regex, it thinks
that it is being told to match a  "0 or 1 times" any number of times,
which doesnt make sense.

You could instead, say "^(.?)*$" which (due to the parentheses) tells
the '*' directive to relate to the whole '.?' pattern rather than the
'?' directive. All this being said, this pattern is a bit redundant.

This makes more sense anyway, in regex terms.

It seems like that should have done the trick, but you could always
simplify it even further to ".*" just to make sure, since you are trying
to match everything passed to it, correct?

Re: [Bacula-users] fileset: second eyes needed

[Clark, Patricia A.]

I found this line:
   RegexDir = ".*"
In the exclude options to be the issue.  I've removed it and have been
getting the exact backups required.

I think you need to split the Options clauses differently.

Bacula scans them in order and accepts/rejects as soon as one matches, so your
first clause matches only the directories whose name begins with "s"
(including st123) and the second clause rejects everything else.

Something like this will work:

FileSet {
   Name = "home_s"
   Include {
 Options {
   exclude = yes
   wilddir = "/mnt/home/st123"
 }
 Options {
   wild = "/mnt/home/s*"
   compression = GZIP4
   sparse = yes
   noatime = yes
 }
 Options {
   exclude = yes
   RegexDir = ".*"
 }
 File = /mnt/home
   }
}

This does work indeed, but that would still be useful to be able to
change that behavior.
However I don't know if that requires a lot of changes in bacula itself.

You have to put the Exclude=yes at the _beginning_ because first match wins

Hi Julien,

I see, so the snippet should be:

Include {
Options {
Exclude = yes
wildfile = "access.log"
wildfile = "access.log.*.*.gz"
wildfile = "access.log.*.*"
wildfile = "error.log"
}
}

If so, thanks very much for your help.

Yes, for example I have the following lines in my bacula-dir.conf :

278 FileSet {
279 Name = rivendell-fs
280
281 Include {
282
283 Options {
284 IgnoreCase = yes
285 Exclude = yes
286 @/etc/bacula/excludes/global
287 }
288
289 Options {
290 compression = GZIP6
291 IgnoreCase = no
292 signature = MD5
293 recurse = yes
294 onefs = yes
295 }
296  
297 @/etc/bacula/includes/global
298 @/etc/bacula/includes/rivendell
299 }
300
301 Exclude {
302 File = core
303 }
304 }

if lines 283-287 were after line 299 it would not work.

Hello,

Direct the output the estimate listing to a file, then sort it any way 
you want.

Is there a way to tell Bacula to sort them in a

I actually do this but I am afraid it is not that
simple because sorting it e.g. by filename (including
path) or by date would require additional scripting.
Hence the whole question.

I was hoping that the listing could be sorted by
Bacula itself.

What use cases exist for sorting the estimate?

I don't know. Personally I would like to be able to
sort by general file system attributes:

- file name
- full path name
- date (ctime, mtime, maybe also "last backed up")
- (perhaps also): permissions/acl, xattr

It is extremely simpler to make a sort outside then inside Bacula. Sorting
inside Bacula would consume resources which is not what you want.
External sorting require some additional scripting which you can do in a
few minutes then you can add some filtering if you wish. You can even load
all estimation data to database and do sorting, filtering, aggregation, etc.
Possibilities are endless and limited by your imagination.

Developing this kind of functionality inside Bacula require a lot of effort
and time. If you want to contribute a such functionality, you are welcome.

Actually by my lack of knowledge (otherwise I wouldn't
really ask). I know how to filter things a little bit
with sed + regex but I am not sure for example how to
sort by full path name preserving all the other
columns displayed by `estimate listing`. I suppose
that is out of the scope of the current mailing list.

to sort:
$ man sort

to filer by regex:
$ man grep

to make a single line batch use '|'

I am not completely new to those but don't know how to
sort e.g. by full path name while still preserving the
data before it (as listed by 'estimate listing').
Surely eliminating the dates and permissions would
allow that but I still want to see all the data for
each file.

