-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I know I've asked this before -- perhaps I can get somewhere this time.
I have two catalogs defined, let's call them Catalog and Archive. I originally defined Archive first and then Catalog (in physical order in the file). The first night I went to run my regular backup schedule, it kept telling me that all manner of volumes are missing. My assumption was that there were some processes in Bacula that were automatically using the first catalog in the file, no matter what was actually configured. At that time, I just commented out the second catalog entirely as I needed to not disturb production. I don't remember what version this was I was trying. I've come back to this, though, after I've begun to decomission old systems and replace them with new ones. I need to keep the catalogs for these tapes much longer than normal and the backups are much larger than normal. The regular catalog would become too large and cause me problems, so I decided to revive the idea of an Archive catalog. While this has been working somewhat better than before, I'm now at a point where I can't seem to make a Verify CatalogToVolume work no matter what I try. Before running the job, I do a "use" and select the proper catalog. I then run a backup and select the proper parameters. I select a client whose catalog is the Archive catalog (on a side note, it would be really nice to be able to choose the catalog at the Job level or other level than client, but I digress), and I attempt to verify. What appears to happen no matter what is that it chooses the last run of that job that is in the main catalog, from several months ago when I had no Archive catalog. This is pretty consistent behavior. I guess what I'm asking is "how can I begin to track down what is happening?" I'm starting to think this is a bug, not a misconfiguration. There are not that many people using multiple catalogs, but I think there are a few (and that Kern is among them). Any suggestions for what information I should provide to help troubleshoot? My setup is Solaris 9 SPARC, Bacula from BlastWave packages (v2.2.8), MySQL 5.0. - -- ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer II |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |novos...@umdnj.edu - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (HP-UX) iD8DBQFJWZZMmb+gadEcsb4RAupOAKDfS7nsVKkKNu4bzIfcFUbiJ5qYLwCgtWWd tbT+fv7+/yZ/BJObtPz6dSE= =QS8o -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
