Re: [Bacula-users] Q: fileset "magic" - still weird

[John Lockard]

Fileset {
 Name = “cadat"
 EnableVss = no
 EnableSnapshot = no
 Include {
   Options {
 OneFS = no
 RegexDir = "/mnt/cdat-.*"
   }
   Options {
 OneFS = no
 Exclude = yes
 RegexDir = ".*"
   }
   File = "/mnt"
 }
}

Justin, looking at this, Within /mnt, doesn't your exclude (".*") just end
up excluding everything?

Maybe you want something more like:

Include {
  Options {
OneFS = noExclude = yes
RegexDir = ""^(?!cdat-).*
  }
  File = /mnt
}


Or, get rid of the "Exclude" and use a script for the File...

Include {
  Options {
OneFS = no  }
  File = "|sh -c ’echo /mnt/cdat-*’"
}

Maybe?

Re: [Bacula-users] New Bacula web site

[John Lockard]

I actually think the removal of the animated dots would make the site more
readable.  The motion on the screen is sort of nauseating while trying to
read and makes me want to not read any more.

Re: [Bacula-users] print numbers without thousands separators

"I'm not sure I see the utility of copying and pasting any of the other

I do.  Running calculations within a script, a tally of number of files,
job bytes, averages, etc.

Re: [Bacula-users] backup volume size

[John Lockard]

How often are you backing up?  Fulls, Differentials, Incrementals?  How
long do you want to keep each?  How compressible is your data?  How much
does the data change?  How often does the data change?

Too many variables to answer your questions as given.

Only full backups, once a month, you'd need 200GB x 12 (ignoring
compression) = 2.4TB

Re: [Bacula-users] backup volume size

[John Lockard]

Not sure if there is such a thing as "a standard bacula configuration", but
as I said, the simple math says that if you only do 1 monthly full backup
and you keep the last year's worth of full backups, you'll need 2.4TB of
storage.  This completely ignores the retention of other backup levels.

Re: [Bacula-users] Schedule backup Job only from incremental

[John Lockard]

You could almost do things this way.  Unfortunately, you'll have to
occasionally wipe the mirror systems.

If I restored a full to the mirror machine, followed by a differential,
followed by any number of incremental backups, there's almost a 100% chance
that files which were deleted since a previous backup will now be present
on your mirror machine.  Since a restore from backup won't wipe out files
on the system which aren't on the backup, you'll always have some
percentage of cruft on the mirror system which should not be there.  If
these day-to-day work files are not a concern, and won't interfere too
much, and the mirror system works, but isn't perfect, this solution is
better than having nothing, and would have you up and running quicker than

 Hi all,
 I would like to have a DR site where the machines are clones of the

 May I use only the incremental volumes to daily restore them (something
 like sync this machine with the original ones)?

 Thank you

Re: [Bacula-users] NFS mount back ups?

[John Lockard]

Compression?
Backup level (files not backed up because they haven't been changed)?
Exclusions?

Have you gone through a full list of files to be backed up and a full list
of the files which were actually backed up?

 Hello,



 I have 2 HP-UX 11.31 and I have ERP data I need to back up on those
 systems. Since there is no client for it, I decided to copy the files to a
 temp location every night, and export that temp folder via NFS. I mount
 these exports into my bacula server and set it up so that it backs up those
 mount point.



 Everything seems to be working, however, the total size of the ERP data is
 about 33GB, but bacula is only copying 3.2GB, I see no errors in the bacula
 app, logs or the bacula server itself. There are no errors on any of the
 HP-UX servers either..



 Any ideas on what to do? Or detect why bacula it is stopping at 3.2GB and
 marking the job as OK..?



 Thanks

Re: [Bacula-users] Prevent jobs to run or limit bandwidth in certain hours/days?

[John Lockard]

Are you starting all your jobs at the same time?  Wondering if your having
issues with all of your jobs competing for bandwidth and slowing down.
Thinking a staggered start might help you.

 Hi everyone,
 I'm using Bacula 7.0 to backup a pack of servers. My schedules are all

 of them arent finished by morning and workhours bandwidth is a problem for
 me.

 I searched max bandwidth but it doesnt fit because i don't want to limit
 bandwidth in evenings, just in workhours, but i cant seperate it in job
 definition.

 Then I came across Max Start Delay and Max Run Sched Time and they
 don't fit either because i want to let the jobs run for example in weekends.

 Is there a way to define a jobs behaviour according to its time? Or what
 would you suggest doing in such situation?

There are a number of scripts available which can be run via cron to give

Aw, heck.  Might as well attach what I've been using.  Again, it's modified
from what you'll find in the examples/reports directory.  Usage amounts
will be different from what is reported by Bacula on the console or
on-system logs as Bacula reports 1000=1K and my report uses 1024=1K (easily
modified in the script).  I'm sure what I've done could probably be done
more cleanly/efficiently/correctly...   you're free to make those changes
as you wish.

