[Bacula-users] Different Pools on Autochanger Archive-Pools
Hello all, a month ago i've posted some questions concerning autochangers and archive pools, but never got any hint nor i found any answers to this in the list archives or the handbook. Now, because time is slipping away i'm about to cancel any further use of bacula and use homebrew scripts to automate the backup. 1. Is it possible to assign different volumes in an autochanger to different pools, and thus use automatic labelling. (eg. 3 Slots for incremental, 2 slots for archiving etc). 2. Are disk-to-disk-to-tape backups jet implemented ? 3. How about archive pools ? Thanks a lot in advance, Daniel PS: This sould not be misunderstood: I do not want to accuse anyone, because he/she did not answer me, i'm very glad about bacula, but now I need to implement a running backup system and i'm not sure, if bacula can satisfy our needs. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

As long as your media type allows such a long retention (they say LTO-2 does..) this should be okay for simple archiving purposes. However this is still a bit far from a real archiving solution. -Sebastian --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

Hi Martin,
Thanks for your help.
When i comment the Autochanger section in the SD conf it works.
so i am a bit lost on why my autochanger section crash the sd daemon
here is my sd conf who cause the problems :
#
# Devices supported by this Storage daemon
# To connect, the Director's bacula-dir.conf must have the
# same Name and MediaType.
#
Autochanger {
Name = Autochanger
Device = Drive-1
Changer Command = /etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d

Device {
Name = Drive-1
Media Type = 8mm
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
Hardware end of medium = No;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = Yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
Alert Command = sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'
}
That is strange -- I tried your settings above in 1.38.5 on FreeBSD 4.9
and it
started without problems. Maybe a compiler bug?
__Martin
Yes very strange.
is the way i declare my autochanger device is wrong ?
It looks OK to me, unless you have somethign else in the conf that breaks it.
what sort of compiler bugs you are thinking about.
Nothing in particular, but I don't see how it can crash on the line that gdb
reported.

[Bacula-users] Volumes/MaxVolumeJobs/RecycleOldest
Hi all Can I just confirm something here before I rush headlong into the initial config of my pools/volumes at home: If I want a pool with three tapes, 1 client, each client backup will use less than 1 tape, the jobs are run manually (not scheduled), and I want to only have one run on a tape, can I set the pool attributes to include: Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 Recycle Oldest Volume = yes The way I see it, this will backup to tape 1, mark it as used, so the next backup using this pool will use tape 2 at next run, mark that one used, then tape 3 the run after that. Is that correct? If I am running the job manually (and infrequently sometimes), what purge time should I have on the pool? If I want to run my job for a 4th time, and its less than the purge time for the pool, will it fail, or will it just purge the oldest volume, and use that instead? Or would it be better for me to use: Purge Oldest Volume = yes instead of Recycle Oldest Volume = yes Also, for my work install for bacula, is there a way of doing this, but for entire scheduled jobs? So one weeks full backup will get written to the tapes, but once that one single schedule (with multiple clients) is complete, next weeks full backup will start on the next tape, and ignore the previous tape? Is that possible? Many thanks for your help, it is greatly appreciated. Steve --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

RE: [Bacula-users] evaluating backup software
Thank you, Wolfgang, you answered my question. I know you didn't mean to do so, but you did. You've done better by accident than anyone else on this list did on purpose. I am still somewhat puzzled that no one bothered to just say Yes when I asked if Bacula could 'span tapes'. It's a simple word, easy to spell and usually a really nice word to say to someone (of course, it really depends on just what it is you're being asked to say 'yes' to ...) so I don't understand. But then, there are so MANY things I don't understand (life, women, the national attraction for GW) I guess I'll just add it to the list. Thanks, again.

