[Bacula-users] bacula prunes files too early
All retention periods in my config are more than 30 days. But at Feb, 3 I tried to restore some files from job dated by Feb, 2 I select necessary job but get: Building directory tree for JobId 1695 ... There were no files inserted into the tree, so file selection is not possible.Most likely your retention policy pruned the files Do you want to restore all the files?

Hello, In fact I don't have the solution for your problem as I am looking for it too ;) As far as I can see, your job has a lot of files ( 1 million). I have the same problem for a job with 1.3 million files. It seems that bacula doesn't write the file entries in the catalog (in the files table) for big jobs like that. The result is that you can't select individual files when restoring, you can just restore the whole job. Incremental job for this fileset is working ok and the files are present in catalog. That's why I think this is related with jobs with a lot of files. I'm using Bacula 2.4.4 on Debian Etch (from backport.org) with PostgreSQL as backend for the catalog. If someone has information on this problem... Regards, -- Jérôme Schell CPE Lyon -- Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.

Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] Feature Request: Data encryption
Hello, And why not use an encrypted filesystem to store your media ? One major advantage, it's already there and can be functionnal in 30mins, an other advantage, is that a simple cp permit to crypt old backups. Bye Le Tuesday 03 February 2009 16:33:21 Tobias Barth, vous avez écrit : Hi, since Bacula supports encryption of file data now, I wonder what to do with old unencrypted tapes. I think it would be good if one of the tools that come with bacula would allow tapes to be encrypted - by reading their data to disc, and writing them back with encrypted files. Would it be possible to implement that feature in one of the upcoming versions of bacula - maybe as enhancement of the tool bcopy? Another feature that I'd like to see in bacula would be data encryption by the storage demon, so that the encryption keys on a multi computer-system need only be stored on the machine with the storage demon on it.

Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] feature request: Maximum Concurrent Jobs for drives when used with changer device
Hello,
I have added this Feature Request to the projects list for the next vote --
probably a month or two from now.
Best regards,
Kern

Item 1: Maximum Concurrent Jobs for drives when used with changer
device Origin: Ralf Gross ralf-lists at ralfgross.de
Date: 2008-12-12
Status: Initial Request
What: respect the Maximum Concurrent Jobs directive in the _drives_
Storage section in addition to the changer section
Why:I have a 3 drive changer where I want to be able to let 3
concurrent jobs run in parallel. But only one job per drive at the same
time. Right now I don't see how I could limit the number of concurrent jobs
per drive in this situation.
Notes: Using different priorities for these jobs lead to problems that
other jobs are blocked. On the user list I got the advice to use the
Prefer Mounted Volumes directive, but Kern advised against using Prefer
Mounted Volumes in an other thread:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.bacula.devel/11876/
In addition I'm not sure if this would be the same as respecting
the drive's Maximum Concurrent Jobs setting.
Example:
Storage {
Name = Neo4100
Address =
SDPort = 9103
Password = wiped
Device = Neo4100
Media Type = LTO4
Autochanger = yes
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 3
}
Storage {
Name = Neo4100-LTO4-D1
Address =
SDPort = 9103
Password = wiped
Device = ULTRIUM-TD4-D1
Media Type = LTO4
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
}
[2 more drives]
The Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1 directive in the drive's
section is ignored.

The feature is working, but bacula always waits for appendable media before it starts spooling. So, after the operator has inserted the media, again 2 or more hours are spent for spooling before the tape starts writing. I think it would be nice if the spooling would immediately start when the job is submitted by the user or the scheduler. And here comes the formal feature request: Item 1: Start spooling even when waiting on tape Origin: Tobias Barth tobias.ba...@web-arts.com Date: 25 April 2008 Status: What: If a job can be spooled to disk before writing it to tape, it should be spooled immediately. Currently, bacula waits until the correct tape is inserted into the drive. Why:It could save hours. When bacula waits on the operator who must insert the correct tape (e.g. a new tape or a tape from another media pool), bacula could already prepare the spooled data in the spooling directory and immediately start despooling when the tape was inserted by the operator. 2nd step: Use 2 or more spooling directories. When one directory is currently despooling, the next (on different disk drives) could already be spooling the next data. Notes: I am using bacula 2.2.8, which has none of those features implemented.