Re: [Bacula-users] Job transfer rate

[John Lockard]

Yes, but which IO?

Disk IO on the client?
Network IO from the client to the network?
Network IO from the network to the Bacula Director?
Network IO from the Bacula Director to the Bacula SD?
Disk IO on the Bacula SD?
Database IO on the Bacula Director?


Seems like you have more work to do than just saying it's the IO.  Not
sure of the tools on Windows to interrogate IO at disk or network, but on
Linux/Unix a good place to start is the sar (sysstat) utilities.

On Thu, Oct 30, 2014 at 12:20 PM, Jeff MacDonald j...@terida.com wrote:


 Just be aware that you might not see a dramatic increase in speed just
 moving Bacula itself!

 If you are using VMWare with VMDK files on a VMFS volume you need to be
 aware that any IO by a guest requires a reservation of the entire VMFS
 volume.  Locking is happening at the SCSI layer - if one guest wants to
 read one byte of data nobody else can do anything until its IO operation
 is complete.  Remembering that you probably are only going to get around
 75 IOPs you can see how a VMFS volume with more than a handful of
 virtual machines on it can very quickly end up performing very poorly,
 especially with spinning rust underneath it.  A good RAID card with a
 LOT of cache memory can help with overall system performance, but
 backups by definition are going to be touching lots of areas of data
 that aren't likely to be in cache.

 What I'm getting at is you might actually need to focus your efforts and
 dollars on the storage underneath your VMs before you do too much with
 your backup system.  A great big nice happy dedicated Bacula server
 would be nice, but if the VMs are still IOP constrained ESPECIALLY if
 they are actively in use while being backed up you probably won't see
 that much of an improvement.

 An easy way to validate this would be to ensure you have attribute
 spooling turned on and to set up the attribute spooling to write to your
 NAS rather than to local storage.  That will get the VM storage
 infrastructure out of your backup pathway.

 Bryn


 This has been a fantastic education. Thanks. I’ll recommend to the client
 that their IO is slow.. and I’ll get told “Oh! It seems fine to us!” :)


 I googled and found documentation about turning on Data Spooling, but not
 indepnedantly turning on Attribute Spooling.

 Could you point me at that please.. ( I know I Know.. I’ll keep looking :)
 )

 Jeff.

Re: [Bacula-users] [7.0.5] Option to start spooling before volume mount?

[John Lockard]

I run into this issue with several of my servers and dealt with it by
creating migrate jobs.  First job goes to disk.  Second job runs some
reasonable time later and migrates the D2D job to tape.  I had a number of
key servers I did this for with the advantage that I could offsite the
tapes and keep the D2D job on disk till after the next backup had run.
This way I had immediate recovery available as well as disaster recovery.

  Hello,

 I enable data spooling for almost any job, because my LTO4 drive's
 hw-compression allows to stream _my_ data at little over 100MByte/s
 average, which bacula-fd can't deliver (localhost FD-SD connections
 allow ~25MB/s with 60+% CPU usage; SoftCompression is disabled; oberved
 FD reqests are 4KB/t only, but that's a completely different issue I
 have to look at more closely some times later).
 I'm aware that the numbers above are highly workload dependent and are
 not representative.
 They basically should give an idea why I need data spooling – nothing
 more. Environemnt is bacula 7.0.5 (dir, sd and fd), FreeBSD 10.1 (amd64)
 (also dir, sd and fd), LACP-GbE (irrelevant since I'm using localhost
 sockets), 3.4GHz Xeon-E3v3, 8GB RAM and two LSI2008.

 A typical job is 100-500GB in size. So spooling with only 25MB/s takes
 significant ammount of time.
 That's why I want to start the job as early as possible..
 My problem is that data spooling starts _after_ the volume has been
 mounted and positioned.
 So if I start the job at midnight, no single bit get's spooled unless
 somebody feeds the correct tape next morning :-( And next morning very
 often delays to next lunch; that's were the missing 4 hours breaks the
 timetable for my setup.

 Is there already an option I missed, which would enable data spooling
 without requesting the volume first?
 That would save exactly the hours my setup needs as buffer if somebody
 forgets to feed the tape.
 Or is there any reason why data spooling must be delayed? I can't
 imagine one. If something goes wrong at despooling, nothing changes if
 volume was available before spooling or not.

 Thanks,

 -Harry

  I see that the media is full. But I have purged and relabeled the tape
  for testing. From reading the documentation, should this not have marked
  the tape to be recycled? Or do I need to move the tape into the scratch
  pool for this to happen?
 
  I have also run the btape fill command to test the drive and media
  (after purging and relabeling). I get the following output:
  btape: btape.c:2736 End of tape 201:0. Volume Bytes=200,404,463,616
 
  It is an LTO 3 tape, so I should get 400GB uncompressed?
 
   It looks like on the tape is ~400GB data. Backup from above output has
   ~200GB data written. It looks well for me. Looking on 'Volume Session
   Id' it seems there also is some another backup. You can see jobs
   placed on this volume eg. by using bconsole.
 
