[Bacula-users] documentation old versions

2009-02-09 Thread François Mehault

Hi All,

My Bacula is currently in version 2.0.3 and i would like to know what are the 
main features add between my version and the last version 2.4.3. I find some 
information on this page http://www.bacula.org/en/?page=news about version 
2.4.3, 2.4.2, 2.4.1. But for the previous version, I found nothing, I just need 
the main features or critical bug fixed. Is-it possible to find the same 
information for 2.4.3, 2.4.2, 2.4.1 on http://www.bacula.org/en/?page=news for 
others versions in another place ?

Thanks,

François Mehault

what you are looking for has been implemented in the SVN code in November; it 
thus is part in the most recent 2.5 beta releases and will be part of the 
upcoming 3.0 release.

You *cannot* use the new Server 2008 backup for that purpose.
Its functionality is considerably reduced compared to NTBackup,
and backing up Microsoft Exchange databases is one of the
features that have been dropped.

 If i run an restore small like 10MB, the restore runs about 10kpbs, if
 more small more slow..

Sounds quite normal. On small jobs, the constant overhead (positioning
the tape etc.) will have much more impact.

 My bacula is 1.38 running on an freebsd.

That's a very old version. You might want to consider updating.

 What can be wrong?

Perhaps nothing.

Have you checked the release notes from SourceForge download area? There are 
separate release notes for each version, including list of bug fixes. Check 
the base bacula area first, though you were using some os-dependent 
packages.

To follow certain bug fixes more precisely, have a look at bugs.bacula.og

The current tape Verify checks the meta-data.  Thus it does not 100% verify 
that the data on the volume is all present.

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes.

2009-02-09 Thread KNOPS Manfred
Hello together,

 

I hope someone can help me.

Last Saturday bacula should make fullbackup for 22 clients.

It starts at 20:05 with the first client.

At Sunday morning 04:04 it send me messages like this:

08-Feb 04:04 backupserver-sd JobId 232: Job
helios-Automatic-Backup.2009-02-07_20.05.21 waiting. Cannot find any
appendable volumes.

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

Storage:  helios-Device (/backup/helios)

Pool: helios-Pool

Media type:   File

 

I have no idea where the problem is.

This job works fine last January.

 

Here is the job definition:

# /etc/bacula/helios-backup.conf

 

#

# Job definition for host helios

#

Job {

  Name = helios-Automatic-Backup

  Type = Backup

  Client = helios

  FileSet = helios-FileSet

  Schedule = WeeklyCycle

  Storage = helios-Storage

  Messages = Standard

  Pool = helios-Pool

}

 

The fileset definition:

#

# Fileset definition for host helios

#

FileSet {

  Name = helios-FileSet

  Include {

Options {

  signature = SHA1

  compression = GZIP9

  @/etc/bacula/excludedAbaqusFiles.conf

  }

File = /etc

File = /var/lib/ldap

File = /local/data/home

  }

}

 

The pool definition. It's the same definition like all other client pool
definition, excepting the hostname:

#

# Pool Definition for host helios

#

Pool {

Name = helios-Pool

Pool Type = Backup

Recycle = yes

AutoPrune = yes

Volume Retention = 1 months

Use Volume Once = yes

Maximum Volume Bytes = 4509715660.8

Label Format = helios-

Maximum Volumes = 31

}

 

The schedule definition:

## When to do the backups, full backup on first sunday of the month,

##  differential (i.e. incremental since full) every other sunday,

##  and incremental backups other days

Schedule {

  Name = WeeklyCycle

  Run = Full first saturday at 20:05

  Run = Differential second-fifth saturday at 20:05

  Run = Incremental monday-friday at 20:05

}

 

The job starts and generate some volumes.

list volumes jobid=232 

Jobid 232 used 7 Volume(s):
helios-0331|helios-0332|helios-0333|helios-0334|helios-0335|helios-0336|

422,492 | 31,446,205,296 | f |

 

This job should backup 70GByte files

5 T diskspace are enough, I think:

fileserver:/etc/bacula # df -h

FilesystemSize  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/sdb5 9,9G  3,3G  6,1G  35% /

/dev/sda1 2,0T  237G  1,7T  13% /fileserverShare

/dev/sda2 6,0T  781G  5,0T  14% /backup

 

In www I red that I can fix this instead I prune some older volumes of
helios.

I did this. But nothing happens.

Then I red about storage deamon problems. So I restarted the storage
daemon.

After that, bacula stopped this job and started the next job.

