[Bacula-users] Problems with 'Automatic Volume Labeling'
Hi everyone,
i have a question regarding 'Automatic Volume Labeling', a short
explanation of what i'm trying to do ...
i'm responsible for a small company, the backup is done to external
disks. There are different Pools writing
the Backup to specific disks labeling them with a syntax like:
Label Format=
Pool-Weekly-${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}-${Day:p/2/0/r}-${NumVols:+1:p/4/0/r}
which if no use able media exists is labeled on the device like
'Pool-Weekly-2007-10-23-0001'. So far so good,
but this only happens once, means the 'Maximum Volume Bytes' is set to
204800 (2GB) to ensure, it doesn't
matter where the external Disk is attached, the files are readable.
If a Backup Job requires more than one Media, the first get's labeled
and for every new Media required during the
Backup Job, Bacula asks the Operator to label a new Media.
My only solution for this right now is to estimate how much space the
Backup will use, and label the Volumes
before the Job runs, but as you can imagine thats annoying ...
is there anything i'm missing that this happens ?
thanks for any hint ...
kind regards
Michael Lang
the necessary configurations are :
pool
Pool{
Name= Pool-Weekly
Pool Type = Backup
Maximum Volume Bytes= 204800
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention= 365 days
Recycle = yes
Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
Purge Oldest Volume = no
Label Format=
Pool-Weekly-${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}-${Day:p/2/0/r}-${NumVols:+1:p/4/0/r}
Storage = Storage-Weekly
}
/pool
bacula-sd.conf
Device {
Name = Storage-Weekly
Media Type= File
Archive Device= /media/backup02
LabelMedia= yes;
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount= yes;
RemovableMedia= no;
AlwaysOpen= no;
}

Re: [Bacula-users] File size from backup needed. Where?
Hi, 22.10.2007 12:45,, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:: Hi fellow Bacula Users, We have a issue that a backup for a client suddenly has increased from 50 GB to 200GB at one client. In order to check the file(s) who are causing this, I'm checking my incremental backups to see what is causing this problems. Good idea. However, I don't seem to be able to find that in the database. If you restore a file, there is a filesize, so it seems logical to me that it is there. Yes, it is there, but not easily readable. As far as I know, this information is encoded in the file attribute field of the File table, File.LStat. The way it's encoded is probably only documented in the code itself, but there are applications around that access it. The most useful thing to do for you is probably to install bweb, which can give you the information you need. Getting bweb running is not trivial, though. I haven't set it up myself, but others report difficulties from time to time. There is an INSTALL file in the bweb directory, which gives a good overview of the installation process, but you might have to adapt it to your environment. However, I can't find it. My question: how can I select all filesizes for a certain Job/Client in the database or bconsole? Should also be possible with SQL... in the bweb distribution, look at the SQL function base64_decode_lstat definition. Arno Kind regards from Rotterdam, NL!

I'd first suggest to drop the LabelFormat directive. It's deprecated
and will vanish some day.
Instead, use a python event to provide names for new volumes.
This is described in the manual, for example
http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Python_Scripting.html#SECTION00356
After trying this it would be time for a more detailed problem report
(if the problem persist), preferrably including the version of Bacula
you're running...

Re: [Bacula-users] Using a USB disk
Did you see my reply to your thread titled /SBIN and mount command? Yes, I did. And I've done it without more problems. You need to ensure that the bacula user is allowed to mount the specified device on the specified mount point. This is the odd point. If mount the device editing /etc/fstab all runs fine; if I try the mount/umount command with bacula directly, it doesn't work. At present moment I'm using the ftsab solution, but I wonder to use mount/umount behaviour. -- Thanks, Jordi Espasa Clofent - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Bacula-users] spurious tracebacks
hi all i am currently running bacula-2.1.5 on my backup-server (and 2.1.4 on the clients), on debian/etch (using the debian-packages from packman) every now and then (the last one was today; then 1 month before; then 10 days before that,...) i get traceback emails from my backup-server, each for all of the 3 daemons (dir, file, storage) running there. the emails are pretty non-descriptive, a la: Subject: Bacula GDB traceback of bacula-sd (no debugging symbols found) Using host libthread_db library /lib/libthread_db.so.1. ptrace: Operation not permitted. /var/lib/bacula/6067: No such file or directory. the emails usually are sent when nothing interesting is happening (my backups are all finished at night; the emails are sent somewhen during the day). however, receiving tracebacks gives me an uneasy feeling. any idea why they might occur? (ok, my information i give here is rather sparse, so i should ask: how should i investigate why they occur?) any hints? fgmasdr IOhannes -- IEM - network operation center mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

