Re: [Bacula-users] Any Bacula admins running Client / Director on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard?
Not yet, but I'll be eager to know about your experience. I do recall some notes about compiling the entire package on the Dev List, but not sure if that was in relation to 10.5.x or Bacula 2.2.x on 10.4.x.

Re: [Bacula-users] Is HFS+ support working currently?
It's always appreciated - helps to let me know I'm not the only one who makes mistakes. Erich On Oct 15, 2007, at 6:28 PM, Adam Compton wrote: Hello, I am replying to this thread to detail the solution I found to this problem for posterity. Specifically, as stated in the Bacula manual: However, one additional point is that in the case that no match was found, Bacula will use the options found in the last Options resource. The configuration I am using for production is slightly different from the one detailed here; specifically, the hfsplussupport=yes option is in its own Options clause, and the Excludes are specified in another, separate Options clause immediately before the list of files. The solution I found was to move the Options clause with the Excludes in it to the beginning of the FileSet definition, so that the very last line before my File directive is the terminating end-brace of the Options clause with the hfsplussupport=yes option included. Presumably, this forces Bacula to apply that option to the following File directive. This is what I get for cleaning up a configuration file before posting it where other people will see it. :-( Adam Compton Network Administrator Sierra Canyon School Adam Compton wrote: Hello, I am having issues with restoring Mac OS X resource forks stored on a HFS+ filesystem. snip -- --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Bacula-users] bacula beta can't find qt on compile
This is from the Dev List and straight from Kern... It may address the issue you are experiencing. Hello, Scott Barninger brought my attention to the fact that the way I was dealing with including the third party qwt Graphic library for Qt into bat doesn't play well with rpms and such. As a consequence, in the current SVN, I have removed the code that builds that library within the Bacula source code tree during the ./configure process. In order to build Bacula with bat, you either need to build and install the qwt packages on your system, or alternatively, you can download the latest depkgs package (depkgs-11Jul07.tar.gz) and build it. It now includes the qwt package. In addition, you will need to add a new ./configure option, which is: --with-qwt=directory where directory is replaced by the directory under which Bacula can find lib/... and include/... that include the files for qwt. For example, if you have installed qwt on your system, it will by default install in /usr/include and /usr/lib. In that case, you would use: --with-qwt=/usr If you use depkgs, you would use: --with-qwt=.../depkgs/qwt e.g. I use: --with-qwt=$HOME/bacula/depkgs/qwt Currently, if Bacula does not find qwt, or you don't supply the above option, bat will not be built. Please don't forget that you also need --enable-bat on the ./ configure line. Best regards, Kern On Jul 11, 2007, at 12:15 PM, Megan Kispert wrote: I think I did something wrong.

There are also the mtx-changer scripts and some modifications that will alert you to tape changes (see notes in the source code for more details.) Again, this is to point you in the right direction - not intending to be vague - it's just been a while. There are a number of people on the list who can give very precise information. Hoping this will prime the pump for you. Erich On Apr 29, 2007, at 4:28 AM, John Steel wrote: I am still trying to do my first bacula backup to tape, its a 80G folder from 2006 disk based backups.

Re: [Bacula-users] Job is waiting for an appendable volume
I do know that in bcosole, you must mount the drive and then issue label to label the media mounted in the volume. Very similar with disc backups if you aren't automatically labeling the volumes. Your choice what to name it. Bacula will then use the newly created volume for the backup job. Hope it gets you a little closer!

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula GUI
This is one for the developer's list. I think it is a great idea! A configuration editor with 'smarts' would eliminate 70% of the traffic the user list requests help on (my guesstimation of course.) The downside is there are so many other worthy features it will take time or a champion to pull this together. Any takers in developer land to explore this? Erich On Apr 24, 2007, at 11:07 AM, Stephan Wendl wrote: I am sure that this has come up several times. But I like to add a twist at looking at this problem. The design of a GUI for bacula may revolve arround interfacing with the dameons. I was wondering if just designing a GUI for config file modification might simply suffice, i.e. a config file editor with the smarts of syntax checking and linking of all the resources in the main bacula-dir.conf file. Most of the cfg files do not change much or at all. The file most often modified is the bacula-dir.conf It would much easier to just concentrate on that task rather than designing a GUI which interacts with the dir daemon. Over time this GUI might be more complete, but being able to modify the main cfg graphically would be major contribution. -sww -- --- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

