[Bacula-users] Bacula and NFS

I am new to Bacula and would like to run the Bacula director on a CentOS 7 virtual machine with the FQDN of bacula.itinker.net and use a NAS device as my storage repository. For now, my NAS is a somewhat dated Netgear ReadyNAS device that I'm going to replace with a new Synology box in the not-too

Hello Richard: avoid NFS for protocol performance issues. Go for iscsi. Regards, === Heitor Medrado de Faria - LPIC-III | ITIL-F |  Bacula Systems Certified Administrator II Do you need Bacula training? http://bacula.us/video

That's right! Beside, I already get error and many troubles when decide use NFS to host huge VM files... I think this issues also apply it for backup. Today, I prefer GlusterFS rater NFS GlusterFS can work like NFS as well and are more reliable than NFS, even version 4 I highly recommend av

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula and NFS

Thank you Devin. What you say makes great sense. Oddly, as soon as I switched to an iSCSI mount instead of an NFS mount things worked. Perhaps I configured the NFS mount incorrectly, but it worked just fine outside of Bacula. On Fri, Dec 4, 2015 at 6:42 PM, Devin Reade wrote: > --On Friday,

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula and NFS

Run the SD with debug level set to about 200.  I suspect that the NFS share is not mounted, so when the SD attempts to open it, it is blocked by the OS, which is what happens when you try to access an NSF volume that is not mounted. Best regards, Kern

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula and NFS

But I am able to access the share outside of Bacula with ease, so the NFS share is mounted. On Sat, Dec 12, 2015 at 6:25 AM, Kern Sibbald wrote: > Run the SD with debug level set to about 200. I suspect that the NFS > share is not mounted, so when the SD attempts to open it, it is blocked by >

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula and NFS

Might be reaching a bit, but do you have the NFS share configured such that the root user on a remote system can access it? Normally that capability is disabled by default (see no_root_squash option.) Matt On Sat, Dec 12, 2015 at 7:38 AM, Richard Robbins wrote: > But I am able to access the sha

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula and NFS

The 'ERR=Connection refused' message means that the storage daemon itself isn't accepting connections. This could be due to firewall rules or due to mismatched passwords between the storage daemon and the other components. I don't believe it is being caused by or is related to your NFS mount i
