Hi all,
We're using bareos-19.2 and are backing up servers to one storage device.
We have set up a maximum of 4 concurrent running backup jobs and this works
fine.
Sometimes we need to urgently restore something while 4 backup jobs are
running and other backup jobs have been queued.
In our current setup, when I schedule a restore job, it waits until all 4
running jobs are finished, then execute the restore job and then continues
with the other queued backup jobs. Snippet of configuration:
Storage configuration in director:
Storage {
Name = store1
Address = 172.20.36.21
Password = "secret"
Device = store1
Media Type = File
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4
}
Storage {
Name = restore
Address = 172.20.36.21
Password = "secret
Device = restore
Media Type = File
}
Device definition on storage daemon:
Device {
Name = restore
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /backup/bareos-store1
LabelMedia = yes
Random Access = yes
AutomaticMount = yes
RemovableMedia = no
AlwaysOpen = no
Spool Directory = /backup/bareos-spool
Maximum Spool Size = 100g
}
Device {
Name = store1
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /backup/bareos-store1
LabelMedia = yes
Random Access = yes
AutomaticMount = yes
RemovableMedia = no
AlwaysOpen = no
Description = "Bareos store1: Almere outside openstack"
Spool Directory = /backup/bareos-spool
Maximum Spool Size = 100g
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4
}
All backup jobs use the 'store1' storage device
The restore job uses the 'restore' storage device. Restore job definition:
Job {
Name = "Restore"
Type = Restore
Client = prd-mgmt-bareosstore1
Storage = restore
Pool = daily
Fileset = "restore"
Messages = Standard
Allow Mixed Priority = yes
Priority = 5
Where = /tmp/bareos-restore
}
There is no storage defiined in any pool config (there was, but I removed
it from the pool definition and reloaded bareos director)
In the log of the restore job I still see that the 'store1' device is used,
which explains why it will wait, but why does the restore job not use the
'restore' device as I have set in the job definition?
Is it possible to create a restore job that will be executed immediately?
Thanks in advance!
