[Bacula-users] Bacula volume names problem
Hello List:
I have a problem that is repeating in 3 servers I run bacula.
When I change Bacula-dir configuration and restart bacula all volumes names
gets crazzy.
Here is my configuration:
Client {
Name = mamute-fd
Address = mamute.italo.br
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password =
}
Job {
Name = ArquivosOracle
Level = Full
Type = Backup
Client = mamute-fd
FileSet = ArquivosOracle-fs
Schedule = 1xDia
Storage = ArquivosOracle-st
Messages = Standard
Pool = Quinzenal
Write Bootstrap = /usr/local/bacula/var/bacula/working/ArquivosOracle.bsr
Client Run Before Job = /etc/rc.d/oracle stop
Client Run After Job = /etc/rc.d/oracle start
}
FileSet {
Name = ArquivosOracle-fs
Include {
Options {
signature = MD5
compression = GZIP
}
File = /opt/oracle/oradata/dbwae
File = /opt/oracle/admin/dbwae
File = /opt/oracle/product/9ir2/dbs
}
}
Storage {
Name = ArquivosOracle-st
Address = grilo
SDPort = 9103
Password = PUbLZrsWyV2DSzvnnv9+Q83VDXc/OYZ3RWn+7QSOh0Kf
Device = ArquivosOracle-dev
Media Type = File
}
Pool {
Name = Quinzenal
Pool Type = Backup
Auto Prune = yes
Use Volume Once = Yes
Volume Retention = 15 days
Label Format =
$Job-${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}-${Day:p/2/0/r}-${Hour:p/2/0/r}:
${Minute:p/2/0/r}
}
Schedule {
Name = 1xDia
Run = at 1:00
}
So I changed dir configuration. Add a client or altered some configurantion in
this job os its related section. After restart bacula de jobs names starts
look like this:
-rw-r- 1 root root 440960652 Jul 18 01:04 ArquivosOracle-2005-07-18-01:00
-rw-r- 1 root root 428530101 Jul 13 01:04 Email-2005-05-08-09:49
-rw-r- 1 root root 429478237 Jul 14 01:04 Email-2005-05-10-10:21
-rw-r- 1 root root 426506401 Jul 12 01:04 Email-2005-05-21-01:24
-rw-r- 1 root root 432217335 Jul 15 01:04 Email-2005-06-29-01:04
-rw-r- 1 root root 440026209 Jul 16 01:04 Email-2005-06-30-01:04
-rw-r- 1 root root 441010580 Jul 17 01:04 Email-2005-07-01-01:04
-rw-r- 1 root root 410121506 Jul 20 01:04 Email-2005-07-04-01:04
-rw-r- 1 root root 410850310 Jul 21 01:04 Email-2005-07-05-01:04
Te first line is the correct name of the volume. But The file names just
changes. With no visible reason for me. Do I have to run any command in
bconsole after changing configuration on bacula director?
Email is the name of another Job of mine. So it seams to me it's naming the
volume after another job.
If anyone whishs to know, when a restore the backup from volume:
-rw-r- 1 root root 410121506 Jul 20 01:04 Email-2005-07-04-01:04
it restores oracle datas correctly.
Thanks for any help.

where is th error?
The only problem I can see is your LTO-changer device.
The tape itself is ready to be used, its just not there to be used.
Did you configure your SD to use an autochanger?
Our example from the -sd.conf
Device {
Name = TapeStorage
Media Type= LTO
Archive Device = /dev/tape
AutoChanger = yes
Changer Device = /dev/changer
Changer Command = /etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d

Re: [Bacula-users] Re: [Bacula-devel] Severe problem: director hangs in production system
Hello Volker, Please remind me what Linux distro and what kernel version you are using. If you are on a 2.4 kernel, then the problem is 99% for sure the /lib/tls bug that is mentioned in the manual. The manual suggests two solutions -- I prefer to zap the /lib/tls library by moving it to /lib/tls-broken If this is on a 2.6 kernel, you will need to recompile with debug symbols turned on and re-run it. The backtrace you got looks a bit strange to me because there are only 3 threads reported, and generally in the Directory, there are a lot more threads 5-10 depending on what is going on.

complaining:

Please use the label command to create a new Volume for:

So I created a pool WeeklyPool2 and moved tape2 to that pool and changed
the job accordingly. After this the jobs are really running

[Bacula-users] Autochanger Question
Hi Guys, We've got a pretty advanced tape library (Adic i2000) which is mostly for backing up our SAN, but it's partitioned so one tape unit and 6 slot and 6 mail slots are assigned to Bacula. I thought it was working ok until I filled up the first tape. For some reason, the tape it filled up is now in the other partition which is assigned to backing up the SAN. I'm not really sure where this error is occuring. What does bacula usually do once a tape has filled up? Does it put it in the mail slot or back in the normal slot, then grab the next tape? Or do you think this is a library problem, where it screwed up and put it in the wrong slot?

