[Bacula-users] Problem with bscan: bscan JobId 0: Invalid slot=0
I'm trying to bscan an old volume: bscan -n bacula -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf -v -V MNT002L4 -s -m /dev/nst0 03-nov 09:47 bscan JobId 0: Invalid slot=0 defined in catalog for Volume MNT002L4 on HP-ULTRIUM (/dev/nst0). Manual load may be required. Mount Volume MNT002L4 on device HP-ULTRIUM (/dev/nst0) and press return when ready: then on bconsole I do: update slots Automatically selected Storage: HP1-8G2 Connecting to Storage daemon HP1-8G2 at 192.168.64.244:9103 ... 3306 Issuing autochanger slots command. Device HP-AUTOLDR has 8 slots. Connecting to Storage daemon HP1-8G2 at 192.168.64.244:9103 ... 3306 Issuing autochanger list command. Catalog record for Volume MNT002L4 updated to reference slot 1.

You could try the bconsole commands unmount and then mount to see if that fixes it. __Martin -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
Re: [Bacula-users] Problem with bscan: bscan JobId 0: Invalid slot=0
I solved in this way.. run bscan with the params, then it asks me for the manual mount of the volume, I stopped all bacula services,and then I run: /etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer /dev/sg3 load 1 /dev/nst0 0 where 1 is the number of the slot where the tape is located, I dunno why the mount command in bacula wasn't enough, i suppose couse mount command update something in the db? btw now bscan is running, hope this helps someone else :) ciao Mauro -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
Re: [Bacula-users] File retention, Job Retention and Volume retention

Suppose I've this bacula-dir.conf snapshot:
Client {
Name = foo-fd
Catalog = MyCatalog
File Retention = 12 months
Job Retention = 12 months
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
Pool {
Name = Daily
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 5 days
Maximum Volume Bytes = 800G
Volume Use Duration = 23h
Maximum Volumes = 5
}
Pool {
Name = Monthly
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 1 year
Maximum Volume Bytes = 800G
Volume Use Duration = 23h
Maximum Volumes = 1
}
It's correct to say that:
the jobs done in the pool daily will stay in the catalog for 5 days,
then purged. ( Even if in the fd definition I've 12 month, the Volume
retention when is passed
all jobs that are on the retented volume will be purged)
the monthly one to stay for one year and then purged is it correct?,
is that correct? (otherwhise my catalog will be vry big)
Yes, that's roughly correct. Bacula will prune the jobs in the daily pool
when it needs a new volume, so that will happen when you do a daily backup.

I use this dll every day on my own code but I build using Visual Studio 2008 and 2010 instead of mingw (versions from different compilers are incompatible). Is there a place to download a binary for the windows client or is it only linux crosscompile?

Does someone knows why sometimes Bacula marks Volumes in Error when it can't load a Virtual Tape (a file) because it's already use by another Virtual Device in the Virtual AutoChanger ? I specified Prefer Mounted Volumes = no in the JobDefs The programmers have added a different option for trying to use multiple drives in the same pool. Instead of using Prefer mounted volumes = no you should Maximum Concurrent Jobs per device a try http://www.bacula.org/5.0.x-manuals/en/main/main/New_Features_in_5_0_0.html#SECTION0051 I've been running with this newer config for more than a year now with much improved results. I used to get race conditions that would cause bacula to crash using prefer mounted volumes=no and concurrently running 10-15 jobs concurrently on two drives. Also, I believe Kern said that was an unsupported configuration a while back, but they do intend to fix any bugs found in the Maximum Concurrent Jobs per device code. Thanks, Bob. That is a sensible approach, come to think of it. Previously, Maximum Concurrent Jobs could only be set for the Storage in the Director's config. Placing a concurrent job restriction at the Device level in SD is a more practical solution. I was under the impression that without Prefer Mounted Volumes = no, Bacula would not select more than one tape from the same pool for concurrent jobs writing to the same pool. If that is not the case, then it seems to me that Prefer Mounted Volumes is likely deprecated. --- Josh Fisher -- RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users

I did not notice that the download existed for this because the CurrentFiles link does not contain this. Anyways I just tested this on my windows 7 box at work and I know the problem. It is a bad build. And what I mean by that for some reason the bacula-tray-monitor.exe is a debug build when it should be a release build. The project supplies the dlls for the release build but not for the debug build.

[Bacula-users] 5.2.1 bat missing Browse Cataloged Files?
Hey all, Recently upgraded to 5.2.1, things mostly running well. I notice in BAT that the Browse Cataloged Files icon in the toolbar is greyed out and there is now a bRestore Page. Has the Browse Cataloged Files feature been depreciated (I use it a lot), and if so, why is the icon not entirely absent. If not, is there something that I could have down in my build to accidentally excluded that feature? thanks!
