I have created a new admin job which is defined as follows:
Job {
Name = "Archive Full Backups"
Type = Admin
Enabled = Yes
Pool = Scratch
Fileset = Dummy
Storage = asgard-file
Client = asgard
Level = Full
ClientRunBeforeJob = "/etc/bacula/archive_backup"
Messages = Daemon
Priority = 20
Rerun Failed Levels = yes
Allow Duplicate Jobs = no
Cancel Queued Duplicates = yes
Schedule = "Full Backup Archive"
}
Note the Level resource is present and set to Full. I've just restarted
the Director.
When I try to run this job manually from BAT, the Level field in the RUN
JOB dialog is empty and contains no selectable values. It gets launched
as follows:
run job="Archive Full Backups" fileset="Dummy" level="" client="asgard"
pool="Full-Disk" storage="asgard-file" priority="10" when="2019-11-01
15:52:49" yes
And this causes it to fail because the level is empty.
A different admin job that runs against the same server, defined as
follows, has been working perfectly for years:
Job {
Name = "Clean Expired Volumes"
Type = Admin
Enabled = Yes
Pool = Scratch
FileSet = Dummy
Storage = asgard-file
Client = asgard
Level = Full
RunBeforeJob = "/etc/bacula/clean_volumes -v"
Messages = Daemon
Priority = 20
Rerun Failed Levels = yes
Allow Duplicate Jobs = no
Cancel Queued Duplicates = yes
Schedule = "Volume Cleanup"
}
The only differences between the two jobs are the schedule they run on,
the script they execute, and where they execute it. Does anyone have
any guesses at why the first job is being run with an empty Level?
When run from bconsole, the job runs without errors but does nothing:
*messages

Job: Archive_Full_Backups.2019-11-01_16.13.51_08
Scheduled time: 01-Nov-2019 16:13:48
Start time: 01-Nov-2019 16:13:53
End time: 01-Nov-2019 16:13:53
Termination: Admin OK
I seem to recall having run into this problem before, of ClientRun...
not working. Can anyone shed any light?
(The objective is to have an Admin job that runs after monthly Full
backups have completed which simply copies the just-created Full backup
volume file to a set of removable disks. Once I have that much working,
I'll have it *also* delete the previous month's FULL Volume to free up
space, which I will be able to copy back from the previous set of
removable disks if needed.)