The fileset is then defined to call that same script with another parameter that list the backup that has just been done. From what I've tested, it seems that the fileset is estimated before the runbefore task. This is preventing my backup because at the time the fileset is estimated, the backup is not yet done... Is there any way to tell bacula to do the fileset estimation after the runbefore task ? Have you considered the estimate command in bconsole? Would that output be useful for you? Leon wrote: Yes I did the estimate command on the fileset and the result is what I expected. That's why I believe at the time bacula get the list of files to backup, the backup is not yet done, thus the runbefore command is actually executed after the fileset has been estimated. Please do not reply at the top of the email. I do not understand what you need. From the subject, I think you want to create a FileSet from ClientRunBefore. But I have a hard time parsing the content of your email to understand your objective. I will guess again: If you are trying to dynamically create a FileSet, I suggest reading this URL: http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Configuring_Director.html And search for this test: There are a number of special cases when specifying directories and files in a file-list. They are: If that is not what you need, please tell us your goal / objective. You are asking how to do the fileset estimation after the runbefore task. I think you've already decided what the solution is but I think some context will help us find a solution for you that will work. I might be wrong, but I read this to mean Bruno was having problems because Bacula builds the fileset/filelist it is going to back up before it runs the RunBefore job. However, Bruno's script is designed to do a Database backup first and then provide the fileset information on where this Backup is stored second. As far as I know there is no way to control this behavior, I can see a couple of ways to work around it: 1) Have the actual Database Backup done as part of an Admin job scheduled to occur just before the Bacula Backup job runs. If you are running multiple concurrent jobs this might be hard to implement. 2) Backup the files to a location you can calculate in advance - For example, make every days backup get created in a subfolder named after the date for example. The 'fileset building script' can then easily pass this folder back to Bacula. 3) Have the fileset building process run the backup directly first - No idea whether this would even work, nor exactly how bad an idea it would be. This works. Basically you create whatever files you need, and output their names. Arno Hope this helps, Troy. This does work indeed, but that would still be useful to be able to change that behavior. However I don't know if that requires a lot of changes in bacula itself. Thanks all for your help, Bruno. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Configure your storage daemon with a hostname, and specify that

I would suggest you OpenVPN. It is easy to setup, there is a lot of
howtos on the net and it will solve all NAT problems. OpenVPN is for
both Windows and Linux and all it needs is one port on public IP. We
use it for backing up remote servers and it works like a charm.
Basically you need to install OpenVPN server in your office and OpenVPN
clients on all your clients. OpenVPN will create new ethernet devices
which are connected all together. You then setup some private IPs on
this virtual network and use them in bacula configuration.

Re: [Bacula-users] Disk backup recycling
Hi,
I suggest to solve like this:
One Pool only. 8 volumes. Retention time 7 days and few hours. Use time
1 day.
The use will be like this:
first Monday: full backup. volume 1 used and contains the full backup
Tue to Sun: diff backup using volumes 2 to 7 (automaticaly selected or
created by bacula)
second Monday: volume 1 is not free yet, so using volume 8 for full
backup. Now you have two full backups.
second Tuesday: volume 1 is available and bacula will recycle it for
first differencial backup. Old full backup is discarded. Now you have
full backup on volume 8, first diff on volume 1 and 6 volumes with
useless data
second Wednesday: volume 2 is available etc.
You will not be able to keep the exact content of volumes in your head,
but the bacula is designed for not needing that. You can still read
every day's report and get your brain busy with it (and I recomand it
for few weeks to catch the buggies).

Radek Hladik napsal(a):
Hi,
I am implementing simple schema for backing up our data. Data are
backed up to disk. Full backup is performed every Sunday. The next 6
days differential backups are performed.
I want to keep only one Full backup and at maximum 6 daily differences.
The moment new Full backup is made, previous Full backup and its
differential children can be deleted. According to documentation
(chapter Automated disk backup) I've made two pools like this:
Pool
{
Name = full
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 7 days
Label format = full
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Maximum Volumes = 2
}
Pool
{
Name = diff
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 7 days
Label format = diff
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Maximum Volumes = 8
}
But as I understand it, there will be two full backups as backups have
period 7 days and retention is 7 days too - so the last week backup will
not be reused as it is not old enough. But if I lower retention to i.e.
6 days, the volume will be deleted before performing backup and there
will be window without any backup.
I am backing up a lot of clients and I do not mind having one
unnecessary backup during backup process itself but I would like to
avoid having two backups for each client for whole the time.
And my other question - can be differential/incremental backups
automatically deleted as soon as their parent is reused/deleted?

