Hello all,

my configuration is as follows:

 - Director and Storage at FedoraCore 3 system, Database Mysql 4.1.12,
   Backup to Disk (2 RAIDs with 2.6TB)
 - Clients are Linux, SUNs, Windows

Bacula run fine till last weekend. Since Sunday every job fails with messages
that entries to database ("INSERT INTO FILE (......") could not be made because
of "Duplicate entries"....

So the catalog is broken. Bad, but you should be able to correct it...

First i thought that i caused this problem myself as i run a "mysqldump" of
the whole bacual-db last week and after that i reloaded id (maybe dumb, but i
heard that this could decrease size of db a little as mine is above 8GB).

I don't know if this is necessary or useful, but that might have caused the problems.


But i couldn't imagine that this causes my problems now because backup runs fine
after the dump-reload for 2 days...

so, any idea what happening here?

Have you tried the dbcheck program to repair the database?
I suggest to make sure that bacula is not running when you modify the database.

Be aware that the database check ca take very long.

You could also start with a new, completely empty catalog, and reinsert your existing volumes using bscan.


thanks a lot,
chris

P.S.: btw, would it be better to have more catalogs when size of 1 catalog is
      as big is mine is?


I don't know, but I'm quite sure that using more than one catalog can result in some difficulties with you bacula setup.
