Hi,
I'm using Bacula 1.38 and Disk-Files as Storage Device.
It often happens that Incremental-Backups get very large, because
people are creating huge files at inproper locations within the
client's filesystem. This leads to the situation, where all my
volumes get Full.
So my question:
Is it poss
Hello,
I have the kernel guys interested in this problem. Could those of you who are
having problems, please send me the following things:
1. The tape drive you have
2. Its connection type IDE/ATA/SATA or whatever
3. The name of the kernel driver you are using
4. A one line (max 2) description
I put a fixed 2.0.3 version of bacula-sd.exe on my anonymous ftp site.
The URL is:
ftp://ftp.the-nelsons.org/pub/brian_debelius/bacula-sd.exe
Please let me know if this fixes the problem and I'll check in the fix for
the next 2.0.x release.
Thanks,

I was originally going to post to ask if it was working for anyone
else, but I've solved my problem.
However, In case someone on the project team can escalate this
concern to SourceForge, some of the links to the list archives are
broken.
First, here's the trail of links that DOES work:
This is a bug in the Windows port of the SD. I'll fix it.

The issue is DNS, which DHCP and/or the PC should be updating
automatically using DDNS standards.

While playing around with debugging, I discovered this error at the

What about some dynamic DNS service such as dyndns.org? There are
clients for both windows and linux. Then you could sipmply give the

In our case the main computing services centre insists upon dynamic
IP's for all workstations.
I did read about setip in the manual but I am not sure it is implemented
in the windows version.
And I also don't know how to implement it in windows FD.
Does anyone else have a suggestion?

I works well!

When the windows client machine is turned off for a long time it is
possible for it to get a new IP address from DHCP and then the backups

I have searched for Action in my httpd.conf, there was none present. I
have searched in apache documentation, and the syntax you gave me seems
to be correct. I have put it in my httpd.conf. I will restart the server

Hello Andreas,
This is a rather ugly solution, but as long as it is working, I am
happy. One problem I have found is when I 'force' bacula to unmount
and eject the tape, it will not automatically mount the new tape. So
I have two jobs, one to do the unmount, and one to do a mount before
backups
I have following situation:
It is time to make monthly tape backup, but director wants tape (lets
say 20) with label I not have, but I have blanc tape
I do not want to label other tape with this number.
How to force bacula to use new tape instead of recycled one?
Thanks

Hi!
The media type should be the same in both dir and sd (e.g. backup_server
only). Now it looks for a device which does not have the media type
given in the director. Tell me if you need more instructions or an

I think you do the same as I did when I started off.