[Bacula-users] Calling client script ( Before / After jobs ) with parameters
Hi to all: I'm currently working on the integration with bacula and rman, the tool to make backups/restores of Oracle databases. Reading bacula documentation, seems that some releases before, the admin was able to define environment variables inside bacula ( and use them as parameters for the scripts called on before/after jobs ) but now this method seems deprecated in favor of python scripting. My idea is to make standard scripts ( less maintenance and advantages on adding new databases to backup ) that 'point to' the database/catalog to backup using parameters, like this example: /home/oracle/bin/full_backup_rman10g.sh rman catalog connection chain ORACLE_SID_TO_BACKUP ARCHIVELOG_MODE_OF_DATABASE_TO_BACKUP Then should be called in bacula like this: Client Run Before Job=/home/oracle/bin/full_backup_rman.sh sys/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ORCL NOARCHIVELOG With this approach we could be able to deploy a set of identical scripts ( no internal modification for each host with Oracle to be protected and of course, no changes lost if we need to upgrade this scripts) in the same way even if we use rman locally in the host with the oracle database ( or databases ) to back up or if we use the same machine where bacula-dir relays or if we use a third machine to consolidate all rman procedures, etc... I'm a completely python ignorant, and before spend time trying to understand how to translate this behavior to python way of life, I prefer ear from you.

[Bacula-users] Bacula-SD hang using IBM Ultrium 3581 Library
Hello,
I'm having a peculiar problem with an IBM Ultrium 3581 autochanger and the
SD daemon. I have to restart the SD daemon after I unmount a tape, or the
next job hangs and never starts.
We currently have a single LTO2 drive in the library, and are running Bacula
2.2.5 on a Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 update 5 IBM server. I ran all the
btape tests, including the multiple tape test for autochangers, and they all
worked flawlessly. Not a single problem or error reported. I am able to
use the mtx script and mt successfully as well. Mtx reports all the proper
tapes in the library, and I can mount a tape and WEOF and REWIND it using
mt. Things look great at this point. Next, I ran label barcodes and it
labeled all the tapes in the library properly. Again, no problems. I
decided at this point to modify the Full OS Set backup for our environment
and run some tests. I can successfully run the backup the first time. It
pulls a tape from the proper pool inside the library, backup works. But if
I unmount the tape in bconsole, and try and run the same backup again, it
hangs. Nothing happens. I have waited several hours and nothing ever times
out. I finally have to cancel the job manually. I discovered that by
restarting bacula-sd that I can then re-run the job immediately without any
problems.
I'm not sure what could be causing this, or how to even troubleshoot.
Things seem to work great during all tests and doing a backup, Bacula just
doesn't like it when I unmount a tape manually.
Could someone offer some advice or debugging steps I could take to figure
this out? Below is a copy of my bacula-sd.conf file. I can post other
config files if I need to. Thanks

If you run a status storage when this is occurring, I believe you will see
that the drive is unmounted and offline by user. Mounting a tape, or instead
using the release command to unmount tapes should solve your problem if this

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula-SD hang using IBM Ultrium 3581 Library
Thanks Blake,
You are correct, it seems when I run an unmount, the drive goes into this
state
Jobs waiting to reserve a drive:
3604 JobId=25 device Drive-0 (/dev/nst0) is BLOCKED due to user
unmount.
Device status:
Autochanger Autochanger with devices:
Drive-0 (/dev/nst0)
Device FileStorage (/tmp) is not open.
Device Drive-0 (/dev/nst0) is not open.
Device is BLOCKED. User unmounted.
Drive 0 status unknown.
If i restart the bacula-sd daemon, the status is now
Device status:
Autochanger Autochanger with devices:
Drive-0 (/dev/nst0)
Device FileStorage (/tmp) is not open.
Device Drive-0 (/dev/nst0) is not open.
Drive 0 status unknown.
So that appears to be the problem. And my next question is, release is
the proper way to unmount a tape from the drive? It appears to work, I'm
just trying to understand the difference. Thanks a lot

