Hi Ronan,

Did you add some indices manually to your mySQL db? Looks like the first
(concurrent) jobs run fast until the first finishes and updates the DB.

If the DB structure is still unmodified since Installation, this could be
the problem - but I'm not sure.

These changes can (should) be made after installation of 1.36.3:

alter table File add index (JobId, PathId, FilenameId);
alter table File add index (PathId);
alter table Path drop Index Path; 
alter table Path add Index (Path(255));

Please report back if this solved your problems.

Bye
Roland

Betreff: [Bacula-users] Question Bacula/MySQL/Large backups

Hi all,

        I run rather large backups, about 70+ servers, 1 Full a month, rest
daily incrementals.  All disk -> disk backups.  At the time of full backups
I can be pulling anywhere from 1.5-3TB of total data from the servers.

        Backups start out great, pulling a few megs a piece from about 8
boxes at a time.  The problem is after about 12 hours of running, MySQL
shoots up to 99% CPU, which is not really a problem because it is SMP, and
box is still responsive.  I check the processes on mysql and it is
responding to queries quickly still.  Backup speed however drops to about
20k/sec from each box.  It continues to run, but after awhile the director
stops responding altogether and all the bacula process show as sleeping.  I
am forced to restart bacula and lose the backups that were unfinished.

        Not sure if this is because of MySQL, which seems to be operating
fine, or maybe bacula, RAM, or what.  Below is what the server is.  I can
supply configs or whatever may be needed.  If anyone has any suggestions or
a similar setup that had the same type of problem and was resolved, it would
be appreciated.

Server:
Debian Woody
Kernel 2.4.26
P4 2.8 HT
1G RAM
2G Swap
Intel S875WP MB

Thanks for any help,

-Ronan
