Dear list, I want to keep a full backup on local disk and copy the last full backup to tape to take it off-site. Currently I manage about 20 servers.
To speed up the backups I have followed the documentation on "Using Multiple Storage Devices" (http://doc.bareos.org/master/html/bareos-man ual-main-reference.html#x1-22400017.2.2). However the migration (actually: copy) seems to run one job by one job instead of parallelizing the process. My copy job looks like: Job { Name = "migrate-disk-to-tape" Type = Copy Messages = Standard Pool = Full Selection Type = Volume Selection Pattern = . } My disk storage looks like: Storage { Name = File Media Type = File Address = bareos Password = "…" Device = FileStorage Device = FileStorage2 Device = FileStorage3 Device = FileStorage4 Device = FileStorage5 Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 5 } But still my job list only runs jobs one by one: Running Jobs: Console connected at 03-Jan-17 11:12 JobId Level Name Status ====================================================================== 868 Increme migrate-full-to-tape.2017-01-02_22.25.13_19 has terminated 869 Increme backup-server1-fd.2017-01-02_22.25.13_20 Dir inserting Attributes 870 Increme migrate-full-to-tape.2017-01-02_22.25.13_21 is waiting on max Job jobs 871 Increme backup-server2-fd.2017-01-02_22.25.13_22 is waiting execution 872 Increme migrate-full-to-tape.2017-01-02_22.25.13_23 is waiting on max Job jobs 873 Increme backup-server3-fd.2017-01-02_22.25.13_24 is waiting execution 874 Increme migrate-full-to-tape.2017-01-02_22.25.13_25 is waiting on max Job jobs 875 Full backup-server4-fd.2017-01-02_22.25.13_26 is waiting execution 876 Increme migrate-full-to-tape.2017-01-02_22.25.13_27 is waiting on max Job jobs 877 Full backup-server5-fd.2017-01-02_22.25.13_28 is waiting execution 878 Increme migrate-full-to-tape.2017-01-02_22.25.13_29 is waiting on max Job jobs […] My device status: Device "FileStorage" (/srv/qnap) is mounted with: Volume: Full-0006 Pool: Full Media type: File Total Bytes Read=4,254,372,864 Blocks Read=65,947 Bytes/block=64,512 Positioned at File=11 Block=1,378,210,138 == Device "FileStorage2" (/srv/qnap) is not open. == Device "FileStorage3" (/srv/qnap) is not open. == Device "FileStorage4" (/srv/qnap) is not open. == Device "FileStorage5" (/srv/qnap) is not open. == ==== Used Volume status: Full-0006 on device "FileStorage" (/srv/qnap) Reader=1 writers=0 reserves=0 volinuse=1 Volume: Full-0006 no device. volinuse= 0 Volume: Full-0007 no device. volinuse= 0 ==== Can anyone give me a clue how to improve the performance of the migration? Otherwise it will take days every time. Maybe it's the "waiting on max Job jobs" but I'm now aware of any low "Max …" setting. Thanks for your time.