That's why Radosław directed you to the manpage of the sort(1) command.
If you read it you'll find it contains an extensive description of how
to select the part of the input lines by which they should be sorted.
Just try it.

Hannes,
The area in the docs is under the Director Config Job Resource:
http://www.bacula.org/3.0.x-manuals/en/install/install/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION0063


What I should have mentioned in my earlier email was that although bacula
should be deciding what Job Level to perform, I had a special need that I
resolved by changing the client script to make more sense. I'll keep an eye
on how the next couple weeks go...

Thanks,

Hi

I precise my problem,

I succeeded for the fileset that exclude the Mailboxes I got this :

FileSet {
Name = "FileServer"
 Ignore Fileset Changes = yes
Include {
  Options {
  regexfile=
"^.*\.(mp3|mp2|m4a|wma|flac|ogg|cda|aac|zip|lzh|rar|7z|gz|jar|bz|bz2|arj|deb|msi|pkg|tgz|ico|tif|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|rpm|avi|vob|mkv|flv|mpg|mpeg|divx|wmv|avi|mp4|mov|qt)"
exclude = no
HFSPlus Support = yes
Signature = MD5
ACL Support = yes
xattrsupport = yes
}
Options {
compression = GZIP3
exclude = no
   HFSPlus Support = yes
Signature = MD5
ACL Support = yes
xattrsupport = yes
}
Options {
Signature = MD5
ACL Support = yes
HFSPlus Support = yes
xattrsupport = yes
IgnoreCase = yes
regex = "/FileServer/.*/Utilisateurs Office 2004/Identit.*
principale/.*"
regex = "/FileServer/.*/Identit.*s Office
2008/Identit.* principale/.*"
exclude = yes
}
File = "/FileServer"
}
Exclude {
File = */.DS_Store
File = */.Spotlight-V100
File = */.TemporaryItems
}
}


I still got the problem to write the other one. :-(
I am still failing in only including files that match the following
regex
regex = "/FileServer/.*/Utilisateurs Office 2004/Identit.* principale/.*"
regex = "/FileServer/.*/Identit.*s Office 2008/Identit.* principale/.*"

Thank you

Re: [Bacula-users] Fileset generated by awk

[Jérôme Blion]

Le 10/05/2011 11:56, Jérôme Blion a écrit :

Hello,

I have to backup machines which have been configured different ways 
for the same feature. In fact, I want to backup mysql binlogs on a 
hourly basis.

binlogs can be located at different locations:
 /home/mysql
 /usr/local/mysql/data
 /home/binlogs
Depending on the client.

If I use the following Fileset directive,

FileSet {
  Name = "Mysql Binlogs"
  Include {
Options {
  signature = MD5
  wildfile = "*-bin.*"
}
Options {
  Regex = ".*"
  Exclude = yes
}
File = "/home/mysql"
File = "/home/binlogs"
File = "/usr/local/mysql/data"
  }
  Ignore Fileset Changes = yes
}

the backup log contains:

10-mai 05:17 tucana-dir JobId 117: Start Backup JobId 117, 
Job=Backup_aquila1_binlogs.2011-05-10_05.17.00_46

  [...]
  Non-fatal FD errors:2
  SD Errors:  0
  FD termination status:  OK
  SD termination status:  OK
  Termination:Backup OK -- with warnings

I would like to tune my Fileset definition to avoid these non-fatal 
errors.
If I run the following command on the client, I'm sure to get the 
correct path to backup:


`awk '{ if($1 ~ /^log[-_]bin/ && NF==3) logfile=$3; else if($1 ~ 
/^datadir/) datadir=$3 } END { if (logfile != NULL) print "dirname " 
logfile; else print "echo " datadir }' /etc/mysql/my.cnf`


I created /tmp/binlogs.sh:

8<--
#!/bin/bash

`awk '{ if($1 ~ /^log[-_]bin/ && NF==3) logfile=$3; else if($1 ~ 
/^datadir/) datadir=$3 } END { if (logfile != NULL) print "dirname " 
logfile; else print "echo " datadir }' /etc/mysql/my.cnf`

--->8

If I set File = "\\| /tmp/binlogs.sh" the backup runs fine.
I would like to use the awk command directly in the Fileset directive.
Any time I use a backquote, the command fails and my backup does not work.