The win32 Bacula SD probably uses fopen() and so would support UNC paths. But I don't know if it is possible to symlink to a UNC path, so I don't know if UNC paths would work using the approach vchanger takes. Also, that would not affect how USB drives are handled. Hmmm isn't this the mechanism drive mapping uses essentially a symlink? Perhaps the best approach would be to force the use of a Windows 2k or greater NTFS filesystem on the USB drives to be used. Then it would be possible to mount the USB drive partition at a reparse point on the directory tree of a fixed disk NTFS volume, rather than assigning it a drive letter at all. A NTFS reparse point is essentially what the rest of the world calls a mountpoint. The difference is that in *nix any drive partition can be mounted at a given mountpoint, so we can have all of the drives associated with a virtual changer always be mounted at the same mountpoint and they don't even have to use the same filesystem. I'm not so sure how Windows determines which USB drive partitions get mounted at a particular reparse point, so I'm not sure if it is possible to have one reparse point at which all associated USB drives will get mounted. I don't know either. I am certain that the FAT32 filesystem could not be used without drive letters. Most USB drives ship with FAT32, however, it carries a 2GB limit on file size and that fact can cause issues. IMO on the WIN side of the world, NTFS would be the only format to use for more reasons than just the above. However, reparse points would eliminate the drive letter assignment problems and at least allow defining one reparse point per drive. Robert Nelson would be an excellent resource on this question.

Re: [Bacula-users] Question about concurrent jobs
My understanding is that all the resources must also be set to the
max # of concurrent jobs in order for Bacula to run more than one job
at a time.
Therefore, you'll need to set your resources to 3 in all cases to get
three jobs running at once. The job resource gives you the ability to
specify which storage resource to use.
Pay particular attention to the tape media as there are risks with
running concurrent jobs to tape. If I recall, some of that can be
mitigated by how you handle spooling, but someone on the list with
tape and tape libraries experience would be better able to assist you
with that topic.

Hello,
I'm trying to run concurrent jobs on different storage resources. For
example, there is no problem in doing a tape backup at the same
time as
a disk backup and a DVD backup, but I don't really want two concurrent
backups to tape. So my configuration looks like this:
Director {
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 3
[...]
Client {
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 3
[...]
Storage {
Name = File
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
[...]
Storage {
Name = Tape
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
[...]
Storage {
Name = DVD
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
# At bacula-sd.conf
FileDaemon {
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 3
The fact is that it throttles one job at a time. Reading the
documentation, says this:
To run concurrent jobs, you must set Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2 in
five or six distinct places: in bacula-dir.conf in the Director, the
Job, the Client, the Storage resources; in bacula-fd in the FileDaemon
(or Client) resource, and in bacula-sd.conf in the Storage
resource. If
any one is missing, it will throttle the jobs to one at a time. You
may,
of course, set the Maximum Concurrent Jobs to more than 2.
Is it possible to configure the situation described above? Any hint on
what may I be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance, and keep the good work!

Re: [Bacula-users] Unhelpful help (was Re: Bacula and HP MSL2024 autochanger)
Alan, I've seen this too. Ryan's points are valid as well. A polite response of Read the Manual is sufficient. For those with **URGENT** requests, a polite pointer to paid support options would be appropriate as well. Now, deep down inside I'd really like rip and shred -- there are times when it's clear the poster has no respect for others and a 'why haven't you taken care of me?' pushy attitude that exudes from the posting. Those are best ignored in my opinion, but as a measure of grace a polite response isn't out of the question. Thanks for the post Alan. It likely hits home for just about every regular 'Baculite' on the list.

Indeed. /rant mode on/ Ladies and Gentleman, The mailing list is the primary customer support mechanism and one of the only expressions of community for the excellent community supported product that is Bacula. I have seen too many responses on this list that, while they may answer the question /exactly/ (although too many aren't even that helpful) they provide absolutely no useful or meaningful information. Please keep in mind as you respond that users come to this list looking for help with a complex system that they probably don't understand fully. While sometimes the assurance that something is indeed possible is enough to spur a user to more detailed tests and a re-reading of the manual quite often additional information from more experienced users is most helpful. It's not difficult, as experienced users, to anticipate the type of information that might be required to guide someone past the difficulties expressed in their posting to the list. The Bacula user's community is somewhat self-selected to be more professional than the general Linux user in that smaller installations don't need a backup system as capable as bacula. Please remember to treat our community members with respect and patience. The mailing list is the primary support channel available to all users at all experience levels. While a product's technical excellence is important in choosing a solution for business needs, a FOSS product whose user community is treated well by their peers will enjoy greater success than one who's users are left to support themselves completely. Vendors of proprietary products are quite often judged by users and in the trade press on both quality of their products and quality of their support. The same is true for FOSS products except that /we/ are the support staff and the competition is just a download away. If a Bacula user can't get their problem resolved quickly and easily with help from the mailing list they'll quickly move on to another solution. They don't have the options that are available to users of proprietary products - find another support vendor or use financial incentives with the vendor to improve response from them. /rant mode off/ Alan Davis Senior Architect Ruckus Network, Inc. 703.464.6578 (o) 410.365.7175 (m) [EMAIL PROTECTED] alancdavis AIM -- --- Take Surveys.

