[Bacula-users] portable flag
Anyway to resurrect my data that was not stored portable - it's looking highly unlikely that win xp is going to behave and decompress my data :( so i'm wondering if it is possible to ignore the non-portable parts?

Re: [Bacula-users] bacula on aix 5.2
Hello Marco, make: Cannot find a rule to create target ../findlib/libfind.a from dependencies. Stop. the problem seem to be into ../findlib/libfind can you suggest me anything? are you using only gnu tools for compiling (make, cc, etc.) ? It sounds like either your 'make' doesn't understand the Makefile, or maybe the Makefile has been not yet tuned up for AIX. Regards -- Maxx - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Bacula-users] Intervention needed?
Hi,
I have a problem with my daily backup jobs.
I use 2 tapes for mon-thu and set them to 25h retention.
As mentioned in some past posts, I put in an Admin job to recycle
volumes as needed.
But apparently that didn't work.
Today again, I had to mount the volume to release the job.
Could someone help me to find out what I'm doing wrong?
The timeline for the log is:
- 02 Aug, I purged and relabeled the two Daily volumes
- then I ran a backup on Daily2 (end time was 17:14)
- that evening, Daily1 ran as scheduled at 22:00
- 03 Aug, 21:50 - Admin Job (scheduled)
- 03 Aug, 22:00 - Backup could not find appendable volumes
- 03 Aug, 23:00 - Volume Daily2 recycled
job waited all night for me to mount volume. As soon as I did, job ran fine.
I have a snippet from bacula-dir.conf, a 'list volumes' before the mount
this morning and a current log file attached.
Regards
TT

[Bacula-users] protocol implementation?
hi list i'm looking for a way to code in the ability to provide the user do to download a file from a backup through a web interface, as all our backups are online. the information about the file can be fetched directly from the catalog, but getting the actual file is slightly more difficult. using the bconsole tool and a local filedaemon is a bit cumbersome so i am looking for a more easier way. i've been looking through the devel manual on how bconsole and the director and the director and the storagedaemon communicate but it doesnt make it much clearer for me. my goal is to implement a few items from the console to restore a file from a backup to a filedaemon of my own wich instead of saving the file to disk hands it to the web server to hand of to the user. i've seen some mentioning about a java implementation of the bconsole- director communications, but cant seem to find any concrete stuff. has/is anyone still working on this? fritz - Take Surveys.

In those three cases, Bacula would be linked against PostgreSQL client libraries that do not correspond to the PostgreSQL servers and thus crashes would not be surprising. While I haven't tried every possible combination, I've found that having the exact same version of libpq as is the server you're using is not necessary at all. I know that we have at least a few systems here where the client libraries are 8.0 and the server is 8.1 So, personally, I would find crashes resulting from mismatched client/server versions _very_ surprising.

In those three cases, Bacula would be linked against PostgreSQL client libraries that do not correspond to the PostgreSQL servers and thus crashes would not be surprising. While I haven't tried every possible combination, I've found that having the exact same version of libpq as is the server you're using is not necessary at all. I know that we have at least a few systems here where the client libraries are 8.0 and the server is 8.1 Well, maybe you are not a programmer, but all they need to do is change one minor thing in a packet definition, and it is bye-bye crash time. So, personally, I would find crashes resulting from mismatched client/server versions _very_ surprising. It should never result in a crash.

If you mix client libraries with a different version of the server, it can and has failed in the past and is not a bug. It all depends on whether or not they changed the interface. The API is relatively static, but the packet definitions as defined in the header files often change.