Also, can you redo the above and also post the output of

Re: [Bacula-users] Problem to start Sd
Sorry to come into the conversation late, I may have missed some of the
more obvious thoughts, but:
Autochanger {
Name = Autochanger
Device = Drive-1
Changer Command = /etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d
Changer Device = /dev/sg2
}
Have you tried changing the names of the Autochanger and the tape
device? Calling your Autochanger err... Autochanger might be the
culprit (maybe not... it just looks odd).

in the : mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d
what is %c %o %S %a %d ?
the mtx-changer can be the prob , i compile MTX i will try to replace

Hi Martin,
Thanks for your help.
When i comment the Autochanger section in the SD conf it works.
so i am a bit lost on why my autochanger section crash the sd daemon
here is my sd conf who cause the problems :

# same Name and MediaType.

Autochanger {
Name = Autochanger

AlwaysOpen = Yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
Alert Command = sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'
}
That is strange -- I tried your settings above in 1.38.5 on FreeBSD
4.9
and it
started without problems. Maybe a compiler bug?
__Martin
Yes very strange.
is the way i declare my autochanger device is wrong ?
It looks OK to me, unless you have somethign else in the conf that

hello,
We have been having many of our backups failing due to a network timeout
error (Network error on data channel. ERR=Operation timed out).
If I do them one at a time they work fine, so I am leaning towards believing
that this may be an issue with running too many concurrent jobs.
Hard to say for me. I'd rather suspect that either you have a network
problem, so that somewhere in between a switch drops packets, or a
firewall drops connections because it thinks a host is being flooded.
If you've got a managed switch, investigating there might reveal
something. And check (or, for testing purposes) turn off all firewalls
between your hosts.
Else I'd simply suggest to observe the existing connections and traffic
on them, for example using iptraf, and see if connections are closed
when there's heaviy traffic.
Basically, Bacula can handle multiple connections quite well, but I
never tried with more than five or so jobs running simultaneously. More
is not reasonable given my hardware :-)

Is /opt/local/svc/support-files/bacula-fd a script? Maybe its contents will

script /opt/local/svc/support-files/bacula-fd is the same exact script
that would have been installed in the /etc/init.d directory during the
make install-autostart-fd. It's just moved to a different location. A
quick look at this page http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/selfheal/
would explain far better then I could why.
Basically sun is moving services from /etc/init.d and the rc*.d
directories and putting them under the control of a daemon that is
responsible for ensuring that a particular service is running.
All of the above output was obtained by starting and then stopping
bacula-fd manually from the bacula install directory (/opt/local)
independent of svc control. Svc calls this script to start, restart, or
stop bacula. When stopping bacula svc gets a return value thats not 0 so
the service is put into maintenance mode and not restarted as it should
be requiring operator intervention to clear the status of the service.
This is the script responsible for starting and stopping bacula:

I appreciate your time on this issue, and I hope this is a more clear
explanation about what's happening.
Thanks, Robert.

solve the problem). Having written one myself for MySQL I believe it

Thanks, we're getting nearer. This clears up the confusion about which exit

Is /opt/local/svc/support-files/bacula-fd a script? Maybe its contents will
reveal why it exits with 208?

[Bacula-users] Large Bacula databases and bacula's dbcheck
Hello, I'm wondering what the largest known Bacula database in existence is. This is mostly a curiosity point. The actual problem follows. Our Bacula db is 13 GB and we recently tried to run (Bacula's) dbcheck on it. However, it ran for 2+ days and meanwhile, our backups weren't running meanwhile so we had to stop (abort, whatever terminology you prefer) the process. We're running MySQL 3.23 and Bacula 1.36.3 We weren't originally having any issues with the database or Bacula, but I've read that Bacula dbcheck should be run from time to time (every 6 months is recommended for some of the checks). It didn't appear from the output (ie: no orphaned or duplicate records found) that the database had been modified up to the point it was stopped. Of course we did a dump of the db before starting dbcheck but it took an equally long time to restore (ie: mysql bacula baculabackup.sql). Can anyone provide more information about maximum bacula db sizes, exactly what Bacula's dbcheck does, how often (or if at all) it should be run for maintenance purposes, particularly if there are no issues with the database to begin with (if it ain't broke don't fix it), and what condition it is likely to leave the db in if it is aborted? Is it better to just use just the standard mysql utilities to maintain the db?