Re: [Bacula-users] On-Site and Off-Site Backup Replicas... Wait For Copy Job?
Nick, For what it might be worth to you, here's how I do this with a couple of my clients. Part I Full install on a Windows 2003 NAS/Server unit with full jobs on two of the workstations and 'sniping' production only data sitting on the NAS/Server unit. Two external HDD that rotate M,W,F and T,Th - same name, same drive lettering. These house all jobs for the site. The drives go off-site daily (small form factor - easy to transport.) These provide historical data for some 60 days before the volumes are marked USED and then recycled. Part II Director installed in our facility with VPN access to the client site. Director has specific (custom) Job templates for NAS production data and for one key workstation that houses its own production data. Those jobs run and pull that specific key data off-site separate of their disk based storage - and not the whole enchilada. This data pool is good for 30 calendar days - one Full and 29 incremental backups. The first days volume gets recycled and another Full runs on the 31st day starting the whole process again. This configuration is relatively simple (and why I can pull it off :-) ) compared to some of the more fancy things Bacula can do. Erich On Mar 7, 2007, at 5:40 AM, Nick Withers wrote: G'day guys, Just trying to design a backup solution using Bacula for a small company I work for and would appreciate some help with a few issues. This email may be rather long, so certainly appreciate anyone taking the time to read it, let alone offer any insight they may have! The main problem I'm having is that I want backups both on-site (for restoring files users accidentally deleted and other relatively trivial matters) and off-site (for when the site gets stepped on by Godzilla). Methinks I'm after (upcoming?) copy job magic... :-) The company currently has two 200-odd GB USB-accessible HDDs and five 110-odd GB USB accessible HDDs. I'd like to avoid having to acquire any further hardware at this point and think that this should be enough to hold the required data anyway, at least following the scheme outlined below. My current idea runs like this: - A monthly full backup of each machine to one of the 200 GB drives (each machine uses it's own full backup pool) - This drive is then taken off-site and the other 200 GB drive put in its place for the next monthly full backup - Weekday night-run differential backups to one of the 110 GB drives (each machine uses it's own differential backup pool) - This drive is then taken off-site and the 110 GB drive for the next differential backup is put in its place This would mean that with the just the full backup and the previous day's differential backup drives from off-site, the previous day's state could be completely restored. Bet I've missed some really obviously nicer way of achieving this or something similar though! I don't believe that too much data will be changing on a daily basis, so hopefully the increasingly large differential backups throughout the month won't be a problem. Now I also want to be able to access the backups on-site, without having to drag in off-site backup drives. I'd prefer to do the actual backup to the removable drives in the first instance as these are the critical ones and I'd like the job(s) to fail in the case of full removable drives. I've thought of: - Copying the backup volumes from the removable drives to a local location following a backup. Problems / potential problems: - Have to know the names of the relevant volumes on the removable media - Would really like to be able to specify restoring from the relocated volumes in a nice manner, rather than those on the removable media - Migrating the volumes from the removable media to a local location following a backup. Problems / potential problems: - Would want to be able to easily use the removable-drive volumes if the local ones go AWOL (e.g., Godzilla...) - Would want matching volume names on local and removable locations so that volumes are easily identifiable - Would want volume recycling to occur on both locations I've attached (slightly sanitised) Director and Software Director config files for the current setup (very much alpha), in case this helps. Anyone have any ideas? Should I just hang on until copy job saves everything? Am I being profoundly stupid in one / many ways? By the way, the system's all-Windows and screaming along very nicely using 2.0.2 - huzzah!

Hi there,

# Summary of problem #
##
I get the following output from the bconsole 'restore' command:
No Full backup before 2007-03-07 12:26:11 found.
This is after choosing option 5: Select the most recent backup for a
client.
This only started happening after using the 'bscan' utility to rebuild
my catalog.
I was able to run this restore command before I used the bscan utility
but I could only see ~25,000 out of the ~250,000 files in the backup.
# Detailed history #
This backup job has been running for a couple of months, so far it is
comprised of 1 full backup and ~35 incremental backups.
Recently I wanted to test the restore process to make sure everything
worked. I tried to run the 'restore' command using option 5:
Select the
most recent backup for a client.
At this point bacula provided me with a Directory Tree Structure
however
only 10% of my files were available.
After troubleshooting this issue in the #bacula channel on freenode we
discovered that the client definition in the director configuration
file
was setup to automatically prune all files over 60 days old.
Even though I had specifically set 'AutoPrune = No' and 'Volume
Retention = 99y' in my pool definition, the client definition seems to
have over written this.
After fixing this configuration problem I then set out to attempt to
rebuild the database using the 'bscan' utility.
bscan -s -m -c bacula-sd.conf -v -V Archive-1\|Archive-2\|Archive-3\|
Archive-4\|Archive-5\|Archive-6\|Archive-7\|Archive-8 /dev/nst0
One thing I need to mention, this backup spans across 9 tapes, I only
ran bscan on the first 8 because I assumed that the files on the last
tape did not need to be scanned as they were less than 60 days old
(Could this be a problem?).
When bscan finished it told me that it had entered ~255,000 files into
my database, unfortunately I did not save the final output from bscan.
Before running bscan I also backed up my database:
-rw-r- 1 bacula bacula 1851354112 2007-03-07 12:15 bacula.db
-rw-r- 1 root root 1851354112 2007-03-05 14:06
bacula.db.backup-05-03-07
(I don't know why the database files are the same size?)
Now when I try to run the restore command it tells me:
No Full backup before 2007-03-07 12:26:11 found