  Apologies if I'm doing something silly, but is there a way I can erase
  the tape to ensure that there is nothing on the tape?

 Dear Bacula Users,

 I think that I've found a minor bug in bacula concerning the adjustment
 of clocks on the start of daylight saving (or summertime).

 I run a daily schedule on 02:00 AM which was skipped last night, when
 the clocks advanced one hour forward from 02:00 AM to 03:00 AM when the
 daylight saving hast started in central Europe.

 For me it is not a big issue to loose one daily backup cycle but I guess
 this might not be the case for others. I would think that even in such
 circumstances the planned schedule at 02:00 AM should have take place.

 Kind regards,

 Frank.

Yes, quite possible.

Check the examples/reports directory in the source tarball.

I've taken the reports.pl script and tweaked it to do

SNIP

I've just done another one which might be useful...

I keep backups on disk for about a week over a month, then
I migrate my Differential and Full backups to tape for safe
keeping.  Bacula doesn't purge media when all jobs from a
virtual tape have been migrated to physical tape, so the
disk jobs stay around for the full life of the job.  In my
case that means my Full backups would live on disk for
9 months, even though they were migrated to tape almost 8
months ago.

So, I need a way to find all MediaId's which have had *ALL*
of their jobs migrated to tape so that I can purge them.
Here's what I've come up with.  (If there's an easier way
to do this, please tell me).  (Works on MySQL)

:Test List Migrated Jobs stored on Media
*Order by (Job or Media):
!DROP TABLE tempmig;
!DROP TABLE tempmig2;
!DROP TABLE tempmig3;
CREATE TABLE tempmig (MediaId INT, Type BINARY(1));
CREATE TABLE tempmig2 (MediaId INT, Type BINARY(1));
CREATE TABLE tempmig3 (MediaId INT NOT NULL);
INSERT INTO tempmig
  SELECT JobMedia.MediaId,Job.Type
FROM Job,JobMedia,Media
WHERE JobMedia.MediaId=Media.MediaId
  AND Job.JobId=JobMedia.JobId
  AND Job.Type='M';
INSERT INTO tempmig2
  SELECT JobMedia.MediaId,Job.Type
FROM Job,JobMedia,Media
WHERE tempmig.MediaId=JobMedia.MediaId
  AND Job.JobId=JobMedia.JobId
  AND Job.Type!='M';
INSERT INTO tempmig3
  SELECT tempmig.MediaId
FROM tempmig
  LEFT JOIN tempmig2
  ON tempmig2.MediaId = tempmig.MediaId
WHERE tempmig2.MediaId IS NULL;
SELECT DISTINCT 
Job.JobId,JobMedia.MediaId,Job.Name,Job.Type,Job.Level,Job.JobStatus AS 
Status,Job.JobFiles AS Files,Job.JobBytes/(1024*1024*1024) AS GB
  FROM JobMedia,Job,tempmig3
  WHERE JobMedia.JobId=Job.JobId
AND JobMedia.MediaId=tempmig3.MediaId
  ORDER by JobMedia.%1Id ASC;
!DROP TABLE tempmig;
!DROP TABLE tempmig2;
!DROP TABLE tempmig3;

Re: [Bacula-users] Timeout (?) problems with some Full backups

[John Lockard]

While the job is running, keep an eye on the system which houses
your MySQL database and make sure that it isn't filling up a
partition with temp data.  I was running into a similar problem
and needed to move my mysql_tmpdir (definable in /etc/my.cnf)
to another location.

 Hello list!
 
 Sorry to trouble you with what's probably a simple problem, but I'm now
 looking at the very real possibility of wiping all our backups clean and
 starting from scratch if I can't fix it... :(
 
 I'm having problems with some Full backups, which run for between 1 and
 2 hours, appearing to time out after the data transfer from the FD to
 the SD. The error message (shown below) shows that the data transfer
 completes, often in about 1hr30min, and then Bacula does nothing until
 the job has been running for 2 hours at which point it gives an FD
 error.
 
 Other Full backups (which don't take as long) run correctly, and for
 most of the time Inc and Diff backups also run correctly. However, a
 small % of backups will fail at random, also with FD errors but at
 random times-elapsed during the job... this I have been ascribing to
 network fluctuations! The difference is that re-running these random
 failures will succeed, whilst this particular Full failure doesn't! ;)
 
 I've already tried setting a heartbeat interval of 20 minutes in the
 FD/SD and DIR conf files (thinking that the FD - Dir connection was
 timing out) but this doesn't change anything.
 
 In the time between the data transfer finishing and the timeout,
 Postgres has an open connection with a COPY batch FROM STDIN
 transaction in progress, which at the timeout produces errors in the
 Postgres log that I have also shown below.
 
 I'm happy to post portions of the conf files if needed, but they're huge
 and might well lead to tl;dr!
 
 Any suggestions as to how I can troubleshoot this further would be most
 appreciated!
 
