[Bacula-users] Backup of directory structures
Hi, I am looking at Bacula but the line # Files deleted after a Full save will be included in a restoration. in http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Current_State_Bacula.html under Current Implementation Restrictions makes me a little apprhensive. Is Bacula actually not able to backup Directory structures?? i.e If in a Directory dir1 I have file1, file2 file3 and I take a full backup backup1 on Day1 the I delete file2 from dir1 and take a differential backup backup2. Now I should be able to restore dir1 from backup2 with only file1 and file2 Thankyou so much kind regards Siju --- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

However, when you use bacula to manage a restore and tell it to make a complete restore it will restore all three files. If you tell bacula to only use the differential backup then, of course, file2 will not be restored. Usually you will not do this because it's baculas job to keep track which jobs and volumes it needs to restore :-) So, of course bacula saves and retrieves directory structure, but it does not keep track of deletions. The latter would require a complete compare of all directory entries to be backed up with what bacula has in its catalog and thus would be very resource intensive.

RE: [Bacula-users] Re: [Bacula-devel] GUI programs
$query = $queries[STUFF_FROM_TABLE1][SELECTED_DRIVER]; $query = sprintf($query, $parameter1, $parameter2); I'd vote for trying to do what Bacula does -- simplify the SQL and not use any non-standard MySQL SQL unless absolutely necessary. Doing that, we should be able to keep the differences to only a few lines of SQL. If Bacula can do it, then bacula-web can too (I think). If we can accomplish that then a few lines of code as Juan Luis has shown are a good solution. this approach would be very elegant for supporting additional databases (eg, DB/2, Oracle, etc). -- db --- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.

The information is there, but it is not displayed because it is compressed. Probably the simplest way to do what you want is to restore the job that has the file then do a dir on it. I wanted this information for two reasons. I'll give examples: At some time, the file size was reduced to zero. I don't know when or why, but it happened. Knowing the file size for a given backup would be useful here. I want to confirm that the backups are going as expected. Show me when this file was backed up. I know it's a database that grows daily. If the file sizes are incrementing, then I know all is well. The existing output shows the number of jobbytes and jobfiles. I think file size would be more useful to me than either of those two values. I'm also not sure why those two values might be useful to anyone considering a restore. Also, I think that output should be sorted by client, starttime desc.

It looks like your catalog dump isn't succeeding. Ensure that the
bacula-reader user has permissions to dump the catalog and if that doesn't
do it, there may be some corruption in the catalog.

Thanks, Chris -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Beren Gamble Sent: Monday, 20 June, 2005 09:37 To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Backup error on Solaris Box Bump!! :) Beren Gamble [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/15/05 11:05 am Hi Guys, I've been getting this error every time I try to backup one of our solaris boxes. It used to work, so I don't know what changed. This is the error: 15-Jun 07:33 backup1-dir: Start Backup JobId 34, Job=APLAWS3-Daily.2005-06-14_21.00.33 15-Jun 09:44 backup1-dir: APLAWS3-Daily.2005-06-14_21.00.33 Fatal error: Network error with FD during Backup: ERR=Connection timed out 15-Jun 09:44 backup1-dir: APLAWS3-Daily.2005-06-14_21.00.33 Fatal error: No Job status returned from FD. For the last week, it's gotten 6.5GB through the backup job and stopped. It happens at different times of the night and it stops at 6.5gb give or take 100mb, so I don't think it's a network issue. Could it be a corrupted file that Bacula doesn't know how to read? Is there a bacula log file on the client server that I can view to see which file it's up to when it hangs?

Re: [Bacula-users] autochanger problems.
I was having this exact problem. Try checking the permissions on both the tape and changer devices. The bacula user should be part of the Operator group, which should have permission to manipulate these two devices. -E- Nathan R.

Your problem is much more likely in mtx-changer -- either it does not have enough time to change the tape, it isn't marked as executable, or some other thing.

[Bacula-users] Restore problem
Hello, I'm running into a problem restoring a home directory on FreeBSD. I am not sure what to make of the device busy message.

I unmount and remount the tape and attempt the restore again and it still fails. Please view the message below let me know if more information is needed. What you report sounds like the tape device is busy and thus can't be used to restore. Now, it would be interesting to see the output of `status storage` and, if that indicates that the device is available, perhaps the program lsof (available hopefully under BSD, too) can tell you if the device is actually used by any other process on your system.

Kern, I don't think so, check out the later replies from Nathan. It's a permission prob, something's funky with his Ubuntu install.