Reading bacula documentation, seems that some releases before, the admin was able to define environment variables inside bacula ( and use them as parameters for the scripts called on before/after jobs ) I never noticed that, but I never looked for that, too. but now this method seems deprecated in favor of python scripting. Using python, it should be possible to access the environment as well. Again, I haven't tried it yet, so I don't know if Bacula sets up the environment it inherits when started. My idea is to make standard scripts ( less maintenance and advantages on adding new databases to backup ) that 'point to' the database/catalog to backup using parameters, like this example: /home/oracle/bin/full_backup_rman10g.sh rman catalog connection chain ORACLE_SID_TO_BACKUP ARCHIVELOG_MODE_OF_DATABASE_TO_BACKUP Then should be called in bacula like this: Client Run Before Job=/home/oracle/bin/full_backup_rman.sh sys/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ORCL NOARCHIVELOG With this approach we could be able to deploy a set of identical scripts ( no internal modification for each host with Oracle to be protected and of course, no changes lost if we need to upgrade this scripts) in the same way even if we use rman locally in the host with the oracle database ( or databases ) to back up or if we use the same machine where bacula-dir relays or if we use a third machine to consolidate all rman procedures, etc... I'm a completely python ignorant, and before spend time trying to understand how to translate this behavior to python way of life, I prefer ear from you. You won't get my ear :-) The rest of your approach seems reasonable and should be easily implemented. I found python was easy to learn and use, so for me it was definitely worth the effort. Of course, using bash or whatever shell you prefer can be done, too. I think it's more or less a question of what you prefer. If you start working on it, and expect to spend some time on this anyway, I'd suggest to pipe the rman output to Bacula directly, without the need of a dump file in between. That saves you a bit of disk space on the client. The necessary parts are all available - you can backup from and restore to a FIFO in Bacula, and you can call scripts to set up the pipes and reader/writer processes. There are examples available, I'd start reading at wiki.bacula.org if I were you. Of course, whatever you come up with might be worth adding to the wiki, too.

The difference is that 'umount' unloads the tape and then releases the
drive for use by other programs. 'release' only releases the drive and
informs the SD of the fact that it has to ensure proper tape
positioning when it starts using the tape again.
Your original problem seems to be that you didn't notice you have to
mount the storage after manually unmounting it. Bacula does not send a
reminder mail in these cases, because the operator is expected to know
if the tape was manually unmounted :-)
So, in general: If you unmount a storage device, you have to mount it
again. The current status is, as stated, easily checked with the 'sta
sd' command.

Hello,
I'm having a peculiar problem with an IBM Ultrium 3581 autochanger
and the SD daemon. I have to restart the SD daemon after I unmount
a tape, or the next job hangs and never starts.
We currently have a single LTO2 drive in the library, and are
running Bacula 2.2.5 on a Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 update 5 IBM
server. I ran all the btape tests, including the multiple tape test
for autochangers, and they all worked flawlessly. Not a single
problem or error reported. I am able to use the mtx script and mt
successfully as well. Mtx reports all the proper tapes in the
library, and I can mount a tape and WEOF and REWIND it using mt.
Things look great at this point. Next, I ran label barcodes and
it labeled all the tapes in the library properly. Again, no
problems. I decided at this point to modify the Full OS Set
backup for our environment and run some tests. I can successfully
run the backup the first time. It pulls a tape from the proper pool
inside the library, backup works. But if I unmount the tape in
bconsole, and try and run the same backup again, it hangs. Nothing
happens. I have waited several hours and nothing ever times out. I
finally have to cancel the job manually. I discovered that by
restarting bacula-sd that I can then re-run the job immediately
without any problems.
I'm not sure what could be causing this, or how to even
troubleshoot. Things seem to work great during all tests and doing
a backup, Bacula just doesn't like it when I unmount a tape manually.
Could someone offer some advice or debugging steps I could take to
figure this out? Below is a copy of my bacula-sd.conf file. I can
post other config files if I need to. Thanks