Anyway, setting them [tapes in a pool] to status Archive either
manually or using a script should do what you need - it marks them as
unavailable for Bacula, and you can easily track them in the catalog.

I'll do it that way, but I'm still curious, why this option is marked

bacula honors this flag and won't overwrite my tapes by accident.
I don't think that the Archive flag is intended for the use you want.
I think that it's supposed to indicate that the volume entry will
be removed from the catalog when the volume is unmounted.
I don't recall where I saw it and I just searched the manual and
couldn't find it so I could be wrong about this. However, to be on the
safe side, I don't think that you should use it. Instead use settings
similar to the following for your archive pool.
Pool {
Name = MY_ARCHIVE
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = no
Auto Prune = no
Volume Retention = 30 years
Accept Any Volume = yes
}
Also, in the definition of the client, set Auto Prune = no. This will
ensure that job and file-entries are not removed from the catalog.
If you use the same client for non-archive jobs, you can specify
Prune Jobs = yes and Prune Files = yes in the job-resource.
Hope this helps,
Kelvin

First, when a job runs and a .bsr file is created by the job if one is already in the location specified in the job definition is it overwritten or appended to? That is, as far as I know, much more complicated. Bootstrap files are always completely overwriten when a full backup happens. An incremental backup only appends to the bootstrap file. Differential backups should be the most interesting case: As far as I understand, in this case all data from previous differential or incremental backups should be purged from the bootstrap file, the last full backup would be kept, and the data for the new differential backup would be appended. (Technically, I suspect that re-creating the whole file whenever it's written is the easier solution, but what I described *should* be what you see when you observe the files contents.) All as far as I know, recalling some of Kern's mails, and without actually verifying, either in the code or the manual. And second, if they're overwritten is it possible to have a filename like systemname-formatteddate.bsr? No, not as far as I know. Given the above, it would not be very useful to store a bootstrap file for an incremental backup only. It would be nice, though, to have the usual variable expansion working in the bootstrap file definition, so you only define it once like %c.bsr (assuming %c would expand to the client name) in the default settings. Thanks. Always a pleasure :-) By the way - why would you want bootstrap files for each job, independant of each other? I understand that these files are the quickest way to recover in a real desaster situation, i.e. without catalog. But in that case you want full restores, I'd say...