Re: [Bacula-users] feature request: fixed naming/numbering of sql queries
Hello, I have added this to the projects list. Best regards, Kern On Wednesday 24 January 2007 16:43:45 mark.berg...@uphs.upenn.edu wrote: Item 1: enable persistent naming/number of SQL queries Date: 24 Jan, 2007 Origin: Mark Bergman Status: What: Change the parsing of the query.sql file and the query command so that queries are named/numbered by a fixed value, not their order in the file. Why: One of the real strengths of bacula is the ability to query the database, and the fact that complex queries can be saved and referenced from a file is very powerful. However, the choice of query (both for interactive use, and by scripting input to the bconsole command) is completely dependent on the order within the query.sql file. The descriptve labels are helpful for interactive use, but users become used to calling a particular query by number, or may use scripts to execute queries. This presents a problem if the number or order of queries in the file changes. If the query.sql file used the numeric tags as a real value (rather than a comment), then users could have a higher confidence that they are executing the intended query, that their local changes wouldn't conflict with future bacula upgrades. For scripting, it's very important that the intended query is what's actually executed. The current method of parsing the query.sql file discourages scripting because the addition or deletion of queries within the file will require corresponding changes to scripts. It may not be obvious to users that deleting query 17 in the query.sql file will require changing all references to higher numbered queries. Similarly, when new bacula distributions change the number of official queries, user-developed queries cannot simply be appended to the file without also changing any references to those queries in scripts or procedural documentation, etc. In addition, using fixed numbers for queries would encourage more user-initiated development of queries, by supporting conventions such as: queries numbered 1-50 are supported/developed/distributed by with official bacula releases queries numbered 100-200 are community contributed, and are related to media management queries numbered 201-300 are community contributed, and are related to checksums, finding duplicated files across different backups, etc. queries numbered 301-400 are community contributed, and are related to backup statistics (average file size, size per client per backup level, time for all clients by backup level, storage capacity by media type, etc.) queries numbered 500-999 are locally created Notes: Alternatively, queries could be called by keyword (tag), rather than by number. --- Mark Bergman mark.berg...@uphs.upenn.edu System Administrator Section of Biomedical Image Analysis 215-662-7310 Department of Radiology, University of Pennsylvania http://pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de:11371/pks/lookup?search=mark.bergman%40.uphs.upen n.edu The information contained in this e-mail message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the recipient(s) named above.

[Bacula-users] Character substitution changed?
Hello, It seems that %n character substitution changed from version 2.4.3 to 2.4.4 (%n = Job name). There are 2 directors in production which both have these lines in bacula-dir.conf (in a JobDefs resource): RunAfterJob = /usr/local/bin/bacula_job_status.sh %c %i %e %n %l bacula_job_status.sh is simple, it only does (on both server) : echo $(date +%F) $@ /var/bacula/working/backup_status If I take a look at the backup_status files, they differ : 2.4.3: 2009-02-04 backup02c-fd 132 OK job_backup02c Incremental 2.4.4: 2009-02-04 backup01c-fd 142 OK job_backup01c.2009-02-04_00 Incremental So %n is not substituted the same way. Date is appended in 2.4.4 to the job name. As I also use it for bootstrap file name, it changes everyday and bootstrap files are not usable. Of course, in Job resources, there is: Name = job_backup01c Name = job_backup02c Anyone else noticed this? May I have forgotten other configuration parts that change the behaviour? If not, should I open a bug report?

[Bacula-users] Have I got it wrong or should this be a feature request?
Dear All, I've been spending some time migrating jobs from an obsolete tape drive which is connected to an SD on one server a few hundred miles away to a rather newer tape unit connected to an SD on another server a few metres away. As far as I can gather, under 2.4.2 it isn't possible to directly migrate data reading from one SD and writing to another. Let me give you an example of how I've worked around it, calling them SD1 and SD2. A migration job does the following: - Read the data from SD1 - Write it to a temporary staging pool (a file rather than a tape) managed by SD1 Once that's complete, copy the files which make up the staging pool onto the system where SD2 resides and update the database to reflect their location in SD2. Run another migration job which: - Reads the data from the staging pool (which we've now copied to SD2) - Writes it out to the tape managed by SD2. Phew. This leaves me with two questions: 1. Is this the only realistic way to deal with the problem I originally described? 2. Am I the only one to have encountered such a problem? (I'm not sure there's much point in submitting a feature request if I am because it probably won't affect me again anyway).

Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring my catalog
I have another problem. I want to restore my backed-up catalog. I catalog backup which created a BSR file (server.bsr). When I tried restoring using BSR file , I get the following error; File does not exist - (/tmp/bacula-restores/var/bacula/Catalog.sql) Is there a step am missing? I have tried to read through some posts, but all lead me to knowwhere. I would start with running a restore job that does not run a script to put the catalog back. Make sure the Catalog.sql file gets saved somewhere and after that it should be easy to manually restore the database.

[Bacula-users] Same library on two or more server
Hi at all, I use bacula than more 2 years with good result. I have a question because I think to use the same library (Spectralogi T50) on two different servers. This is becouse the amount of data is very big (more than 2 TB) and use the fibre channel rather than ethernet is more fast. I have installed the storage daemon and client daemon on the other machine where is the data to backup. I command this storage daemon using the old Director on the other server, and my question is: I configure the library on the storage daemon configuration file at the same on the true server where the other backup running, or i do that , for the director, this is a new library?

Re: [Bacula-users] Setup advices for some heterogenous set of server
Hello, 03.02.2009 13:44, Thomas Manson wrote: Hi, I've read quite some stuff about bacula, but I'm still not sure of the best way to implement it. I've attached a simple diagram that represent the network as it will soon be. (DNS Server 1 and WebServer 2 are not yet setup). On each server of the left side, the host provider gives 160GB of disk on FTP. The Home Server is the server that will run the Backup Director. Over internet, servers can communicate via SSH. Additionnal port can be opened, but I'd rather not. You can tunnel any connection where you can specify the host and port to use through ssh. In Bacula, you could set up the tunnels using a run before job script. A regular VPN might be easier to maintain, though harder to set up. HomeServer and Office Server has an 1MByte/s download and 100KByte/s upload capabilities. That's a bit limited for backup purposes of large data sets. Other Servers have more the 50MByte/s upload capabilities For WebServer1 3, and Office Server, I've no other solution that get backup to HomeServer. For other servers, I've the 160GB disks available, but I'm not sure of their reliabality (Probably not raid 1 or 5 device, who can access). Any thought, advice? Well, it's quite important to know where you want your backups to end up. Assuming you want them all consolidated on the HomeServer, you'd need some VPN/ssh tunnels to all the servers you want to back up. Once those exist, it's a rather standard situation to set up Bacula accordingly. If you need to keep backup data on te different sites because of the traffic limitations, you'll end up with a number of SDs - one in each location - but you can still control those with a single DIR instance. Getting a usable setup might be difficult because the SD address in the configuration needs to be valid both for the DIR and the FDs accessing that SD - again, a VPN might be useful, but some careful /etc/hosts edits on all the sites might do the trick. If all your servers are accessible with public IPs / DNS names, that's not much of an issue, though. More specific advice would require some more knowledge about your network layout - are those heavily firewalled networks, do they share a common DNS zone, or are they even networks completely separated from each other?

Re: [Bacula-users] Problem with restore
Hello, You are running a pretty old version of Bacula, and it appears you have used encryption on Win32 (not specified). If I remember right, the first releases with encryption had a problem with encryption signatures failing on Win32 because Microsoft does not restore files bit for bit when doing BackupWrite(). I fixed the code to kludge this a long time ago. Also it seems to me that this is an Error, which is annoying from the stand point that a lot of messages print, but an Error is not fatal to the restore job, so in fact, your data should be correctly restored except for the undesired messages. If your restore job is in fact getting canceled (I hope not), you will need to modify the code and rebuild the FD. Alternatively updating to a later FD in the 2.0.x series (possibly even in the 2.2 series) should eliminate the problem. By reading the technotes, you could probably find in which version the problem was fixed. If I remember right, the data on the Volume is correct and the only changes involved exactly how the signature is created and compared. The encryption signature is separate from the MD5 signatures and the check cannot be disabled during restore without modifying the code, which should not really be necessary as I explained above.

