Re: [Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes - But auto labeling is enabled? [SOLVED]

Otherwise if I don't then wouldn't the first attempt to run a backup fail, because that disk volume exists? DiskBackupPool-001 as a file already exists, so will bacula just overwrite it? Or you could do this, as the bacula manual describes: Section 41.3 Re-initializing the Catalog Database After you have done some initial testing with Bacula, you will probably want to re-initialize the catalog database and throw away all the test Jobs that you ran. To do so, you can do the following: cd install-directory ./drop_mysql_tables ./make_mysql_tables Please note that all information in the database will be lost and you will be starting from scratch. If you have written on any Volumes, you must write an end of file mark on the volume so that Bacula can reuse it. Do so with: (stop Bacula or unmount the drive) mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind mt -f /dev/nst0 weof Where you should replace /dev/nst0 with the appropriate tape drive device name for your machine. If you're writing to files on disk you can just delete the volumes without any issues after clearing the catalog.

[Bacula-users] incorrect User specified spool size reached message
I'm running Bacula 3.0.2 to back up a dozen of Linux servers
and a few Windows ones. Recently, messages like this started
showing up in the backup logs:
04-Jan 22:10 vm-backup-sd JobId 11043: Spooling data ...
04-Jan 22:11 vm-backup-sd JobId 11043: User specified spool size reached.

The number of despooled bytes stays around the same during one
backup run (all jobs of one day) but decreases substantially
from one day to the next. For example:
03-Jan 22:29 vm-backup-sd JobId 11028: User specified spool size reached.
03-Jan 22:29 vm-backup-sd JobId 11028: Writing spooled data to Volume.

Transfer rate = 15.16 M bytes/second
03-Jan 22:29 vm-backup-sd JobId 11028: Spooling data again ...
My storage configuration looks like this:
Device {
Name = LTO1
Media Type = LTO1
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
# OfflineOnUnmount = yes; # when unmounted, eject tape
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
SpoolDirectory = /home/backup/spool;
MaximumSpoolSize = 50G;
}
So, taken literally, that message is just plain wrong. The 16 MB
spooled are far less than my specified spool size of 50 GB.
I checked the spool directory for stale files, and it is empty.
The filesystem it resides on has 98 GB of free space.
There are no concurrent jobs. (Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1)
What other possible reasons are there for that message?

I checked the spool directory for stale files, and it is empty. The filesystem it resides on has 98 GB of free space. There are no concurrent jobs. (Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1) What other possible reasons are there for that message? At one time, was MaximumSpoolSize set to 16GB? If so, did you restat bacula-sd after making that change? The SD config file hasn't been touched for more than a year, and I'm pretty sure I never set MaximumSpoolSize as low as 16M. Nevertheless, restarting bacula-sd sounds like a good idea. It has been running for quite a long time and accumulated an impressive CPU time of 2024:10. Perhaps there's some sort of leak.

I have a Tandberg T40+ Tapeloader with HP LTO-5 tape drive connected to
QLogic Corp. ISP2532-based 8Gb Fibre Channel to PCI Express HBA on a Dell
2950 running Ubuntu Server 10.10. The kernel version is 2.6.35-24-server.
The autoloader device number changes sometimes with reboot. When I installed
the server it was /dev/sg4 and now it is /dev/sg2. The tape drive is at
/dev/st0 and /dev/nst0.
the SG number depends entirely on the order things are picked up in. So
does ST/NST for that matter. The trick there is to use a script to link
each detecetd ST to a WWID entry and use that in bacula-sd.conf
Bacula does use ST - more specifically it locks to whatever you have
defined in bacula-sd - which means if you put an incorrect entry it will
use it (GIGO)
My question is how can I fix the problem of device number changing with
reboots?
Like this (from my configuration on RHEL5.5):
bacula-sd.conf
[snip]

Drive Index = 0
Device Type = Tape
Media Type = LTO5
AutoChanger = yes;

LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
Volume Poll Interval = 7200
Alert Command = sh -c '/usr/local/bin/gettapeinfo.sh
/etc/bacula/DEVICES/MSSLY8-0'
Spool Directory = /var/bacula/spool/MSSLY8-0
Maximum File Size = 10GB
Maximum Network Buffer Size = 65536
Maximum Spool Size = 250G
Maximum Job Spool Size = 50G
}
[snip]
The /etc/bacula/DEVICES entries are there simply for readability and are
symlinks to the WWIDs of the tapes:

Note that only the SG of trhe changer is listed above. That's where
/usr/local/bin/gettapeinfo.sh comes in to find the sg of individual tape

export DEVICE=`ls -l $INDIRECT | cut -f2 -d\ | cut -f3 -d/`
export GENERIC=`ls /sys/class/scsi_tape/$DEVICE/device | grep

echo $1 $INDIRECT $DEVICE $GENERIC
tapeinfo -f /dev/$GENERIC
smartctl -H -d scsi -l error /dev/$GENERIC
===
Ideally RHEL's udev rules would put the sg entry in /dev/tape/by-id and
I wouldn't have to kludge the script...

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula configration for FC LTO-5 tape drive
Is there any way I can test the full capacity of tape with compression? That question does not make total sense. I mean compression is dependent on the data you supply. On one tape you can get 5:1 on a second tape you can get 1.1:1 depending on your data. For me I average 1.5:1 compression. And that seems to be the expectation even though the standard claims the overly optimistic 2:1.

[Bacula-users] REPOST Can't connect to Remote.
Installed Bacula 5.0.2 on Fedora 14 (called Kira). Previously had it installed and working on Fedora 11 (called Beech) I copied all the conf files from Beech to Kira (adjusted them for new Machine names), debugged normal errors and Bacula started. Did a backup on Kira without problems. Went to test on Ladymax (on other side of firewall - public machine): Port 9102 works both ways (only running bacula-fd) Port 9101 and 9103 work from Ladymax to Kira Both using 5.0.2 (FD for Ladymax) Started Ladymax in Debug mode: /sbin/bacula-fd -c/etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf -f -d20 -m -v -s -dt 29-Dec-2010 09:20:44 ladymax.sbanetweb.com-fd: filed.c:275-0 filed: listening on port 9102 Bacula on Kira won't find Ladymax. Error is kira.sbanetweb.com-dir JobId 14: Fatal error: Socket error on Storage command: ERR=Connection reset by peer 29-Dec 10:19 kira.sbanetweb.com-dir JobId 14: Fatal error: Network error with FD during Backup: ERR=Connection reset by peer 29-Dec 10:19 Remember, Ladymax works under a Fedora 11 install... I even turned off iptables on Kira (inside of firewall), to no avail. I then loaded Bacula client (5.0.2) on a differnt Fedora 14 box which is behind the firewall (EMMA) and is 1 IP address different from KIRA. I took down iptables (since it is redundant and to minimize possible errors). Same basic error: Fatal error: bsock.c:135 Unable to connect to Client: emma.sbanetweb.com-fd on 192.68.0.30:9102. ERR=Interrupted system call There is nothing I can find using Google. Some help or additional pointers would be helpful. Thank you.