Hmm. As you mention below: If it ain't broke... dbcheck is, assuming the catalog itself is in a coherent state, mainly useful to remove records you don't need anymore. This might be entries in the File and Path tables (although I wouldn't expect to have many orphaned entries there unless you remove a whole class of similar machines from backups) and job records from restore jobs. I had cases where there was something to be cheked in the catalog, but that always had two reasons: Either a database server crash while a backup job was running (not very common, no worries) or when I played around in the catalog manually ;-) It didn't appear from the output (ie: no orphaned or duplicate records found) that the database had been modified up to the point it was stopped. Good. Of course we did a dump of the db before starting dbcheck but it took an equally long time to restore (ie: mysql bacula baculabackup.sql). Hmm. I never tried such a database reload with a really big DB, but I think there are some hints in the MySQL manual. IIRC, you can turn of indexing operations during such an operation, and only later rebuild the indexes, which is said to improve performance a lot. Of course, there's a downside: uniqueness checking might not work in that case, so you better only try it when you know your data to be ok. There might be other options, but I'm not sure if they were implemented in the version you run: --extended-insert is one of those possibly helpful options, and -disable-keys is disabling indexes during reloading the database, but requires MySQL 4 and works with MyISAM tables only. --add-locks might also do some good. Can anyone provide more information about maximum bacula db sizes, No idea. All the ones I know from experience are smaller than yours is. exactly what Bacula's dbcheck does, Not more information than what I wrote above, and what is in the manual. how often (or if at all) it should be run for maintenance purposes, particularly if there are no issues with the database to begin with (if it ain't broke don't fix it), I don't see any real reason for it except that it might free up some unused space. But hard disks are cheap today :-) and what condition it is likely to leave the db in if it is aborted? It shouldn't do any harm. After all, it *should* only touch records for deletion which aren't referenced in the catalog anymore, which wouldn't be missed. It doesn't renumber any IDs (which might break the relations in the catalog in case it crashed), and it only uses the database API, so I'd say there's nothing to fear. Is it better to just use just the standard mysql utilities to maintain the db? Is there a difference? There is at least one difference: The database tools can't decide if any row of data in the catalog database is still necessary or should be deleted, and it can't show inconsistencies there. On the other hand, with the database tools (mainly mysqldump) and perhaps a little scripting it should be possible to re-number all IDs. Well, coming to the point: It might be possible that you're missing indexes you need for faster database operation. There were versions where not everything that is considered now was created, and it's even possible that you removed some index to allow greater day-to-day speed. You might compare with what I have in the File table (usually, the biggest table in the catalog): mysql show index from File; +---+++--+-+---+-+--++--++-+ | Table | Non_unique | Key_name | Seq_in_index | Column_name | Collation | Cardinality | Sub_part | Packed | Null | Index_type | Comment | +---+++--+-+---+-+--++--++-+ | File | 0 | PRIMARY|1 | FileId | A | 12523154 | NULL | NULL | | BTREE | | | File | 1 | JobId |1 | JobId | A | 398 | NULL | NULL | | BTREE | | | File | 1 | PathId |

Anyway, setting them [tapes in a pool] to status Archive either
manually or using a script should do what you need - it marks them as
unavailable for Bacula, and you can easily track them in the catalog.

I don't think that the Archive flag is intended for the use you want.
I think that it's supposed to indicate that the volume entry will be
removed from the catalog when the volume is unmounted.
Oops... that would be not so good with my suggestion... still, I wonder
why that would be the intended use. Admittedly, my understanding of what
an archived volme is doesn't have to be coherent with what Kern thinks.
I don't recall where I saw it and I just searched the manual and
couldn't find it so I could be wrong about this. However, to be on the
safe side, I don't think that you should use it. Instead use settings
similar to the following for your archive pool.
Pool {
Name = MY_ARCHIVE
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = no
Auto Prune = no
Volume Retention = 30 years
Accept Any Volume = yes
}
Sure, you can do that, but it's got two problems: First, you need to
duplicate the pool. Then, when you wna to reuse the archived volumes
you've got to change the pool they belong to.
These are the main reasons why I thought the volume attribute Archive
would best be used to mark valid volumes which shall not be pruned and
should only be requested by Bacula during a restore.
Also, in the definition of the client, set Auto Prune = no. This will
ensure that job and file-entries are not removed from the catalog.
If you use the same client for non-archive jobs, you can specify
Prune Jobs = yes and Prune Files = yes in the job-resource.
One more thing to duplicate... I guess we'll have to nag Kern to
implement archiving ;-)
Or, of course, we discuss this until we reach consensus on how archiving
should work, and how it can be implemented. The -devel list would be the
better place for that, once we know what people *want*. Apart from that,
I think there was a discussion where that subject - Archiving - was touched.
The ongoing development of job migration makes that a necessity, in my
opinion, because migrating from regular pools to archiving ones might be
one of the main uses of job migration. I my opinion, of course.
Hope this helps,
Kelvin