RE: [Bacula-users] Ver 1.36.3 does it require PostgreSQL 8?
Yes, the 1.36.3 ebuild currently in portage runs a catalog version check to see that your catalog db version is correct. This version number is independent of your db server version (mysql, postgresql, sqlite) and is described in the bacula manual online. The catalog db version checking is likely to be removed from these ebuilds in the future since the 1.36.3-r1 ebuild was committed blindly and removed a lot of things including this version check. It is arguable whether the catalog version check belongs in the ebuild, so I won't go into it here, but I'm hoping to get the bacula ebuilds cleaned up some more once the maintainership change is made and if I can keep developers from fixing ebuilds blindly like that. While I'm on the subject of Bacula and Gentoo, I don't know if I'll have time to get the current development versions into portage before Kern releases 1.38, and if that turns out to be the case then I will probably just try to get 1.38 pushed into portage ASAP and skip 1.37 unless any objections to this are noted. To answer your question about the second server, if you want to have two different directors with different catalogs and different versions of both the director and the catalog, you can simply create a second catalog database on your database server. For example, database name bacula-1.34 for the 1.34 director, and database name bacula-1.36 for the 1.36 director and then configure the directors to access their respective databases. If you want both directors to use the same catalog then you will need to upgrade the 1.34 director to 1.36 and perform the catalog version upgrade on it as well (this is documented in the online manual).

Theron Original [file size], restored [large, bogus file size]. Theron Comparing the restores against the live data, I see that the restored Theron files have lots of random garbage inserted/appended to them. Theron However, when I manually find the jobIDs of the full/diffs/incrs and Theron restore them individually with restore option 3, there is no corruption Theron and the files all seem fine.

Theron Most of the corrupt files are older than the last full; Perhaps there's Theron something in the diff/incr jobs that corrupts the files from the full Theron job.

Re: [Bacula-users] Config error: Keyword EnableVSS not permitted in this re
Hello,
I've just released winbacula-vss-1.37.31.exe to the Win32-beta area on Source
Forge.
This version corrects the problem that you noted below. You need only specify
File = c: for the VSS snapshot to be taken. In addition, I've added VSS
on the status output in front of each Job output when the job is being backed
up by VSS. This is in addition to the VSS on the signon line, which
indicates that the FD is VSS enabled.
There are a good number of reasons why a particular backup cannot be made with
VSS, and generally they are reported in the Job output. However, as is
normal for new code, some of the fail conditions may not report correctly.
I've corrected at least one and as time goes on, we will correct them all.
Please be aware of one restriction on VSS backups: you may run only one job at
a time any given client. You may run multiple simultaneous jobs, but only
one that uses VSS in any given client. I suspect that few if any of you run
multiple simultaneous backups in a single client, so hopefully this will
create no problems.
Thanks for reporting this bug.

I figured out what the issue is! When backing up an entire drive, an

FileSet {

Enable VSS = yes

Adding a * to c:/ solves the issue.

I think I see the problem, you're trying to backup an XP system. XP
is only a VSS client, it doesn't actually do Shadow Copies itself,
that's a Server 2003 thing. Microsoft bundled the VSS client with SP2
so that you wouldn't have to install it separately.

does work against out 2003 server, but as soon as it hits Debian I
will.

I have a scheduled job that runs on my Exchange server that runs a backup of the Information Stores to a network share, then Bacula does it's thing, ignoring the Exchange files. --Brian -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Christopher Rasch-Olsen Raa Sent: Friday, July 22, 2005 15:59 To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Bacula-users] Bacula and Microsoft Exchange on Windows Hi list, Have any of you run into any problems doing backups of the Exchange-system for windows?

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula and Microsoft Exchange on Windows
Hello, I suspect that Exchange is a VSS (Volume Shadow Copy) aware application, and if so, it will be correctly backed up in a totally consistent state if you use Bacula 1.37.30 with winbacula-vss-1.37.31. They can be found in the beta release section of Bacula on Source Forge.

Oh! Nice one. :) I think I'll go for that solution myself.

Re: [Bacula-users] Restore Error : zlib problem ?
In the past, I have noticed several cases where Bacula does not work correctly with zlib if you do not build Bacula with the version that is loaded on your system. I guess they change some of the internal structures defined in the header files in an incompatible way. I suggest trying recompiling Bacula from scratch. Most likely it will clear up your zlib problems. However, you also seem to have a tape read problem (checksum mismatch). This may be due to bad media or just a dirty read head on your tape drive. Try cleaning. On Friday 22 July 2005 17:12, Yann Cézard wrote: Hi, Since today, I noticed that severals (perhaps all ?) my volumes produces errors when restoring all the files.

So here are my questions : - is there a tool to test all my volumes ? (I still can do with something like bextract VolumeName /dev/null | grep Error but perhaps there are already something cleaner to test volumes !?) - as errors mentionned Uncompression error, is the error could have been introduced when I upgraded my zlib (last tuesday) ? I'm running Bacula 1.36.3 from RPM on FC3. Can the zlib's upgrade have broken something with bacula ? The problem occurs on volumes created after AND before the zlib upgrade... Thanks for any help !
