Re: [Bacula-users] Not Receiving Messages for Read-Only file system
Bill, Thank you for your response. The command output you asked for is 183MB, it is the message from below about 7 times a second every second from 10:21:30 10/2/2017 until we caught it and canceled the job at 22:30:05 10/02/2017. I attached a file with the heading and ending information. The primary problem is that the job is waiting on media intervention, but does not produce an email for the warning. With the write protect on, it is just like the tape is never there. All jobs queue, and we end up with a huge mess. If we get a message, then we can remove the tape, remove the write protect, and then wait for all the jobs to finish. I would expect that the Read-Only volume warning from mount.c would be at a severity level to produce the same media intervention email message as "operator = al...@somewhere.com = mount". Let me know if that additional context helps with another solution.

Thank you in advance. Hi Jim, The job summary should have some non-zero number of "SD Errors:", and the Termination status should (probably) be "Backup OK -- with warnings" Take a look with: * llist joblog jobid=2801 Since it is only some "minor" issue during the backup, Bacula does not fail the job, it just logs the issue, and moves on. Because Bacula will set the JobStatus in the catalog the same as a "Backup OK" job (JobStatus=T), there is no way to trigger warnings by simply querying the catalog for JobStatus=W (for example), so I have all backup jobs send the emails to my helpdesk, which is configured to look for "Backup OK -- with warnings" and flag those jobs as 'bad' which need to be investigated. Hope this helps...

[Bacula-users] Bacula Client for Windows not starting up
Hi there, I am trying to install the latest version of Bacula Client for windows on a Windows 10 machine. The problem I seem to be encountering on the machine is that when I run the client install on the machine, it does not seem to load up the installer window. Looking on the task manager, it shows bacula client installer app is 'running' but not going further. This is localized to one computer and I can't seem to find why it seems to be stuck. The process tree shows Bacula running 'conhost.exe', but only 1 thread. Running this on another Windows 10 machine, using Sysinternal's Procmon, I can see the installer running two temp threads which call conhost, which then close out to open up the installer window. The computer I am having an issue with only shows 1 thread for conhost.exe, which is still running, but I get no installer window. Any recommendations on what I should be looking for that may be the culprit? -- Scott Kasai College of Engineering Engineering Computing Infrastructure University of California Santa Barbara Email: ka...@engineering.ucsb.edu -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