Next I do full backup to disk with compression on. How do I deal with compression for copy job? Will bacula uncompress the data on the disk and then copy to tape or will I have to turn off compression on the tape drive and copy will write compressed data to the tape? Thanks.

This is starting to get annoying Can the parts of bacula that ask for volume names not arbitrarily use atoi on them? Here is a good example where I want to purge a volume name, since I know now the list of volumes that I want to purge and reuse for this month's backup set: Enter MediaId or Volume name: 29 sql_get.c:1002 Media record MediaId=29 not found. In this case, it's only a hassle because MediaId 29 doesn't exist. A worse problem occurs when the leading zeros are stripped off of a volume name, and the resulting number is a valid MediaId.

Why: One of the real strengths of bacula is the ability to query the database, and the fact that complex queries can be saved and referenced from a file is very powerful. However, the choice of query (both for interactive use, and by scripting input to the bconsole command) is completely dependent on the order within the query.sql file. The descriptve labels are helpful for interactive use, but users become used to calling a particular query by number, or may use scripts to execute queries. This presents a problem if the number or order of queries in the file changes. Wanted to give a +1 on this one.

Why:Currently, all scripting has to be done by emulating user input to bconsole. This is tedious, kludgy, error prone, and does not readily allow for taking different actions based on the output from one script. It also makes processing the output difficult (you have to parse out output that is intended for users), and ultimately also constrains the development of bconsole (because in order to not break scripts, bconsole cannot just change error messages for clarification, for instance). Somebody else recently pointed out that the numbering of queries in the Query command may change and break scripts, too.

If there isn't one, use the input as a volume name. In a way, that would be nice - but actually, it's not completely backwards compatible because for the exact same input, bacula's behavior would be changing. It also doesn't cover all the bases, because who says that volume labels have to have leading zeros. What about a scenario where the volume label has only digits but doesn't start with a leading zero? In that case, you might well have a volume label 137 and a media id 137 and you'd still have the same problem. -- Kevin Keane Owner The NetTech Find the Uncommon: Expert Solutions for a Network You Never Have to Think About Office: 866-642-7116 http://www.4nettech.com This e-mail and attachments, if any, may contain confidential and/or proprietary information.

Re: [Bacula-users] Same library on two or more server
Hi, i search and I read a lot of thread . You have a different situation. You want to use only changer on a different machine. In my case I already use the library , with sd daemon on one host (call srv1) and it's work fine. Now i'd like to use one director (is the same on server srv1 that work ), with another server (srv2) that have installed only the client and the storage daemon . The both server see the library with fibre channel. It's work if the srv1 think the srv2 use another library (but it's the same), and I work with srv1 on the night, and on srv2 in the day that I not have problem with same access at the same time on the library. If this happens I think that the director append the jobs one after one with no problem for the library. Shad L. Lords wrote: Daniele Eccher wrote: I use bacula than more 2 years with good result. I have a question because I think to use the same library (Spectralogi T50) on two different servers. This is becouse the amount of data is very big (more than 2 TB) and use the fibre channel rather than ethernet is more fast. I have installed the storage daemon and client daemon on the other machine where is the data to backup. I command this storage daemon using the old Director on the other server, and my question is: I configure the library on the storage daemon configuration file at the same on the true server where the other backup running, or i do that , for the director, this is a new library? This is almost identical to what I wanted to do a few months ago. Search the archives for a thread called Changer on different host. I also submitted a feature request back then (at the wrong time) to add this functionality. Kern, would you like me to resubmit this request to be added to the list or can you dig it out of the archives? -Shad -- Daniele Eccher Gruppo Darco - ICT Sistemi Via Ostiense 131/L Corpo B, 00154 Roma E-mail: daniele.ecc...@sociale.it tel : +39 06 57060 500 cell : +39 346 1426128 Ai sensi e per gli effetti delle disposizioni vigenti in materia di tutela della riservatezza personale (D.lgs 196/2003), questa @mail è destinata unicamente alle persone sopra indicate e le informazioni in essa contenute sono da considerarsi strettamente riservate.