 Nick Lock.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula spool on SSD -- solid state drive?performance testing?

  In theory, the latency from random IO should be much closer to zero on a

  only 1 or two 64GB or 128GB flash drives to provide decent spool size,
  perhaps not even raid-ed.
 
  In addition, SSD/flash drives should be silent and heat up the room less
  (although that latter effect will be small--10 watts vs 2 watts for each
  drive)
 
 For spooling/despooling there should be no latency problems. You need 
 throughput more than latency, and a standard hard drive will be as good as a 
 SSD or even better if setup correctly.
 
 All you really need is to be able to read and write big streams at the same 
 time. So the real problem is to help your disk scheduler to be able to read 
 while having a lot of data in the write cache.
 
 We managed to do that by raising the read ahead on the disk array (with the 
 blockdev command in linux). We have managed to get 300MB read and write at 
 the 
 same time with a disk array (I admit it costed a bit more than 2 intel SSD 
 drives), but we have terabytes of spool capacity.
 
 If you really want a SSD, I'd use it for the catalog's database if I were 
 you. 
 There, disk latency is often the main source of contention.

For spool, I would worry about the limited write (erase)
cycles of SSD.  Sure, the speed of read/write is enormously
appealing, but with how much my spool gets hit I'd hate to
have to set a really early replacement schedule because my
media can't handle many writes.  Rather than SSD for spool,
RAM-Disk looks like a better way to go.

Check your /tmp directory or MySQL 'tmpdir' location to see it
it's filling up with temporary DB data.  This same problem
happened to, in my case it was dying at around the 180GB mark.

Moving the MySQL tmpdir to a much larger location took care of

 Actually, this didn't solve it.  Despite the heartbeat packets visibly
 (in tcpdump) going from director to FD, the connection dropped at the same
 point anyway.  
 
 I then added the heartbeat interval to the FD too, so you can now see a
 heartbeat from DIR-FD and an ACK back from FD-DIR.  I now have a backup
 job running 2 hours 40 minutes and counting.
 
 That seems to be it.  I guess perhaps the connection originated from the

 which was connected _to_.

Re: [Bacula-users] bacula management questions

[John Lockard]

If you do 'status client=[clientname]', on the bottom of the
output you'll see the status of the last several jobs which
ran for that client.

I would keep doing like you are with moving old-fd to new-fd
and deleting config for the old config, etc..

Your old backup files I would think should be saved for the
defined life of the backup and will eventually disappear when
that lifespan has been reached.

For example, if I create a new webserver I won't automatically
delete all of the old webserver's backups, I'll keep them
around till they've hit their defined lifespan.

 Thanks John, Can anyone use the passwords to connect to my bacula right?
 Because I already specified the clients in the bacula-dir.conf file.

It's always a good idea to not give the keys to your house to
someone you don't know.  In this case, with the information you
gave it would be possible for someone to take control of your
director (depending on your firewall settings), which may not
have given them access to your files, but they could make your
backups disappear, or issue a restore of files from one server
to another, or restore files from a much older backup, wiping
out newer files.

 Thank John for pointing out this, I searched the documentation and it

   Job {
 Name = job_backup1
 Type = Backup
 Level = Full
 .
 .

 I don't understand the point of a default backup level. Since after all
 I will set the levels explicitly in the schedule resources. Is there
 some exceptional case when a default bacckup level is useful?

The point of the default backup level is for when you need to
run a job by hand from the console.

If you don't run anything other than Fulls (for example), you
can just define the backup level in one place.  If you run
multiple levels, you set those in the schedule, but you set
the default level in the Job, so that on the occasion you need
to run a job manually, it will select a certain level of job.

In your case, it sounds like you are most interested in
running incremental jobs by hand, so setting the default
level to Incremental makes the most sense.  In my case,
I'm generally not as worried about Incremental jobs as I am
about the failure of a Full, so my default level is Full.

Re: [Bacula-users] Is it a good idea to use bacula if Irarely havenetwork connection?

[John Lockard]

For backing up a laptop locally, bacula seems to be HUGE
overkill.  How long will you be keeping these backups?  How many
backups will you be keeping?  My guess is that you'd be better
served by a little scripting, rsync and cron.

Each day, establish a new directory by date, then hourly run rsync
to that location.
Or, Each day establish a new directory by date, create
a watcher file, then hourly run a 'find [dir] -newer
/path/to/watcher' to establish a list of files which have
changed, then 'touch /path/to/watcher'.  From the list of
files which changed, tar them to backup location.

Depending on how you want to keep files, you'll either have
a date directory (/backups/20090527) with all of the days
changed files in it, or you'll have a date directory with hourly
subdirs with the hourly changes (/backups/20090527/01, etc.).

Then, when you're back at the office, where the bacula server
is, you kick off a backup manually which will backup your
/backups directory.

  What John said.
  
