[Bacula-users] Restore with bextract shows error bextract JobId 0: Error: attribs.c:485 File size of restored file...
Hi
We have a strange problem during a restore job with bextract.
We tried to restore some files for a user from a collection of backup
volumes for a Full backup job. Since the files are already purged from
the volumes on our bacula server but we still had to job log and the
volumes on another server we loaded all the volumes relevant to the
jobid X (with list jobmedia jobid=X) from the second server into a
folder /backup/tmp/ , created a boostrap file in the form of
Volume = volumename1
Volume = volumename2
...
an include file in the form
/home/username
and a bacula sd config file with the device
Device {
Name = FileStorage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /backup/tmp
LabelMedia = yes;
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes;
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
}
Now we started the restore process with
bextract -b ./bootstrap -i ./includeliste -c ./bacula-sd.conf
FileStorage /backup/tmp/restore
But during the process we get quiet a few errors
bextract JobId 0: Error: attribs.c:485 File size of restored file
filename not correct. Original filesize, restored smallerfilesize.
We tried this with a bextract from bacula 5.0.1 (the one we use on our
backup server) and 5.2.6. but both showed the same errors.
Goggeling the error messages showed some people had hardware problems or
a defect file system but a file system check and a raid controller check
on the system in question showed no problems.
Does anybody know if this is a known problems with restoring files by
using bextract? Is there any solution? So far we only could restore 397G
of the 600something GB in the backup job.
with regards
Christian

Hi folks, the above issue still persists, random copy jobs fail because bacula cannot correctly determine which read storage to use. the jobs finish successfully if I run a job manually and set all the relevant params (pool, storage) in the bconsole dialog. Is there a way to enter a list of jobids to copy in bconsole by using some special copy job selection pattern definition? Right now I have to edit bacula-dir.conf and reload the new config, using a single job_id to copy in a static sql select statement 8-P It looks like the error has to do with some recent optimization I added to the select statement: I had wanted to sort copy jobs by job size so the big jobs would run first (during the night) so it would be easier to stop the copy jobs during the day if access was needed to the lto5 drive. Still we have many copy jobs failing, but not as many as before as we now randomize job order more or less. Still I think it's a bit brain-dead by bacula that it's unable to sort out which storage and pool a certain job used during the online backup, so all jobs wait on the general File storage instead of using the correct storage device. I've heard it on the grapevine that some major changes to copy job logic and / or disk-based volume mgmt might trickle down into the community version, any more info on this? Is there a way I can manually trigger a copy job via text file where I can provide the job id, storage and read pool to be used? All the best, Uwe -- NIONEX --- Ein Unternehmen der Bertelsmann SE Co.

This is why bacula-server requires bacula-client. This change to the shared libraries will avoid the continually reported problems when upgrading Bacula on FreeBSD and not first deleting both bacula-client and bacula-server. Watch this thread, and I will post a URL from which you can download the upgraded ports and test them. We'll give you about a week to report any problems. Also, this is the place to discuss any issues with the above strategies. :) This was just committed to the FreeBSD ports tree. http://www.freshports.org/commit.php?message_id=201212161632.qbggwjzt011...@svn.freebsd.org I'm about to test the results in a sandbox… if my portsnap update will ever finish... The portsnap finally finished. Bacula seems to be running fine. I wish to emphasize that we've only changed the packaging, not the code. :) See above. As you upgrade, please reply here and let us know how it went. I tested it by: 1) pkg_delete bacula\* 2) cd /usr/ports/sysutils/bacula-server make install clean 3) portupgrade -f bacula-client\* 4) portupgrade -f bacula-server\* 5) /usr/local/etc/rc.d/bacula-fd restart 6) /usr/local/etc/rc.d/bacula-sd restart No errors and everything works fine :) Thank you for this! -- Silver -- LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.