 

Bacula directory and sotarge daemon are installed on the same machine.

An opensuse 11.0 x86_64 pc.

Bacula installed in version.

fileserver:/etc/bacula # rpm -qi bacula-mysql-2.4.3-1

Summary : Bacula - The Network Backup Solution

Description :

 

But it is the i586 package. Not the x86_64 version.

The x86_64 version didn't work on this machine.

 

I checked the number of volumes for other clients.

Other pools containes more volumes.

The volume number isn't   999.

 

After I restart the storage daemon it starts the next job. This job
generates a volume called john-0338.

 

This job was the second full backup job for this machine.

 

So, where is the problem?

 

Regards

Manfred

[Bacula-users] How to delete volumes ?

2009-02-09 Thread ML mail

Hello,

Is there a command in bconsole to delete all volumes for a specific client ? 

I am doing some test backups and would like to to start again from zero and I 
guess simply deleting the files from the harddisk is not a good idea.

Many thanks in advance for the help.

Re: [Bacula-users] Debian/Ubuntu and openssl

2009-02-09 Thread Lukasz Szybalski
Hello,

So it seems like openssl is already back in main repository. (I think
it was in contrib before).
Here are the bugs for debian. I don't see a bug for openssl support.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=bacula

What you are saying is that bacula should be compiled with with tls
support? If yes we should submit a bug request.

I'm cc'ing a maintainer.

Thanks,
Lucas

It is all about this: http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2007/07/msg00144.html

Wether or not the package is compiled with tls support is really up to the 
maintainer, but in Debian Etch it was
(The version used in Sarge did not have tls support).

My understanding was, that Kern changed the Bacula code to solve the problem.

I think a lot of people are using the Debian packages, either in Debian or in

become annoying, if unnecessary.

:-)

For me the problem has been solved for quite a lot time (I rewrote all 3rd 
party GPL code that we used in the source). Unfortunately, the problem is not 
yet resolved for Debian users, because the solution is in the development 
code which is not yet released for production.   It is currently undergoing 
beta testing, and hopefully it will be released in late March or April.

 Folks,
 
   I am waiting for the new release of bacula so that I can
 use copy feature. Currently I run full backup twice. First
 to tape, no compression by bacula, compression is done by
 tape drive. 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.

  Can anyone shed more light on this?

  Thanks.

 The problem described in the email below is probably an important
 data loss problem due (most likely) to an I/O error, but more
 importantly due to a misconfigured tape drive.  From the information
 I see below, it appears to me that you have lost significant data. 
 This is probably due to the fact that the HBA or the tape drive is
 running in asynchronous mode (cached or buffered) while Bacula
 *requires* you to run everything concerning tapes in synchronous mode
 -- please see the Tape testing chapter for more information.

 This data loss due to asynchronous mode will probably also occur when
 your tape fills.
   
The verify job hasn't found any errors, so it seems that all data
that was backed up could be read.
  
   Verify will not find missing data, unless you restored everything and
   compared it to the original, so I am still a bit skeptical ...
 
  What is the purpose of Verify then?
 
 The current tape Verify checks the meta-data.  Thus it does not 100% verify 
 that the data on the volume is all present.

Ah, thanks.  I thought it recomputed the digest, but I see that only happens
for file verification, not volume verification.

Re: [Bacula-users] Setup advices for some heterogenous set of server

2009-02-09 Thread Thomas Manson
Hi Arno,

  Thanks for your answers, and sorry for the delay to answer back.

  To answer your questions :

  I've control (directly or indirectly) of the firewall, but I'd rather use
a ssh tunnels. My homeServer has access to other servers with certificate
authentication.
  I can set explicit  rule to the firewall to allow acces to the needed
port, but ssh is better on security concern.

  Btw, when compression is done ? by the client or by the storage?  because,
in this last case, ssh built in compression could be a nice help.

  Each blue 'backbone' on the schema represents a /24 network and all
servers are in this subnet. All server has public IP address and an FQDN.


  Over the servers, the amount of data should not be that uge (only website,
configuration script, no logfile or mail inbox).
  In case of machine crash, each machine setup is documented, so that to
resume the service, I've to reinstall the system (less than an hour for the
secondary DNS server) and restore data.
  Each machine have or will have a mirror server on another physical site.

   It's probably not the best solution, but given my mean, I can only afford
that solution.

