Yeah, I can understand why but even if we put away all the usual cloud
privacy issues it's completely not feasible for me since I'm setting up
my home backup system and at home I have only a 10/1Mbps ADSL line.
So imagine uploading few terabytes of data using 1Mbps uplink :-D
That's why I'm thinking about "offlineable" media.
Best regards,

Yes, I do have statically mounted volume and no off-site backup since
i do not need it. Even if this changes i would rather think about S3
instead of removable media.

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,

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
RandomAccess = yes
Label Media = yes
}
Storage {
Name = bareos-sd
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4
# remove comment from "Plugin Directory" to load plugins from
specified directory.
# if "Plugin Names" is defined, only the specified plugins will
be loaded,
# otherwise all storage plugins (*-sd.so) from the "Plugin
Directory".
#
# Plugin Directory = "/usr/lib64/bareos/plugins"
# 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.