Instead, use a python event to provide names for new volumes. umh. i must have missed this... will it really be dropped ? as i am using it, i don't fancy learning python just to replicate its functionality. Well... it won't be dropped anytime soon, but I recall Kern stating that he won't touch that code anymore, so once he needs to rework the code related to automatic volume labeling, it might be gone. I couldn't say how likely that is, though - might be tomorrow, or in ten years. i am using this parameter to create single file per backup job and give them meaningful names - would it indeed at some point get replaced by a requirement to script in python ? That requirement, by the way, is not very problematic. The sample given in the manual should almost work out of the box, and python is easier to learn than Baculas variable substitution language :-) This is described in the manual, for example http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Python_Scripting.html#SECTION00356 ... Anyway - I'm operating Bacula installations using the LabelFormat option as well, and those work correctly. But then, these installations haven't labeled a volume for more than a year now, as their pools have reached their maximum number of volumes by now. It might be that there is a bug somewhere, which noone noticed yet. You could try to set up a test pool and job, where you limit the volumes to, say, 10MB, use the most simple form of LabelFormat, i.e. Label- or something, and assign a newly created storage device to it. Then, run a job, preferrably with debug output enabled, and see what happens. That should eliminate the chance that some misconfiguration crept into your catalog, and it should give a good set of debug files to analyze quickly.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula-SD hang using IBM Ultrium 3581 Library
I was using unmount from bconsole to unmount the tape. It was not releasing
it. That is what is confusing me. But your saying it should. So its even
more perplexing now. Release seems to do what I want. It unmounts the
tape, and releases the drive. But the word unmount seems more intuitive
to me than release.

Re: [Bacula-users] Job started twice
I assume it's always the same job that behaves like this? Yeah. It might be started twice because the DIR clock jumps. That could very well be the problem, seems theres some 30 minutes difference between the clocks. So that would be for the second job started. Yeah thats what I'm thinking. Have you checked what happens when you run this job manually, when no other jobs are active? I plan to try this once I figure out how to get the schedules updated. Before you report this as a bug it would be good to supply some more information - the versions of Bacula, for example :-) Running bacula-dir and bacula-sd 2.0.3, and bacula-fd 2.0.0. I know there are some serious bugs that have been fixed and I am working on upgrading (not an easy task). What I'd do in your situation is first making sure the problem happens also when only this one job is active, i.e. disable all your other jobs, or schedule this problem job differently. Then, run the DIR with debug tracing enabled and see if that tells you something. All this is worth the effort only with a reasonably recent version of Bacula as I suppose Kern would not spend much time on 1.38 bugs anymore... I ran the backup manually with run and there seemed to be no problems. Also, when I set a delay in the run time there aren't any problems. However, I'm not sure how to update the scheduled jobs list after it has already been generated... I updated the configuration but it doesn't seem to care. Also tried deleting bacula's state file but that didn't work either. Any tips? Sincerely, -Michael - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Still grepping through log files to find problems?

[Bacula-users] need help defining client files for backup...
Hey gang,
I've read through all the docs I can find on the subject but just
cannot decipher the correct method of describing in a fileset which
directories on which client machine should be backed up.
Here's the Linux Server:/directories I want backed up where the
connections have all been made and I successfully backed up the local files:
{localhost:}/home/*
RptEngine1:/usr/local/reports/A*.pdf
DB2:/var/lib/mysql/*
WEB1:/web/sites/*
Any help would be appreciated.

You define the necessary clients first.
Then you create the filesets you need - there will be at least four of
them.
/home/, /var/lib/mysql/, and /web/sites/ are easy.
/usr/local/reports/A*.pdf will need wildcards or regexes in an options
clause.
Nte that backing up the mysql database files while the database server
is running is useless - you need to shut down the database server, or
dump the databases you're interested in to a file and back up that (or
these) files.
Hope that gets you started,
Arno

You can do this even if the SD is inside your firewall, you'll

I think in this case, /etc/hosts is your friend :-)
Configure your storage daemon with a hostname, and specify that
hostname in /etc/hosts to be either the internal or the external
address, as required. And you don't need to return different
results from your internal DNS server. Dead simple and works well.

Sorry, I should have sayd more...
when I try to put the Address config on the sd, like this:
Storage { # definition of myself
Name = test-sd
Address = Storage-Server
SDPort = 9103 # Director's port WorkingDirectory

Pid Directory = /var/run

}
I get this error when I start bacula-sd

I've just managed to make the backups run across the internet. I'm
really thankfull for all of you guys :d Fiddling a little with the
/etc/hosts and the firewall...it worked perfectly :D Now is just
making it secure...thanks a lot guys :D
I would suggest you OpenVPN. It is easy to setup, there is a lot of
howtos on the net and it will solve all NAT problems. OpenVPN is for
both Windows and Linux and all it needs is one port on public IP. We
use it for backing up remote servers and it works like a charm.
Basically you need to install OpenVPN server in your office and
OpenVPN clients on all your clients. OpenVPN will create new
ethernet devices which are connected all together. You then setup
some private IPs on this virtual network and use them in bacula
configuration.