  I also wanted to set this kind of backup :

  1 mounthly full backup of the file system.
  1 daily incremental backup of the filesystem.
  1 daily full backup of databases.

  because, in my case, the filesystem isn't modifyed heavily, most of the
udpates are done in the databases. I think it's suitable for my specific
case, but there are maybe some convients I didn't see


About the setup itself :  The more I read, the more I get confused... the
doc is not easy to get a simple and working configuration.
I've read more than 150 pages, and still have no concrete material to
configure a simple setup...

I'm quite found of learning by example, which you usually find for every
software, but here... not that much indeed...

the only tuto I've found :

  http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/bacula1.htm

doesn't explain really much things.



What I'd like, is to

1/ enable a working backup on the homeServer (director hosting)

test it, play with it  with some simple test case like :

   make a backup of a directory,
   delete (or move outside the dir) one file in the directory,
   restore the file.

   make a backup of a directory
   modify a file
   make a incremental backup
   modify the same file

   make a incremental backup
   modify the same file

walk though the different 'version' of this file.

It would be nice, if bacula team could setup a vmware using a linux distro
like ubuntu with several test case pre-setup to speed up the learning curve.

2/ Once I've setup the backup for the server, add a remote client (through
ssh) (and next add all others)

I find it better to have on directory per client (can't explain why, but
sounds safer),

I've read the basic volume managment chapter which tell I should add a
device per client with a Type per Device so that everything isn't mixed up.

Well I'll explore this later..

I'll try now to get something working on the homeServer itself.

tomorrow, I'll probably setup a ubuntu on vmware to practice some test case
and may publish it on my blog (well the size of the vmware could be an issue
;o)

I've attached a simple diagram that represent the network as it will

 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

[Bacula-users] Monthly Schedule Question

2009-02-09 Thread Hillel Seltzer
Hello,

Is it possible to specify a schedule to use a monthly pool 
on the first weekday of a month, and other pools for the rest
of the month?  If the first of the month is a weekday (Mon-Fri),
then just use that day.  If the first of the month is on 
Sat or Sun, then wait until Monday.  This is different than
the typical examples which usually specify the first Sunday
or Monday of the month for the monthly pool.

Thanks.

[Bacula-users] Finding performance issues

2009-02-09 Thread (private) HKS
Hi all,

I'm relatively new to Bacula, but so far have been very impressed with
it. Right now, I'm backing up three separate data centers to Dell
2950s with 3TB SATA RAID 5 disk arrays. I'm running Bacula 2.2.8 on
OpenBSD 4.4 with Postgresql 8.3.3.

The only trouble I'm having is terrifically bad performance. As I
implied, this is backing up to an onboard disk array. My typical
backup is about 360MB, and the reported transfer rate is usually
around 1.5MB/s (despooling is around 30-40MB/s). This server is
connected to its clients via gigabit LAN, and these speeds are
suffered by all clients: good (dual quadcore Xeons with 16GB of RAM
and 15k SAS RAID 5 array) and bad (Soekris 5501 with solid-state CF
storage) alike; Windows 2003, FreeBSD 7, and OpenBSD 4.4; same or
different subnets.

Can anybody make suggestions for tracking down this performance
bottleneck? Below is a brief list of the steps I've taken, and the
results. Thanks for the help.

-HKS



Steps:
-
- Disabled spooling - transfer rate remained at 1-1.5MB/s
- Tested disk performance with dd - 100-200MB/s
- Disabled FileSet compression altogether - no change
- Enabled soft updates on /backups file system - no change
- Disabled GZIP compression - no change

[Bacula-users] Setup using SSH tunnel - HOWTO

2009-02-09 Thread Kevin Keane
I set up a bacula client through an SSH tunnel, and have a few 
improvements over the documented method. So I wrote a new one - if there 
is interest, feel free to snag it for your documentation!

--

Using an SSH tunnel with Bacula

Credit goes to Stephan Holl and Joshua Eugler, who wrote earlier 
documents and scripts that document the basic idea of an SSH tunnel.

This is a similar approach, but different in some subtle but important 
details. Most importantly, this approach allows you to use the same 
Storage daemon for both local clients and clients through an SSH tunnel.

This is important because you can use the same pool and schedule for both.

I also changed the way SSH is invoked to make it self-closing. The 
tunnel will simply disappear as soon as the backup is completed.

1. What you need

On the bacula-director side:
- bacula director running as user bacula, and fully configured and 
working using the standard ports 9101-9103. You can only have one 
Storage Daemon in your configuration. Make sure the Storage resource 
uses an FQDN; do not use IP addresses.
- openssh
- an available port to listen on, in addition to bacula's standard 
9101-9103. I chose 9112.
- the firewall must be open on localhost, ports 9101 and 9103.

