Hello friends. This problem has bothered me for the whole weekend. I have an old backup I want to restore some specific files from. The backup spans three tapes, 00203, 00204 and 00205. The data is (probably) gone from the bacula MySQL database so I started out using the b-tools, bls and bextract. bls said that the data I was looking for was on tape 00204:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bacula]# bls -v -V 00204 /dev/nst0 > 00204.ls.txt (many hours pass) [EMAIL PROTECTED] bacula]# cat 00204.ls.txt | grep timra ... bls: drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2002-04-24 15:37:50 c:/www/Klubbkonton/www4/timragk/ ... But when i loaded tape 00204 and started to extract information from the tape, the listed files are not there: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bacula]# bextract -v -p -V 00204 /dev/nst0 restore-dir > restore-log-00204.txt (many hours pass, again) [EMAIL PROTECTED] bacula]# cat restore-log-00204.txt | grep timra ... Nothing. And the restore-logfile ends without errors: bextract: -rwxr-xr-x 1 magnus nobody 1050081 2005-02-16 15:50:52 restore-dir/foo bextract: drwxr-xr-x 2 magnus nobody 4096 2005-02-16 15:50:52 *none* bextract: -rwxr-xr-x 1 magnus nobody 1036460 2005-02-16 15:50:52 restore-dir/bar bextract: drwxr-xr-x 2 magnus nobody 4096 2005-02-16 15:50:52 *none* bextract: -rwxr-xr-x 1 magnus nobody 2410358 2005-02-16 15:43:40 restore-dir/gazonk bextract: Got EOF at file 56 on device /dev/nst0, Volume "00204" bextract: End of Volume at file 56 on device /dev/nst0, Volume "00204" bextract: End of all volumes. bextract: bextract Error: attribs.c:339 File size of restored file restore-dir/gazonk not correct. Original 2410358, restored 458752. 867445 files restored. Any guesses to what might differ between the bls and bextract programs? What are the "*none*" markers from the bextract program? Can the fact that this was a bextract of Windows files on a linux machine make any difference? (The documentation says no: the drive letter will just be removed) Some filenames has been changed to protect the innocent. Bacula verion 1.36.0 installed from RPM running MySQL 3.23.58 database backend on RHES 3 Update 6, if it's important. Exabyte 230D tape library using 30 DLT7000 tapes and one drive, if thats important. Any help much appreciated, since I am truly puzzled. -- Infogate AB [EMAIL PROTECTED] Storgatan 29 tel: 035-171970 Box 345 fax: 035-171979 301 08 Halmstad www.infogate.se ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the JBoss Inc.