My last attempt was: File = "\\| bash -c \"`/usr/bin/awk '{ if(\$1 ~ 
/^log[-_]bin/ && NF==3) logfile=\$3; else if(\$1 ~ /^datadir/) 
datadir=\$3 } END { if (logfile != NULL) print \"dirname \" logfile; 
else print \"echo \" datadir }' /etc/mysql/my.cnf`\""
I tried with: File = "\\| bash -c \"\`/usr/bin/awk '/datadir/ {print 
\"echo \" \$3}' /etc/mysql/my.cnf\`\" " without success.


aquila1:~#  bash -c "`/usr/bin/awk '/datadir/ {print "echo " $3}' 
/etc/mysql/my.cnf`"

/home/mysql
aquila1:~# bash -c "`awk '{ if($1 ~ /^log[-_]bin/ && NF==3) 
logfile=$3; else if($1 ~ /^datadir/) datadir=$3 } END { if (logfile != 
NULL) print "dirname " logfile; else print "echo " datadir }' 
/etc/mysql/my.cnf`"

/home/mysql

10-mai 11:17 aquila1-fd JobId 149: Fatal error: Error running program: 
bash -c "`/usr/bin/awk '/datadir/ {print "echo " $3}' 
/etc/mysql/my.cnf`". stat=2: ERR=Child exited with code 2

"dirname " logfile; else print "echo " datadir }' /etc/mysql/my.cnf`". 
stat=2: ERR=Child exited with code 2


What could I try to perform what I want ?

Best regards.
Jerome Blion.


As usual, I found the solution just after sending this mail:

FileSet {
  Name = "Mysql Binlogs"
  Include {
Options {
  signature = MD5
  wildfile = "*-bin.*"
}
Options {
  Regex = ".*"
  Exclude = yes
}
File = "\\| awk '{ if(\$1 ~ /^log[-_]bin/ && NF==3) lf=\$3; else 
if(\$1 ~ /^datadir/) dd=\$3 } END { if (lf != NULL) system(\"dirname \" 
lf); else system(\"echo \" dd) }' /etc/mysql/my.cnf"

  }
  Ignore Fileset Changes = yes
}

HTH.

Not a direct answer but...
what about creating hard links so that all servers have a common unique path 
and 
use hardlinks=no?
Wouldn't that work?

Hi,

I have something similar. I take most of my backups from ZFS snapshots,
which means I have '.zfs/snapshot/backup/' in in the middle of all my
paths. To restore from that, I use 'RegexWhere' in my restore job
definition, to snip that part out.

Sure.  This one is an example from jobid = 116360

FileSet {
   Name = "dent files"
   Include {
 Options {
   signature=MD5
 verify=pnugsmcs5
 }
 Exclude Dir Containing = .NOBACKUP

 File = /Users/dan
   }
   Exclude {
 File = *~
   }
}

Strange, that one should have an MD5.

Do you have any filesets with no Include or Exclude options?  That is the only
way I can see it would happen.

Ahh, that rings a bell.  Here is the copy job:

FileSet {
  Name = "EmptyCopyToTape"
}

Job {
  Name = "CopyToTape-Inc"
  Type = Copy
  Level= Incremental
  Pool = IncrFile

  FileSet   = "EmptyCopyToTape"

  Client  = kraken-fd
  Schedule= "CopyToTape-Inc"
  Storage = DigitalTapeLibrary
  Messages= Standard

  # don't spool date when backing up to tape from local disk
  Spool Data  = no 
  Spool Attributes = yes

  RunAfterJob  = "/home/dan/bin/dlt-stats-kraken"

  # no sense spooling local data
  Spool Data   = no
  Spool Attributes = yes
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 40