All files are restored, but for some of them I get something like this in messages: 01-Aug 15:31 fretka-fd: MilaRestoreFiles.2006-08-01_15.31.09 Error: Uncompression error on file /home/restore/home/nicmila/.thunderbird/fpjdjhkm.default/Mail/LocalFolde r s/Sent.msf. ERR=Zlib buffer error and the resulting files have zero length. This machine is a pretty new AMD64. When I have tried to restore to an older pentium4 machine, everything went ok. Both of them are running Gentoo Linux in similar configuration. Therefor I suspect the problem is in the 64bit machine. However trying to find any information on problems with zlib on AMD64 was not successful. I have tried to recompile both zlib and bacula, even with optimization turned off, but the errors remain. I would be glad for any suggestions how to fix this problem. Are you trying to restore files from Volumes that were written on the Pentium4 on the AMD64 or did you write the Volumes with your AMD64? I am trying to restore files that were backed up on an older pentium machine (as part of hardware update). I have now tried to restore backup that was already made on the AMD64 machine and everything seems to be OK. I guess it solves most of the problem for me now. Anyway I wonder what the problem is. Shouldn't zlib work regardless of the architecture? Yes, zlib should work regardless of the architecture -- this is a real pity to hear, because it means that zlib is not 32/64 bit clean and/or does not take the trouble to handle byte order differences. Perhaps it is time to consider implementing other compression algorithms such as lzma, which I believe were written more recently and probably handle thes problems. I'll also take a note of this and check the Bacula code as it is possible that there is a problem, though I doubt it. Thanks Beda p.s.- bacula is great :) Thanks. Regards, Kern Kern, I've just checked the bug reports for Debian AMD64 on the zlibc homepage and can find no reference to any 64bit bugs. Also, there has been no mention of any zlibc problems on the Debian AMD64 mailing list. (I'm running Debian Sarge for AMD64 here, myself, but haven't used compression.) So I would suspect that the problem is limited either to Gentoo Linux, in particular, to Mr. Kosata's system, or (I know this is a very remote possibility ;-) Bacula. I guess that I was not very precise. I did not mean to imply that this was a 64 bit problem. What I was trying to say is that zlib does not seem to be 32/64 bit clean, which means that if you compress data on a 32 bit machine and try to uncompress exactly the same data on a 64 bit machine, it doesn't seem to work. Whether or not it is a zlib or a Bacula bug I cannot tell, but I do know that we put a lot of effort in trying to ensure that Bacula is *totally* 32/64 bit independent. Even routines such as the system printf() or sscanf() are not even close to being 32/64 bit independent. I have made a few more test to be sure that it is not problem of one system. I have tried to restore files backed up on a 32bit machine onto *another* 64bit machine, with the same result - corrupted files. Restoring files backed up on a 64bit machine to a 32bit machine seems ok. The same is true for restoring files backed up on 64bit machine to another 64bit machine. So to summarize, it seems that 32 = 32 - OK 64 = 64 - OK 64 = 32 - OK 32 = 64 - Errors Unfortunately I cannot test 64bit machine under other OS than Gentoo Linux. Beda I'm not sure that this is relevant, as I have not compiled anything from source--I just download binaries from the Debian mirrors. But if gzip gunzip use the same zlib's as are used in Bacula, then I do not have the 32 = 64 errors here. As i test I compressed a tar archive with gzip on my 32-bit, PIII desktop; transferred it to my AMD64 Opeteron service and then sucessfully uncompressed it with gunzip. The desktop runs a mixture of Debian stable testing while the server is running pure stable.

[Bacula-users] SQL help needed predicting next tapes to recycle
Hello, I'm still looking for a way to predict which tapes bacula will try to recycle, so that I can pre-load our autochanger instead of having all backups halt with the intervention needed message. For example, I've got ~50 volumes in the incremental pool that are full, but I don't know which ones to load into the changer to be recycled. I understand that there's currently no way to run the recycle algorithm manually. I was considering the querying the database to produce a list of full volumes, reverse sorted by the age of the newest backup per volume. This list would tell me which are the oldest tapes (where the age is given by the newest backup per volume, not the first use of a volume). Does this seem like a reasonable approximation of the order in which bacula would recycle tapes (assuming that they are all in the changer, and assuming that all jobs per volume have the same retention period)? If so, I'd really appreciate some help with the SQL query to extract this data.
