I don’t think those backslashes (\) instead of normal (/) are the problem here, those in the error messages are coming from Windows, not from the fileset or bacula.
But [I think – never actually tried it] if you have a fileset resource that says drives C through W are to be included, it is to be expected that you will get an error message for each of those drives that can’t be found at backup time. Another likely side effect is that unless you include a ‘drivetype=fixed’ option, it will back up everything it finds at those letters, including a CD-ROM disc that happens to be left in the drive (and another one at the same drive letter tomorrow), a USB drive someone forgot to unplug, etc. I prefer to have _at least_ one fileset resource for each individual client, and even split them into two or more (plus as many separate jobs) in a few special cases. For general purpose machines, my filesets are often just identical copies of the same base set (just the name changed), but this allows for easy tweaking on a per-client basis as soon and as often as it becomes necessary. It also allows me to keep client, job and fileset resources together in one configuration file per client. Anything that has to be changed for a client is always in that client’s file, no change there will ever affect another client, and adding or removing a client is just a minute’s work without having to find your way (again) in one long file.

Do you mean 32 bit clients will not support on Bacula server with 64 bit? No. I thought that you had bacula client 32-bit installed on windows 64-bit. Do you get results for "status client" from bconsole? From the job output, It seems that your storage daemon do not receive response from the client and the job is cancelled because of an error in the client daemon. Could you post logs information for the jobs that presents this problem that could help us with this? Best regards, Ana Thank you, Ankush From: Ana Emília M.
