Thanks for the config but if I'm not mistaken it won't let me do what I
mainly wanted to achieve with vchanger - it won't let me plug in and out
external drives. That's the whole point of using vchanger for me so I
can take one external disk and move it somewhere offline or even
off-site, Your storage seems to depend on a directory permanently
mounted on the SD.
Best regards,
Mariusz

Hi,
I have tried to start vchanger long time ago but i found it a bit too
complex. Since then i am running following configuration:
Autochanger {
Name = local-sd
Changer Device = /dev/null
Changer Command = ""
Device = drive-0, drive-1, drive-2, drive-3
}
Device {
Name = drive-0
Device Type = File
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage
Automatic Mount = yes
Always Open = yes
RemovableMedia = no
RequiresMount = no
Autochanger = yes
Drive Index = 0
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
RandomAccess = yes
Label Media = yes
}
Device {
Name = drive-1
Device Type = File
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage
Automatic Mount = yes
Always Open = yes
RemovableMedia = no
RequiresMount = no
Autochanger = yes
Drive Index = 1
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
RandomAccess = yes
Label Media = yes
}
Device {
Name = drive-2
Device Type = File
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage
Automatic Mount = yes
Always Open = yes
RemovableMedia = no
RequiresMount = no
Autochanger = yes
Drive Index = 2
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
RandomAccess = yes
Label Media = yes
}
Device {
Name = drive-3
Device Type = File
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage
Automatic Mount = yes
Always Open = yes
RemovableMedia = no
RequiresMount = no
Autochanger = yes
Drive Index = 3
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1

Label Media = yes
}
Storage {
Name = bareos-sd
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4
# remove comment from "Plugin Directory" to load plugins from

# if "Plugin Names" is defined, only the specified plugins will be

# Plugin Names = ""
}
Pool {
Name = default
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = no # No recycling, volumes used once
and then truncated
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Action On Purge = Truncate
File Retention = 70 days
Job Retention = 70 days
Volume Retention = 70 days
# Use Volume Once = yes
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Label Format = "default-${JobId}"
Storage = local-sd
}
I belive this setup is a bit tricky but it works perfectly for me. The
trick is to have only one job per volume and having number of jobs
limited on SD level to the total sum of devices. I am not sure but i
think it was set that way in order to avoid having the same volume
opened by multiple jobs simultanously.
Hope this can be helpful but feel free to correct me if you find this
configuration to be a total mess.
PS. It is possible that this setup require a helper script in order to
have expired volume files (and jobs) correctly removed.
Kind Regards,
Bartłomiej

Hello.
I'm trying to set up an environment with removable disks managed
by vchanger.
I managed to install vchanger, I created the media files but I
cannot seem to be able to make bareos see my virtual autochanger.
And I'm a bit stuck.
Whenever I try to do "update slots" I'm getting the 3999 error.
Relevant parts of my config:
# cat /etc/vchanger/vchanger.conf
Storage Resource = vchanger-1
User = bareos
Group = bareos
Logfile = /var/log/vchanger/vchanger-1.log
Work Dir = /var/spool/vchanger/vchanger-1
Log Level = 7
Magazine = /srv/backupstor/252f8c87-02bd-4509-aa63-fa2fe8ee105d
bconsole config = /etc/bareos/bconsole.conf
# cat bareos-sd.d/autochanger/vchanger1
Autochanger {
Name = vchanger-1
Device = vchanger-1-0
# Changer Command = "/usr/local/bin/vchanger -u bareos -g
bareos %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Command = "/usr/local/bin/vchanger %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Device = /etc/vchanger/vchanger.conf
}
# cat bareos-sd.d/device/vchanger1.conf
Device {
Name = vchanger-1-0
DriveIndex = 0
Autochanger = yes
Device Type = File
Media Type = Offsite-File
Label Media = no
Random Access = yes
Removable Media = yes
Automatic Mount = yes
Archive Device = /var/spool/vchanger/vchanger-1/0
}
# cat bareos-dir.d/storage/vchanger-1.conf
Storage {
Name = vchanger-1-changer
Address = backup1
Password = "edited"
Device = vchanger-1
Media Type = Offsite-File
Autochanger = yes
}
# cat bareos-dir.d/pool/Offsite-eSATA.conf
Pool {
Name = Offsite-eSATA
Storage = vchanger-1-changer
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 4 weeks
Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
Volume Use Duration = 2 hours
Maximum Volume Bytes = 42949672960
}
Oh, and btw, if I try to run bareos-sd with high debug level
(somewhere above 500), it segfaults on any command.
I'm using bareos on Raspberry Pi on Raspbian.