Hum...it seems that not everything is perfect tough...
From one server, there's no problem backing up, but from another, which
has a lot of traffic, is basically impossible to back up, since I got
every time a big Broken Pipe
any help is apreciated...

Re: [Bacula-users] need help defining client files for backup...
Arno,
Are you suggesting I create multiple fileset (directives) within
bacula-dir.conf? If so, how do I identify the fileset with the client?
That is the root of my confusion, I cannot figure out how to correlate a group
of files/directories with hosts.

also in bacula-dir.conf:
JobDefs {
Name = WebHost
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
Client = WebHost
FileSet = Full Set
Schedule = WeeklyCycle
Storage = PacketLoader
Messages = Standard
Pool = Default
Priority = 10
}
The machine is called WebHost and I am backing up a set of directories
called Full Set.
There is also a job called:
Job {
Name = WebHost
JobDefs = WebHost
Write Bootstrap = /var/bacula/WebHost.bsr
}
and an associated fileset called Full Set:
# List of files to be backed up
FileSet {
Name = Full Set
Include {
Options {
signature = MD5
}
#
# Put your list of files here, preceded by 'File =', one per line
#or include an external list with:
#
#File = file-name
#
# Note: / backs up everything on the root partition.
#if you have other partitons such as /usr or /home
#you will probably want to add them too.
#
# By default this is defined to point to the Bacula build
#directory to give a reasonable FileSet to backup to
#disk storage during initial testing.
#
#File = /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/bacula-1.38.3
File = /home
File = /
File = /boot
File = /var
}
#
# If you backup the root directory, the following two excluded
# files can be useful
#
Exclude {
File = /proc
File = /tmp
File = /.journal
File = /.fsck
File = /var/mail
File = /sys
}
}
And all of this is in bacula-dir.conf.
Note: There is a specific listing for each _PARTITION_ in the fileset.
Otherwise, the backup process will not cross partition boundaries.

below:

bacula-dir.conf. I want to understand this but the problem still remains, how
do I tie the files on WEB1, DB2 and RptEngine into the default job?
JobDefs {
Name = DefaultJob
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
Client = DURANGO-fd
FileSet = Full Set
Schedule = WeeklyCycle
Storage = DAT72
Messages = ConsOnly# no email during testing
Pool = Default
Priority = 10
}
# Localhost to backup
Client {
Name = DURANGO-fd
Address = DURANGO
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = l4...y# password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 30 days# 30 days
Job Retention = 6 months# six months
AutoPrune = yes# Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
# Local files
FileSet {
Name = Full Set
Include {
Options { signature = MD5 }
File = /home/dgardner
}
}
#
# Database Client to backup
#
Client {
Name = DB2-fd
Address = DB2
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = l4...2# password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 30 days# 30 days
Job Retention = 6 months# six months
AutoPrune = yes# Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
# Database files
FileSet {
Name = Full Set
Include {
Options { Compression=GZIP }
File = /var/lib/mysql/airadvice-backup/c*
}
}
#
# Web Server Client to backup
#
Client {
Name = WEB1-fd
Address = WEB1
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = l4...2# password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 30 days# 30 days
Job Retention = 6 months# six months
AutoPrune = yes# Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
# Webserver files
FileSet {
Name = Full Set
Include {
Options { Compression=GZIP }
File = /web/sites/*
}
}
#
# Report Engine Client to backup
#
Client {
Name = RptEngine1-fd
Address = RptEngine1
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = l4...2# password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 30 days# 30 days

}
# RptEngine files
FileSet {

Hey gang,
I've read through all the docs I can find on the subject but just
cannot decipher the correct method of describing in a fileset which
directories on which client machine should be backed up.
Here's the Linux Server:/directories I want backed up where the
connections have all been made and I successfully backed up the
local files:
{localhost:}/home/*
RptEngine1:/usr/local/reports/A*.pdf
DB2:/var/lib/mysql/*
WEB1:/web/sites/*
Any help would be appreciated.
You define the necessary clients first.
Then you create the filesets you need - there will be at least four of
them.
/home/, /var/lib/mysql/, and /web/sites/ are easy.
/usr/local/reports/A*.pdf will need wildcards or regexes in an options
clause.
Nte that backing up the mysql database files while the database server
is running is useless - you need to shut down the database server, or
dump the databases you're interested in to a file and back up that (or
these) files.
Hope that gets you started,
Arno