  Not only does this ensure that your backup contains a valid MySQL dump,
  it also exercises the database.  That is, the act of running mysqldump
  reads every part of the databases and dumps it out.  If there is any
  'hidden' problem with the databases, chances are, you'll find out about
  it during the dump process itself.
  
  Said explanation applies to all databases IMHO.
 
 Thanks John and Dan for pointing out this for me. I will definetely do
 that.

[Bacula-users] Not automounting... why?

[John Lockard]

Hi All,

I know I don't have full information here, but don't want to send along
my full config as I'll guess that's overkill.

22-May 06:17 tibor-sd JobId 4223: Please mount Volume 100027L2 or label a new 
one for:
Job:  Belobog-Data2-Users.2009-05-22_05.15.00_35
Storage:  NEO-LTO-0 (/dev/nst0)
Pool: Radev-Diff
Media type:   LTO-2
22-May 06:19 tibor-sd JobId 4209: Please mount Volume 000152L2 or label a new 
one for:
Job:  BackupCatalog.2009-05-21_23.10.00_21
Storage:  NEO-LTO-1 (/dev/nst1)
Pool: Weekly-Tape-WH
Media type:   LTO-2

I have a Overland Neo 4000 Tape Library with 57 slots and 3 tape drives.
My config is set to Automount tapes when needed.  But, sometimes it doesn't
and just sits there, waiting for me to manually load the requested tapes.
I had two instances of that this morning.  Both tapes were in the Library
and checking which tapes Bacula thought were loaded showed both of these
tapes as being In Changer.  I was able to easily do:
  mount storage=Overland_Neo_4000 drive=0 slot=30
  mount storage=Overland_Neo_4000 drive=1 slot=1

Then my jobs continued running nicely.

What would be the reasons that occasionally Bacula won't automount tapes
which it knows are present?

Thanks for any assistance and I can provide whatever configs would help
solve this dilemma,
-John

Re: [Bacula-users] Not automounting... why?

[John Lockard]

And if I mounted a tape immediately after and also made sure
that automout was set to yes?  Whenever I unmount a tape I
always make sure to mount another in it's stead.

I'll dig through previous and current job and daemon messages
when I get back to my normal office.

 One reason is if you umounted the previous tape.

Re: [Bacula-users] run full backup in bconsole but it runs incremental after one full?

[John Lockard]

When you run a job by hand the schedule isn't involved.
Either way, for your Schedule entry you need Level=
before the work Full.

 Schedule {
   Name = test   
   Run = Level=Full at 11:50   
 }


But, your problem is that your Job doesn't have a Default
Level defined.  You'll need something like this:

 Job {
   Name = job_backup1
   Type = Backup
   Level = Full
   .
   .
 }

Also, when you post your configs, it would be a really good idea
to remove password and account information.

Okay, here's more informational information. :)

I've attached the logs sections for both jobs.

For both jobs which required me to mount a tape I had something
like the following happen.


22-May 05:16 tibor-sd JobId 4223: 3301 Issuing autochanger loaded? drive 0

So, it came across a bad tape, puked, tried to unload to slot and
failed.  It tried the unload twice (within the same minute) failed
both times, then sat there waiting for me to issue the mount command,
which succeeded.

Could it be a timing issue?

   my full config as I'll guess that's overkill.
  
   22-May 06:17 tibor-sd JobId 4223: Please mount Volume 100027L2 or label 
   a new one for:
      Job:          Belobog-Data2-Users.2009-05-22_05.15.00_35
      Storage:      NEO-LTO-0 (/dev/nst0)
      Pool:         Radev-Diff
      Media type:   LTO-2
   22-May 06:19 tibor-sd JobId 4209: Please mount Volume 000152L2 or label 
   a new one for:
      Job:          BackupCatalog.2009-05-21_23.10.00_21
      Storage:      NEO-LTO-1 (/dev/nst1)
      Pool:         Weekly-Tape-WH
      Media type:   LTO-2
  
   I have a Overland Neo 4000 Tape Library with 57 slots and 3 tape drives.
   My config is set to Automount tapes when needed.  But, sometimes it 
   doesn't
   and just sits there, waiting for me to manually load the requested tapes.
   I had two instances of that this morning.  Both tapes were in the Library
   and checking which tapes Bacula thought were loaded showed both of these
   tapes as being In Changer.  I was able to easily do:
    mount storage=Overland_Neo_4000 drive=0 slot=30
    mount storage=Overland_Neo_4000 drive=1 slot=1
  
   Then my jobs continued running nicely.
  
   What would be the reasons that occasionally Bacula won't automount tapes
   which it knows are present?
  
  
  One reason is if you umounted the previous tape.
  
  John

Re: [Bacula-users] Not automounting... why?

[John Lockard]

Release doesn't, however, eject the tape from the drive, correct?

Also, I mentioned that I will always follow my unmount command
with a mount of a different tape.