Where do regexp come into play if I give the exact path? Excuse the case it is a stupid question... Ok, keep in mind that this is not verified... During a restore, you have to select a fileset. Includes and excludes from that fileset are sent to the FD, which, in your case, complains about the regular expressions. IIRC, that fileset does not have to be the one you used for the backup, so you can use your usual windows client fileset, for example. Simply look up your restore job template in the director configuration, and see if the fileset referenced therein uses regular expressions. If it does, and another fileset without REs works as expected, I'm right :-) when trying to restore to a samba share I had this: Error: Win32 data stream not supported on this Client. As I didn't use the portable mode I understand it. Well, as far as I know the current version supports restores of non-portable data to unix/linux FDs, so that might offer an emergency mode of recovery: Build the SD and accompanying tools from version 1.38.5. No need to install or actually use them on a production system - simly try using the bls and bextract utilities to get to your data. Will try it. And, did it work? Arno Restores on Linux client work without Problems Can anybody point me to the problem? Problem is hopefully described above. the solution might be to choose another fileset for the restores, for example one that simply includes / and doesn't exclude anything.

because it workl fine when i remove autochanger section :(
Possibly.
So now what next ?
what i can do to be able use the autochanger ?
in the : mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d
what is %c %o %S %a %d ?
the mtx-changer can be the prob , i compile MTX i will try to replace
mtx-changer by mtx but need to know what the arg mean.
I think the only way is to either track it down via gdb or annotate the source
of init_autochangers with printfs to find out why it crashes. Sorry, I don't
have time to devote to that.

Hi Martin,
Thanks for your help.
When i comment the Autochanger section in the SD conf it works.
so i am a bit lost on why my autochanger section crash the sd daemon
here is my sd conf who cause the problems :
#
# Devices supported by this Storage daemon
# To connect, the Director's bacula-dir.conf must have the
# same Name and MediaType.
#
Autochanger {
Name = Autochanger
Device = Drive-1
Changer Command = /etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d
Changer Device = /dev/sg2
}
Device {
Name = Drive-1
Media Type = 8mm
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
Hardware end of medium = No;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = Yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
Alert Command = sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'
}
That is strange -- I tried your settings above in 1.38.5 on FreeBSD 4.9
and it
started without problems. Maybe a compiler bug?
__Martin
Yes very strange.
is the way i declare my autochanger device is wrong ?
It looks OK to me, unless you have somethign else in the conf that breaks
it.
what sort of compiler bugs you are thinking about.
Nothing in particular, but I don't see how it can crash on the line that
gdb
reported.
__Martin

Thanks, we're getting nearer. This clears up the confusion about which exit
status is 208: it is from the bacula-fd svc program, not the bacula-fd
daemon.
Is /opt/local/svc/support-files/bacula-fd a script? Maybe its contents will
reveal why it exits with 208?
__Martin
First let me apologize for miss-leading you and wasting your time. The
script /opt/local/svc/support-files/bacula-fd is the same exact script
that would have been installed in the /etc/init.d directory during the
make install-autostart-fd. It's just moved to a different location. A
quick look at this page http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/selfheal/
would explain far better then I could why.
Basically sun is moving services from /etc/init.d and the rc*.d
directories and putting them under the control of a daemon that is
responsible for ensuring that a particular service is running.
All of the above output was obtained by starting and then stopping
bacula-fd manually from the bacula install directory (/opt/local)
independent of svc control. Svc calls this script to start, restart, or
stop bacula. When stopping bacula svc gets a return value thats not 0 so
the service is put into maintenance mode and not restarted as it should
be requiring operator intervention to clear the status of the service.
This is the script responsible for starting and stopping bacula:
#! /bin/sh
#
# bacula This shell script takes care of starting and stopping
#the bacula File daemon.
#
# chkconfig: 2345 91 9

I'm no expert but I think that the commands:
/opt/local/bin/bacula stop
echo $?
208
/opt/local/bin/bacula start
echo $?
0
show the exit status of the bacula script which appears to be (208) and
(0).
I appreciate your time on this issue, and I hope this is a more clear
explanation about what's happening.
Thanks for the details.
The problem turns out to be quite funny: pkill in the above script kills the
script itself as well as killing the daemon :-)
I'm not quite sure why, but for some reason the shell running the script exits
with code 2000, which is 208 when looked at modulo 256.
Try giving the script a name not containing bacula-fd.