On the bacula client side:
- bacula-fd installed.
- a user account with minimal permissions. Let's call it tunneluser. 
This account will only serve as end point for the SSH tunnel. For 
security reasons, DO NOT use the root account.
- The firewall must be open on localhost, port 9101, 9102 and 9103. It 
is not necessary to open these ports on the network.

2. Setting up OpenSSH on the server side
First, we need to set up ssh for the bacula user, since this is the user 
name the director uses:

Log on as user bacula (you may have to log on as root, and then use 
the su - bacula command to actually become user bacula). You should be 
in bacula's home directory - probably /var/lib/bacula.

mkdir -p ~/.ssh
chmod 700 ~/.ssh
Also verify that .ssh is owned by user bacula, group bacula.

Now we need to create an SSH key pair into this new directory. Make sure 
that you do not use a pass phrase. We use the file names bacula_tunnel 
and bacula_tunnel.pub for the private and public keys, respectively.

cd ~/.ssh
ssh-keygen -b 2048 -C SSH Tunnel for bacula -t rsa -f bacula_tunnel -N 

Create a file config in the ~/.ssh directory with the following 
content (yourclientFQDN is the actual FQDN that SSH will use to connect 
to the client. yourclientname should simply be the same as 
yourclientFQDN, although in some cases you could choose a different 
value for it).

Host yourclientFQDN
AddressFamily   inet
ConnectionAttempts  10
ForwardAgentno
ForwardX11  no
ForwardX11Trusted   no
GatewayPortsyes
HostBasedAuthentication no
HostKeyAliasyourclientname
HostNameyourclientFQDN
IdentityFile~/.ssh/bacula_tunnel.pub
PasswordAuthentication  no
Protocol2
ServerAliveCountMax 3
ServerAliveInterval 15
TCPKeepAliveno
Usertunneluser


Just in case permissions got messed up on the way, fix them in the .ssh 
directory

chmod 400 ~/.ssh/*


Transfer the public key (the file bacula_tunnel.pub) to your client 
machine, using whatever method you like (USB, FTP, scp, file shares, 
...). IMPORTANT: DO NOT TRANSFER THE PRIVATE KEY!


3. Setting up OpenSSH on the client side.

install the SSH public key into the tunneluser account on the client 
machine:
cd /home/tunneluser
mkdir -p /home/tunneluser/.ssh
touch /home/tunneluser/.ssh/authorized_keys
# Make sure you use the double  redirection, or you will destroy any
# previous authorized keys if they existed.
cat wherever/bacula_tunnel.pub /home/tunneluser/.ssh/authorized_keys
chmod 700 /home/tunneluser/.ssh
chmod f00 /home/tunneluser/.ssh/*
chown -R tunneluser:tunneluser /home/tunneluser/.ssh

4. Complete OpenSSH setup

Before you can use OpenSSH, you need to complete one more step: store 
the host's fingerprint. On the server side, log on as user bacula (or 
use su - bacula).

Then use ssh to connect to your client. Note that you MUST use the same 
FQDN you used in the config file earlier.
ssh yourclientFQDN

ssh will now prompt you to accept the fingerprint. Once you are at the 
command prompt, you can type exit to leave ssh.

5. Bacula setup, client side.

On the server, find the Address= lines for the Storage resource. Make 
sure the address is a FQDN on the private network, and do not resolve 
from the client.

On the client, edit your /etc/hosts file by adding the following line:
127.0.0.1storageFQDN

Note: what this does is allow the file daemon (FD) to find the storage 
daemon (SD). Normally, the SD is of course hidden behind a firewall and 
inaccessible -

[Bacula-users] Bacula restore incomplete

2009-02-09 Thread Keith
Hi there,

We are running bacula 2.2.8 on an Ubuntu 8.04 distro. We are backing up a 
Windows
2003Server, 5 XP PC's and the Ubuntu server. A relatively small system.

Everything appears to be set up ok. The Director is running happily with
reports coming through on e-mail. The Server2003 machine holds our teacher
Users directory with 25 teachers (each with their own directory. We also
back up the Mail directory - also 25 teachers. When we restore (as a trial
to test it) we find only a few Directories reappearing for the Users and
Mail directories. Why is this? I am at a complete loss.

We are postulating that only the Incrementals are restored??? Any ideas?