  Priority= 410

  Selection Type = SQL Query
  Selection Pattern = "
 SELECT DISTINCT J.JobId, J.StartTime
   FROM Job J, Pool P
   WHERE P.Name = 'IncrFile'
 AND P.PoolId = J.PoolId
 AND J.Type = 'B'
 AND J.JobStatus IN ('T','W')
 AND J.jobBytes > 0
 AND J.JobId NOT IN
 (SELECT PriorJobId
FROM Job
   WHERE Type IN ('B','C')
 AND Job.JobStatus IN ('T','W')
 AND PriorJobId != 0)
ORDER BY J.StartTime
"
}

I don't think so.  More likely it is because a wildcard specification is 
anchored at the beginning of a line unless you start it with a asterisk.  
When you wilddir, don't forget that what you ar matching against is the 
*full* path including a slash at the end.  


As an example (if I remove slashes and periods), if you have a file with a 
name "home-iora-recycle-Pics-Rio" in the current directory and you enter:

"ls recycle"

it is going to print nothing, but if you enter,

"ls *recycle"

it will print

home-iora-recycle-Pics-Rio

It may also print many other filenames that you do not want to see such as

home-abcrecycle-xxx

No idea, I'm not a big user of verify jobs. But check the manual

I would add another Include {} section to the fileset (before the 
"normal" one!) which only captures the log files, and sets the proper 
verify options. Sth. like
Include {
  Options {
   verify = 
  }
  File = /var/log/messages
  WildFile = /var/log/mail*
  RegExFile = /var/log/httpd/.*_(access|error)_log
}
or similar - the above is untested and not even verified against the 
manual :-)

If the size differs, the chance that the checsksum matches is quite small.

Don't know... perhaps new inode numbers (I don't know if that's a 
criteria for *this* comparison in a verify job)?

Actually, not astonishing as that file belongs to a process instance 
with a specific PID... I wouldn't even back it up as it will be 
useless to restore anyway. This is basically the same problem as item 
a) in your list.

Thanks.  Scripting a file list dynamically is a little 
heavy-weight for what I was looking for though.

I was hoping that there was some way of saying "backup a/"
but exclude "a/b" but include "a/b/c", but exclude "a/b/c/d"...
i.e, includes and excludes could be cascaded somehow.

But from reading the documentation about 30 times and
the lack of response here, I conclude that it's not 
possible; one only gets one level of include/exclude.

I tried using an exclude regex, 

   regex = "^/home/[^/]+/\\.(?!backup(/|$))"

which should do what I want.  But bacula-dir complains it
is invalid.  

Does Bacula include it's own regex code?  Is it possible to
(easily) build it with a less-anemic regex library?  (I am 
using the stock Bacula-5.0.3 distributed in Fedora 15).

Finally (in case it helps someone else), I was able to use
a more basic regex that does the same as above but which is
obviously a lot less clear:
  Regex = 
"^/home/[^/]+/\\.([^b]|(b([^a]|$))|(ba([^c]|$))|(bac([^k]|$))|(back([^u]|$))|(backu([^p]|$))|(backup[^/]))"

If you want to exclude dot _files_ (i.e. you don't care about
directories whose name starts with a dot other than .backup), and
assuming you're backing up the whole /home directory, this would be enough:

FileSet
{
   Include
   {
  Options
  {
 exclude = yes
 wildfile = "/home/*/.*"
  }
  File = /home
   }
}

If you also wish to exclude other dot-directories, I would try something
like:

FileSet
{
   Include
   {
  Options
  {
 wilddir = "/home/*/.backup"
  }
  Options
  {
 exclude = yes
 wild = "/home/*/.*"
  }
  File = /home
   }
}

Regex directives are another option, but IMHO they are a bit overkill
for this problem.

HTH,
andrea

Wow.  That's complex.  I'm sorry.

I suggest you want different Filesets.

But this will backup .thunderbird/ with its 800MB
mail cache, yes?  That's what I want to avoid (without
having to maintain a list of specific black-listed
files/directories.)

That's what I tried before (along with some 
permutations -- I admit to still not understanding
well how Bacula interprets Filesets.)  The .backup 
directory is included in the backed up files but its 
contents are not.

I thought so too which is why I asked here. :-)
