[Bacula-users] Director will not connect to a remote client

2016-03-14 Thread maaf4d
Oh, finally! We're getting somewhere. So, after I took out the addresses lines, 
everything is working fine. Next step for me is to get things working on 
CloudLab. Thank you all for your help. I think I can figure out the OpenStack 
issue on my own from here.

Thank you guys so much!

I forget to say that when I execute the "update slots" command, the 
director corrects the volume slots and Inchanger flag values but when 
the job starts the mount requests the incorrect slot.

Thanks for everything

John, thanks for the answer.
I set the retention period manually with the bconsole, sorry for not 
bringing that up.
Even if the volume was written yesterday, bacula changes the Inchanger 
flag and the slot number of the other volume marked as used with the 
values from the volume that's supposed to be recycled, and that behavior 
makes the recycle process to crash.

Paste from /etc/bacula/mtx-changer /dev/sg2 listall

S:11:EXXL5
S:12:F:DRC201L5
S:13:F:DRC202L5
S:14:F:XXL5

At first i thought that it was a retention/volume-use period 
misconfiguration, but then I checked that it was a random issue and I 
just can't think of anything else.

What do you think?

Thanks for your help.

Remember that when you change retention periods in the config files
this applies to new volumes only. To get it to apply to existing
volumes you need to execute the following 2 commands in bconsole
(answering the prompts for each command):

update pool from resource

update all volumes in pool

Although not your problem (since DRC202L5 was written yesterday), I
see that you have a 7 day retention period on these volumes. Not the
60 that is in your config.

You should double check that you don't have 127.0.0.1 or localhost
specified anywhere in your configurations. About the only way you are
going to get netstat output like:

tcp 0 0 127.0.1.1:9101  0.0.0.0:*  LISTEN  6591/bacula-dir
tcp 0 0 127.0.1.1:9102  0.0.0.0:*  LISTEN  1886/bacula-fd
tcp 0 0 127.0.1.1:9103  0.0.0.0:*  LISTEN  1865/bacula-sd

is if you are specifying the localhost name or ipnumber.

Also, that "xxAddress" line is optional and, as the documentation
indicates, it should bind to all addresses if nothing is specified.
Try dropping that line.


[by the way, could you please reply with context. it is very hard to
reply to your messages from the mailing list side when they don't

Hello
You said that is running in a cloud lab.
I suggest you first learn how to configure in a local machine/local network
and after that try in a cloud lab.
There no secret how to configure bacula, but first you need to know how
bacula works.

Mine works fine without that line. What does 'ip a' say on the sd
machine, does it actually have 'inet public.ip.address.xx'? Also 'ip
route': is there route to public.ip.net/mask?

Are you specifying an IPnumber on the "address" directives? E.g.,

   SDAddresses = { ip = {
  addr = 127.0.0.1; port = 9103; }
  }


If so, and you're using "127.0.0.1", then it will only listen in the
internal interface, not the external, which is what your netstat is
showing. I believe that there are options for this for all the
daemons.


from the current documentation:

SDAddress =  This directive is optional, and if it is
specified, it will cause the Storage daemon server (for Director and
File daemon connections) to bind to the specified IP-Address, which
is either a domain name or an IP address specified as a dotted
quadruple. If this directive is not specified, the Storage daemon
will bind to any available address (the default).

Sorry. I played with OpenStack a year or so ago and decided it wasn't
worth my time. So I've no idea, all I can tell you is 127/8 is the
loopback address as defined in RFC1122 and will not be routed outside

Are you connecting from(/to) localhost? 'cause that's what 127.0.1.1 is.
If it's not just localhost then this is what you want to see:

tcp   0   0   0.0.0.0:bacula-dir  0.0.0.0:*   LISTEN

[Bacula-users] Bacula Recycling process

2016-03-14 Thread Santiago Díaz Soler

Hi, everyone

I'm facing a weird issue on a bacula instance over Debian 8 (jessie).
I have a pool with two volumes and everytime that a volume is marked as 
"recycle" (14 days) bacula sets  InChanger and Slot values to 0. Also, 
the volume that was marked as Used gets the InChanger and Slot values of 
the soon to be recycled volume.

This behavior happens randomly, sometimes the recycle process gets no error.

+-++---+-++--+--+-+--+---+---+-+---+

My settings:

   Spool Directory = /var/bacula/spool/TAPE
   Maximum File Size = 16G
   Maximum Network Buffer Size = 262144
   Maximum block size = 2M
   Maximum Spool Size = 220G
   Maximum Job Spool Size = 32G


Don't touch minimum block size. It's fine as it is.

2MB is the maximum allowable in bacula, however you probably won't see 
much speed improvement past 500kB unless there's compressible data  in 
the train (it's faster, but only a little. I use it because I have tight 
backup windows and a lot of data to deal with)

FWIW Most LTO tape drives have 8MB(IBM) or 16MB(HP) write buffers.

Hello, it is software settings:

* Increasing max file size is "Maximum File Size". I use 16 GB for
  LTO-5 and for LTO-4 it should be similar. Every file mark means delay
  of several seconds (3-5?), so you can count, how big slow down for
  each file size it is in percents. On the other side, too big file size
  means slower seeks.

* Tape buffer size: It is "Maximum Block Size". It seems that in Linux
  it is a must to increase it. However, in FreeBSD, I have no problems
  with default 65536 bytes, where I have seen speeds over 250 MB/s with
  well compressable datas and without notable system load, so I did not
  increase it yet. For check, how big block you can use, try mt status -v.
  It is smaller of maxio and cpi_maxio. Without kernel patching, you could
  certainly use 131072 bytes. However, maxio could be increased easily
  (MAXPHYS kernel option) and cpi_maxio depends on driver, how well the
  value is obtained. Sometimes it is just a constant, which is known that
  it could be increased. But, I still think that it is not needed so much
  in FreeBSD.
