Automatically follow symbolic links threatens to uncontrolled looping. For example when someone (user) will make a simple command: $ ln -s . a If you want to backup a resources which was followed by symbolic link you have to add this resources to the FileSet definition. this sounds good for me.

Re: [Bacula-users] Accurate mode problem, multiple jobs on one client

I am having problems with an incremental backup using the accurate
option.
Accurate option fails with your setup. It was not designed for that, it
must fail if it honors it's purpose. If the file set changes, it must
consider the missing files deleted, and mark them such. If they suddenty
appear again, it must back them all again.
--jarif
*Sorry I've been having problems with the mailing list, hence delay.*
Indeed what you describe is how I expect and want accurate mode to work.
What I should have made clearer is that the files which are suddenly
backed up again have ALWAYS been supplied by the script. I know this
for certain from looking at the output log of the script, as well as
thoroughly testing the script. The script selects files based on
include and exclude within directories, which have not changed
recently.
The job runs fine until another job on that client with a separately
defined fileset is run. After that files which were included with the
previous jobs and are still included with this job are backed up
again.
Thanks,
Ed
I have two jobs for the client both of which use a script to generate
a file list of individual files (no recursion) is used. The scripts
can give different lists for each job and are specified in separate
filesets. One job is for offsite backing up with around 70GB for a
full backup and one is a local backup of around 600GB. This setup has
been working happily for months. No tapes are involved, files only.
All has been working well until suddenly I noticed the offsite backup
job was backing up over 1GB one day, the normal being around 10-20mb.
Naturally I went on the hunt for the misplaced large file, but I
didn't find anything. Looking at the logs I noticed that the jobs had
backed up files that had been there since the original full backup.
Eventually I ended up rolling back the database to check if this
solved the problem, perhaps a corruption. This seemed to work, the
manually triggered offsite job ran as expected. The next morning same
problem. I eventually discovered after rolling back the database quite
a few more times, that after the other job for that client ran (the
local job) the offsite job would then go wrong and I needed to roll back.
I have also tested creating a dummy job for that client which doesn't
use accurate and the fileset is a single file. Again running this
causes the specified behaviour. Running a job for another client
doesn't cause any problems. To clarify the jobs are still showing up
as incremental, this isn't a retention issue.
I've set the file deamon to debug and seen that for the files it's
backing up which shouldn't be backed up accurate.c reports them as
(not found). It seems as though the accurate list is disappearing or
being altered by running another job on the client.
Here is the job and filest definition:
#Offsite
Job {
Name = OffsiteBackup
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
Client = elephant-fd
FileSet = elephant_offsite
Storage = File-offsite
Messages = Standard
Pool = File-offsite-pool

#Bootstrap file (Use network directory)

#Use accurate mode

}
#Offsite

[Bacula-users] Simple restore only GUI for Windows
Hello List we are testing Bacula as new Backup/Restore and one point we like to have is a simple file restore GUI for windows so lokal server operator is able to restore files backuped on the same machine, but should not be able to manage the backup server like starting jobs for other servers or restore files from other server backups.