Main reasons for unmounting...  Weekly switching of backup tapes.
My full backups run (mostly) during the 1st 7 days of the month,
and after the 7th, whether a tape is full or not, I will remove
the tape from the library and hold it for offsite storage.  When
I load the library with a new batch of tapes, I'll mount a tape
in each of the tape library's drives.

 If you unmount a volume from any drive use the release command instead
 of unmount. The reason is that unmount will take the drive out of
 bacula's control and it will remain out of bacula's control until you
 issue the mount command on that drive.

  I suspect your big jobs are creating a too big sql big ( temp db ) and have 
  no more space ...
  
  You should tell mysql to write tmp table to another place with fast disk 
  and lot of space.
 
 Hi Bruno,
 
 No, I didn't have batch insert enabled.  I've now recompiled with.
 I think you may be entirely correct on the tmpdir setting in MySQL,
 I've relocated the tmpdir location.
 I've just started one of my large jobs.  We'll see if these changes
 fix my problems.
 
 Thanks,
 John

This indeed took care of my problems.  I will guess that it
was the relocation of the MySQL tmpdir, but I implemented
both changes at the same time, so can't be 100% sure.

I am running a job right now where the temp DB is around
4G in size, which would have WAY overfilled the original
location's space.

including Bangladesh , voted in favour of resolution 50 / 245 ; this included 
the five nuclear weapon States .
Bangladesh welcomes the decision of India and Pakistan , as announced by their 
Prime Ministers in the General Assembly last year , to join the CTBT .
We see this as a positive step towards ensuring peace and security in the South 
Asian region , and as conducive to fostering fruitful economic cooperation in 
the region .
Bangladeshs major concern , as a least developed country , has been the high 
financial obligations that would devolve on the States parties on account of 
the implementation of the CTBT ,
including the expenses of the Preparatory Commission for the Comprehensive 
Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization , of that organization itself , and of the 
verification regime , including the international CTBT monitoring system and 
the Provisional Technical Secretariat .
As coordinator of the least developed countries , Bangladesh has already voiced 
the concern of those countries about this matter in various relevant forums , 
including the Conference on Disarmament in Geneva .
As a party to the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development , Production 
and Stockpiling of Bacteriological ( Biological ) and Toxin Weapons and on 
Their Destruction , Bangladesh is fully aware of its responsibilities ,
and takes its obligations seriously .
By not having developed , acquired or stockpiled biological weapons , 
Bangladesh is in full compliance with the provisions of the Convention .
Full adherence to the Convention by all States would be an ultimate guarantee 
ensuring the effective elimination of biological weapons .
There is therefore a clear need for charting a credible compliance regime .
In this context , Bangladesh welcomes the ongoing work of the ad hoc group 
entrusted to negotiate a protocol to strengthen the Convention by developing 
verification and compliance mechanisms .
As for the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development , Production , 
Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on Their Destruction ,
Bangladesh was among the first to sign it , and although we have no chemical 
weapons programme or facilities , we ratified the Convention two years ago .
But ratification of the Convention will have little meaning unless the major 
chemical weapons countries join it .
We emphasize the necessity of universal adherence to the Convention , and call 
upon all States that have not done so to become parties to the Convention 
without further delay .
We also underline the importance of the early initiation of activities under 
all relevant provisions of the Convention by the Organization for the 
Prohibition of Chemical Weapons .
We call for an early convening of a fourth special session of the General 
Assembly devoted to disarmament .
It is time that the international community again reviewed the implementation 
of the Final Document of the tenth special session of the General Assembly as 
well as the outcomes of the subsequent special sessions on disarmament ,
and took stock of the international security and disarmament situation in the 
post @-@ cold @-@ war era . While nuclear disarmament should remain the highest 
priority for us ,
we have to identify the emerging challenges presented by the new era and 
formulate an agreed plan of action to deal with these in a true spirit of 
multilateralism .
My delegation believes that only a special session of the General Assembly can 
address the broad subject of disarmament , taking into account in particular 
its relationship to development , with the comprehensiveness and thoroughness 
it deserves .
In todays world , regional disarmament presents newer challenges .

The continued arms race , which is a result of unresolved problems , is a 
formidable source of threats to security and is draining considerable resources 
from many countries at the cost of investment in economic and social 
development .
It is our belief that while regional confidence @-@ building measures can go a 
long way , true regional disarmament will largely depend on understanding at 
the global level and on courageous gestures from major Powers .
Regional disarmament will not advance unless legitimate security concerns are 
addressed adequately .
In this connection , we expect that the United_Nations Regional Centre for 
Peace and Disarmament in Asia and the Pacific will be given more support and

Nope, disabling tso and tx changed nothing.

 It has the same ethernet (Intel e1000) as other servers and similar
 kernel, but is now a mostly legacy system.  Professor has ongoing
 research which disallows me from upgrading.  Unfortunately other systems
 of that same class don't have nearly as much data for backing up.
 
  What brand (machine and network adapter), what kernel, and what network
  adapter?
 
