Re: [Bacula-users] bacula-dir run failure on Ubuntu 12.04.02
Zitat von uhog-v...@spamex.com: Hi folks, For what it's worth, I tried compiling Bacula 5.0.3 on Ubuntu 12.0.4 today. I currently have Bacula 5.0.3 running on Ubuntu 10.0.4 on another server. The compilation failed on 12.0.4 for the director though the SD and FD both compiled. I played around a bit but then decided just for kicks to reinstall this new machine back to 10.0.4 and try that. After that, I did an update, and then loaded the build-essential, libncurses5-dev, and libmysqlclient-dev packages. I then built 5.2.13 and it builds and runs with no problem. So whatever is going on must be related to something happening with Ubuntu packaging at 12.0.4 that causes Bacula to not link in everything it needs. Since my primary goal is to get moved to different hardware, I'm just going to continue running on 10.0.4 on the new hardware with the 5.2.13 Bacula since 10.0.4 is supported until midway through 2015. After I get everything migrated and stabilized, maybe I'll play with debugging this 12.0.4 problem again in a virtual machine or something in my spare time. Thanks again for the ideas, I learned a bit more about digging around in the symbols on linux so it was worth that anyway. If I do get back to it and find a solid answer, I'll update the list. Mike Some time ago i build 5.2.13 the Debian/Ubuntu way as .deb packages on Ubuntu 12.04. I can provide you a link for download without any warranty of course. Maybe i can even dig out the thing which have to be done to get the deb compiled. Regards Andreas -- Get your SQL database under version control now!

Re: [Bacula-users] TSM5.5 to Bacula migration.
On 08/01/13 22:33, Steven Haigh wrote: Hi all, I'm looking at migrating my existing TSM5.5 backup solution to Bacula. I'm hoping some people could point me in the right direction. I currently have TSM set up with a 40Gb disk volume on the local server, which is then migrated to a group of eSATA drives. On the eSATA drives I have volumes (usually 300-400Gb in size) that I VARY ONLINE via a udev script when I plug the drive in. The idea is that the 40Gb on the local disk acts as a buffer which is once a week migrated to the volumes on the eSATA drives: I'm trying to figure out how to replicate this in Bacula - however I haven't had much success at this stage. I did find some documents that are nearly 4 years old in relation to using removable media - but a lot changes in 4 years! Does anyone do something like this already? How can I handle the eSATA drives? Is there a better way? Hi Steven... I believe that you can accomplish what you are looking for using Bacula's Copy Jobs, Josh Fisher's excellent vchanger add-on, and a little hard work. :) Obviously it is more complicated than the four or five steps listed below, but here is the basic concept and process: You can take the 40GB local storage and create several small(ish) (5GB?) Bacula file volumes. (40GB seems VERY small to me) These file volumes would be added into a pool called something like DailyLocal with a short retention period (~1 week?) so that they will be available during the next week's run (are you sure it's not 400GB? :) in which case the retention period can be set higher. :) Create your daily backup job to write to the file volumes in the DailyLocal pool on the local storage Configure Bacula for off-site backups with auto-mounting, removable backups and full volume encryption: http://www.revpol.com/node/140 Create a Copy job that will run once/week and copy the week's jobs to the removable drives (see section 24.1 of Bacula's main.pdf file) Those are the steps. If you run into any specific problems along the way, you can just ask here, or join some of us in the #bacula channel on freenode.net Hope this helps! -- Bill Arlofski Reverse Polarity, LLC http://www.revpol.com/ -- Not responsible for anything below this line -- -- Get your SQL database under version control now!

[Bacula-users] duplicate job storage device bug?
Hey all, Figured I'd throw this out there before opening a ticket in case this is already known or I'm just confused. We use duplicate job control for the following reason: We run nightly Incrementals of _all_ jobs. Then rather than running Fulls on a cyclic schedule, we run them back-to-back, injecting a few at a time via scripts. Note, we also have two tape libraries (and two SDs), one for Incremental Pools and one for Full Pools. Where duplicate job control comes in is that we want a running Incremental to be canceled if a Full of the same job is launched on any given night since the Full, in our case, should take precedence and be run immediately. What we see is that the Full does indeed cancel the running Incremental and then runs itself, HOWEVER the Full job takes on the storage properties (storage device) of the canceled Incremental job rather than using it's own settings. The Full job then expects its Full Pool tape to be in the Incremental tape library, which it is not, and the job stalls for operator intervention. Here's some config snippets: Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2 Allow Duplicate Jobs = no Cancel Lower Level Duplicates = yes Cancel Running Duplicates = no Cancel Queued Duplicates = no Log snippets: (incremental launches) 03-Aug 04:05 DIRECTOR JobId 316646: Start Backup JobId 316646, Job=CLIENT.2013-08-02_22.01.01_50 03-Aug 04:05 DIRECTOR JobId 316646: Using Device L100-Drive-0 to write.