[Bacula-users] Quarterly Bacula Status Report
To all Community users and contributors, Here is the summary of what I wish to discuss with you: 1. Major Microsoft Windows bug 2. The Bacula Systems Enterprise Migration program 3. Bacula version 5.2.12 4. Next Community version 5. Getting Bacula Windows Binaries 6. Season's greetings 1. Major Microsoft Windows bug Last week Microsoft announced a patch solving a problem which could lead to silent data corruption when using VSS for backup http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2748349 This is a problem that affects all backup programs such as Bacula, which use VSS (Windows snapshots) to obtain a stable copy of the system to backup. 2. Bacula Systems Enterprise Migration program Following the big success of the Bacula Systems Enterprise Migration program, Bacula Systems has decided that this program will be continued until further notice! This is a program to help the Community users migrate to the Bacula Enterprise version. You can go to http://www.baculasystems.com and click on the Selective Migration Plan in the core of the Homepage or go to www.bacula.org and click on the Selective Migration Plan icon in the upper right corner of the banner. 3. Bacula version 5.2.12 Since the end of 2011, we have released versions from 5.2.2 to 5.2.12! A lot of bug fixing was implemented as we went along to help the Community version improve. In addition, some new features appeared in two of the the intermediate versions which were versions 5.2.6 and version 5.2.10. You can find these release on Source Forge at http://http://sourceforge.net/projects/bacula/?source=directory Please check the release notes for further information on bug fixing contents. 4. Next Community version I had originally planned another community release about this time, because there are a number of bug fixes in the public git repository. However there are also a number of other bug fixes that we have just recently found as well as back porting from the Enterprise version that needs to be done, so given the holidays and my workload, the next release will probably be in early February 2013. In the mean time, you may pull the latest code from the git repository. 5. Getting Bacula Windows Binaries As you are probably aware, because of the work involved, the community Windows File daemon binaries are no longer produced by the Bacula project. As an an alternative, I proposed to Bacula Systems to offer their Windows Enterprise binaries as a service to the Community. They agreed, and have chosen a price that is designed to simply cover the costs of producing and distributing those binaries. You can now obtain these Bacula Enterprise Windows binaries from Bacula Systems SA by clicking on the following link http://www.baculasystems.com/windows-binaries-for-bacula-community-users. These binaries allow you to continue using the Bacula community version, while keeping Bacula well integrated into your Windows environment. These binaries contain the Windows File daemons only. As was previously the case for the Community binaries, the Windows Storage daemon and Director are not provided. Installers for both 32 and 64 bit binaries is included in the offer. The extra Enterprise Windows plugins are in separate packages and are not part of this offering. The support for any problems will be handled through the Community Bugs database. 6. Season's greetings Finally, I reiterate my sincere thanks to all of you for using Bacula and for your valuable contributions to the project. And, as we are approaching the end of year celebrations, I would like to wish you all a very happy and safe holiday season as well as a prosperous and peaceful 2013.

[Bacula-users] Excruciatingly slow backup to Tape - local and remote
I'm only seeing around 2MB/s write speed to tape. I have read all about spooling the data, etc. I would expect this to be an issue if I was complaining about getting 18-25 MB/s instead of 90-100MB/s maybe? Anyways, I simply cannot understand why a single job runs at 2 MB/s and 3 jobs will run about 2.5MB/s total.

Re: [Bacula-users] Excruciatingly slow backup to Tape - local and remote
You don't mention the technology behind your tape drive, database backend, CPU, RAM, or what your disk subsystem looks like--all of which would be useful to have a reasonable chance to analyze even vaguely properly, but I'll wade in nonetheless. You are almost certainly shoeshining the heck out of your tape media. I believe most drive types will have to resort to stopping and starting once you get below a certain threshold (for LTO3, I think this is somewhere around 30MB/sec, as an example), the tape drive will wind up starting a stopping very frequently (as well as rewinding a bit). I imagine this will wear out both tapes and drive mechanisms pretty quickly. Since you are not spooling data, I suspect you also are not spooling attributes--my first guess would be that your database backend is insufficiently fast--at a minimum you should spool attributes, and spooling data on even the local backups can yield performance gains, depending on your disk subsystem architecture. If network and disk subsystem can't deliver at least the minimum streaming rate for your tape drive, you need to spool to a fast enough disk to keep up with the tape drives needs. If you are using something like LTO5, I think spooling using either SSD or RAID0 may almost be required--but perhaps LTO5 actually supports relatively low minimum streaming rates--I don't know, as I can't afford LTO5 (and I think the minimum streaming rate may well be manufacturer dependent). -se On Mon, Dec 17, 2012 at 3:47 PM, shockwavecs bacula-fo...@backupcentral.com wrote: I'm only seeing around 2MB/s write speed to tape.