 Machine is a Dell PowerEdge 6650, Kernel is:

 The SD and DIR are the same machine.  The FD is on a different LAN

[Bacula-users] Debug levels and output.

[John Lockard]

I've just switched over from 2.4.4 to 3.0.0 so my familiarity
with new features is close to null.

Is there a way I can (maybe just for a specific job) output
to a file *everything* which is happening with a backup job?

I'd like to run a job and get a file containing which files
were backed up, or more specifically, which file was being
backed up when the backup died.

Thanks,
John

Re: [Bacula-users] Howto recover from a job being rerun around a summer time change

[John Lockard]

The time jumps at 2am, either forward or backward depending on
whether you're switching to or from DST.  Most admins I know
just completely avoid the time period from 1:00am to 3:00am.
entirely because of the Daylight Saving Time switches.

If you're going to go UTC, then you should go UTC all the way
and not worry about what local time.  That's what most DNS and
DHCP servers do.  They happily splurk out logs, not worrying
about local time.  When there's a problem, then it's up to
the lucky human to compute the local time.

 That doesn't help, because saying 2:05am local time in the config file is
 still ambiguous if the local time moves backwards by 1 hour at 3:00am.  To
 resolve this, Bacula would have to use UTC in the config file as well.
 Alternatively, it would need some non-trivial code to deal with the
 duplicate/missing local times.

[Bacula-users] Compression for certain levels of backup...

[John Lockard]

I can't see a way in 2.4.x, but maybe it's present in the
3.0.x code...  I would like to compress my Incremental backups,
but not my Differential backups or Full backups.

I keep my incremental backups on disk.  They never transition
to Tape.  My Differentials run weekly and I keep a week and a
half of Differentials before they rotate to tape.  Fulls are
run Monthly and rotate to tape 35 days after creation.

So, my Fulls and Differentials I don't want compressed because
the Tape drive will eventually take care of that with hardware
compression.  But since the Incrementals never hit tape I'd
prefer to have them compressed.

Is there a way of doing this?

[Bacula-users] Fileset available in Message Resource?

[John Lockard]

Hi All,

Looking through the manual in the Message Resource section
I don't see 'FileSet' as one of the options.  (Version 2.4.4).
Is this available but undocumented or should I be putting in
a software change request?

Reason I ask, is that an email telling me that a job for
'Server1' finished isn't nearly as informative to me as
an email saying that 'Server1:partion2' finished, especially
when I may also have jobs for 'Server1:partition3' and
'Server1:partition4'.

Thanks,
John

[Bacula-users] Updates to bacula_mail_summary.sh

[John Lockard]

Attached, please find updates to bacula_mail_summary.sh which
was in the examples/reports directory in the source distribution.
I run this script once a week, after the log has been rotated
by my systems logrotate script.

I've tweaked the display formatting quite a bit.  Rather than
displaying the full job level I've done:
 F   = Full
 D   = Differential
 I   = Incrmental
 I2F = Full (upgraded from Incremental)
 D2F = Full (upgraded from Incremental)

For completion status I've shorted these as well to:
 OK= OK
 OK-Verify = Verify OK
 OK-Warn   = Ok -- with warnings
 M-OK  = Migration OK
 M-Error   = Migration Error

I've changed the Start and End times to include the day
and month, to cover jobs that run long (more than 24 hours).

  So, if I have one job that has priority of, say, 10, then
  any job running on any other tape drive or virtual library
  will sit and wait till that higher priority job to finish
  before they'll begin.
 
  This also makes priority mostly useless for me as well.  I
  guess it would take care of situations where I'd want one
  job to finish before a secondary or tertiary job starts, but
  then I run the risk of another job postponing the 2nd and
  3rd job, which wouldn't be my intention
 I notice in the bacula sample configuration that priority is used to 
 make sure the catalog backup always runs last. In that case, the 
 behavior you describe (any other job postpones the lower-priority one, 
 regardless of storage or pool) is exactly the desired behavior.

But, priority also postpones any jobs of higher priority.
If a job, of priority 20 is currently running and you start
off several other jobs, with priorities of 10, 20 and 30, then
the only jobs which will run concurrently will be the jobs
of priority 20.  Once all the priority 20 jobs are complete,
only then will jobs of other priorities be examined and run.
In my example, after all of the P-20 jobs run, the P-10 jobs
will run, followed by the P-30 jobs.

It seems to me that priority is running as described in the
manual, but it runs counter to how you would logically expect.
If I'm running a P-20 job, and storage devices are available,
I would expect that jobs of P-20 would also be able to run,
rather than having to wait till *all* of the queued P-20 jobs
are finished.

[Bacula-users] Question about Priorities and Maximum Concurrent Jobs

[John Lockard]

Hi All,

I have a mix of disk and tape backups.  To disk I allow up to
20 jobs run concurrently.  On my tape library I have 3 tape
drives, so only allow a max of 3 jobs to run concurrently.

I run Full backups once a month, Differentials once a week
and incrementals most days of the week.  I would prefer to
give preference to a Full backup over a Diff or Incr and I'd
like to give preference to a Diff over an Incr.

So...

I set:
  Full backups to have a priority of 30
  Differential backups to have a priority of 40
  Incremental backups to have a priority of 50

I figured that since I had concurrency setup with my Max
Concurrent Jobs setting that this would happen...  If there
was a fight for a medium, with no other medium currently
free, that a Full would have preference to the medium over a
Differential which would have preference over an Incremental.

What I'm seeing is that if a Full is running on a certain
type of storage, only other Fulls will run on that storage.
If a full is running on one type of storage, other jobs
(Diffs and Incrs) will run on the other types of storage.
So, if I have a Full running to disk storage #1, then an Incr
will run to disk storage #2, but not #1.  For disk storage I
mostly understand this.

This really becomes a problem for tape storage.  I would like
to be able to run backups on the other 2 tape drives in my
library when a Full backup is running.  I have several large,
slow servers which take upwards of 36 hours to backup and
during this time I can't backup anything of a lower Priority
than that system which I'm currently backing up.

Do I have to entirely can (forget) the notion of job Priorities
except in the cases where I absolutely want a certain job to
have exclusive rights to a backup medium?

Thanks, in advance for all the help,
-John

Re: [Bacula-users] Question about Priorities and Maximum Concurrent Jobs

[John Lockard]

I stand somewhat corrected.  I was wrong in stating
that priority of a job on a certain media blocked
only jobs on that media.  It actually blocks all other
lower priority jobs from running no matter whether the
lower priority job is on the same media or not.

 So, if I have a Full running to disk storage #1, then an Incr
 will run to disk storage #2, but not #1.  For disk storage I
 mostly understand this.
 
 This really becomes a problem for tape storage.  I would like
 to be able to run backups on the other 2 tape drives in my
 library when a Full backup is running.  I have several large,
 slow servers which take upwards of 36 hours to backup and
 during this time I can't backup anything of a lower Priority
 than that system which I'm currently backing up.
 
 Do I have to entirely can (forget) the notion of job Priorities
 except in the cases where I absolutely want a certain job to
 have exclusive rights to a backup medium?
 
 Thanks, in advance for all the help,
 -John

Re: [Bacula-users] Question about Priorities and Maximum Concurrent Jobs

[John Lockard]

The minimum setting I have on Max Concurrent Jobs is on the
Tape Library and that's set to 3.  It appears that priority
trumps all, unless the priority is the same or better.

So, if I have one job that has priority of, say, 10, then
any job running on any other tape drive or virtual library
will sit and wait till that higher priority job to finish
before they'll begin.

This also makes priority mostly useless for me as well.  I
guess it would take care of situations where I'd want one
job to finish before a secondary or tertiary job starts, but
then I run the risk of another job postponing the 2nd and
3rd job, which wouldn't be my intention.

 I find this makes priorities not that useful for me.
 
 Have you thought of using concurrency and a small (2 to 5GB) spool
 file and scrap the priorities. I am unsure why you only want 1 job per
 tape drive. Are your drives really slow such that 1 client backup will
 be faster than the tape can handle?

  Just to be certain, I kicked off a few OS jobs just prior to the

  I would expect the DatabaseArchives_crank-va-3 job (11242) to run before
  the queued OS jobs (11240, 11241) but that isn't the case.  I don't know

 Ok, it looks like these ran correctly after all.  I'm a bit perplexed
 why the Director reports 11242 as being lower priority, but at least it
 worked as designed.  Extracted from llist jobs:

From the run-times, the job order was 11239, 11242, 11240, 11241.
This would make sense, it just listed 11242 last, it was waiting
for 11239 to finish, thus the waiting for higher priority jobs
message.

Re: [Bacula-users] How to force a full backup?

[John Lockard]

As a side note, I'm pretty sure you could shorten this definition to:

Schedule {
   Name = Schedule-apache
   Run = Level=Full Storage=Disk3-apache on 1,16 at 19:05
   Run = Level=Differential Storage=Disk3-apache on 8,23 at 19:05
   Run = Level=Incremental Storage=Disk3-apache on 2-7,9-15,17-22,24-31 at 19:05

 Yesterday, the full backup for one of my clients failed due to a lost 
 network connection. I notice that bacula now blindly does an incremental

 on the 2nd of the month if it failed on the 1st?

Re: [Bacula-users] REPLACE BSMTP with other mail program

[John Lockard]

If your problem is authentication or encryption then I would
suggest you check out msmtp (http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/).

This smtp client will use SSL/TLS for encrypted transport and
GSSAPI, Digest-MD5 and many more for authentication.

 My Clarkconnect server's email server component,postfix is configured to
 OUTBOUND RELAY to my ISP mail server
 Because that was the only way I could get my emails from my LAN to the

 My thinking goes if I can only put another email program in the email

 My problem will be solved, unless of course bsmtp can do that.
 
 Any pointers will be great