[Bacula-users] Win32 mtx-changer.cmd and single drive
Hi Robert,
I'm setting up v 2.0.2 on a Win 2003 box and needing to use Alexander
Kuehn's script written in the Tips section.
What I'm needing help on is to:
1. validate the path info along with variables is correct AND
2. how to add the virtual database for the slots as shown below in
Alexander's example shown here to the mtx-changer.cmd file.
Device {
Name=DDS3
Archive Device = # use yours not mine! ;)/dev/nsa0
Changer Device = # not really required/dev/nsa0
Changer Command = # use this (maybe change the path)!
/usr/local/bin/mtx-changer %o %a %S
Maximum Changer Wait = 3d # 3 days in seconds
AutomaticMount = yes; # mount on start
AlwaysOpen = yes; # keep device locked
Media Type = DDS3 # it's just a name
RemovableMedia = yes; #
Offline On Unmount = Yes; # keep this too
Label media = Yes; #
}
As the script has to emulate the complete wisdom of a mtx-changer it
has an internal database containing where which tape is stored, you
can see this on the following line:
labels=VOL-0001 VOL-0002 VOL-0003 VOL-0004 VOL-0005 VOL-0006
VOL-0007 VOL-0008 VOL-0009 VOL-0010 VOL-0011 VOL-0012
-
I have modified the Device config to this:
#
Device {
Name = DDS-4#
Media Type = DDS-4
Changer Command = C:\\Program Files\\Bacula\\bin %o %a %s
Maximum Changer Wait = 12h
Device Type = Tape
Archive Device = Tape0
AutomaticMount = yes # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes
RemovableMedia = yes
Offline On Unmount = yes
RandomAccess = no
Label media = yes
# Alert Command = tapeinfo -f %c | findstr TapeAlert
}
Thanks,
Erich

Yikes - my bad. It is part of the win32 build (where I've been spending a lot of time lately) and didn't bother to check the OS X side of the house. So, in the sd conf file where the directives are similar for your device, my best guess is it will mount in /Volumes/tape drive the relevant directive would be something like: Archive Device = /Volumes/YourHighSpeedTapeDrive of course, replace 'YourHighSpeedTapeDrive' with the actual name of the volume of the tape drive.

The device D:\home\ clearly is existant and fully accessible.
I am not sure if Bacula requires any special permissions for it to
read the folders.
Also, it will not explain why certain folders (the beggining ones
at the letter 'a' ) get read properly and
it starts failing by the time we're well into the 'b' starting
folders.
Lastly, the size of each folder is equivalently/approximately the
same ~ 450/500MB or so, so
i can't imagine if this is indeed the cause of failure.
Any Developers willing to pick this issue up?
Please advice.
Thank you.

1)It actually fails on the first Full backup, on certain usernames

2)Successive runs (differential/incrementals) do not complain of
this. And I'm generally
able to perform full backup of such users once differentials/

Re: [Bacula-users] Hierarchical storage systems?
Alan, While I can't even begin to venture a guess to the challenge, I find it quite fascinating and anxious to see some input to this thread. Learning is a great thing. Erich On Feb 14, 2007, at 6:52 AM, Alan Brown wrote: I know this is outside the scope of the list, (despite someone having this on the wishlist), but I'm looking for a *nix-compatible (pref linux) hierarchical storage system. Explanation: A HFS (*) is a virtual filesystem, similar to unionfs. Files are kept on slow media (tape or CD or DVD or even NFS-over- WAN, etc) and are loaded from the slow media into a fast disk cache on an as-needed basis. Files written to the system are stored on disk and then flushed through to tape periodically. One example of such a HFS is the old MS-DOS Rombrain setup BBS operators used to use. Backups are made in normal ways as the filesystem is transparent apart from being slower to access. Why? Tapes have few moving parts, high density and consume zero power while idling. Adding to the filesystem is simply a matter of adding more (cheap) tapes. The filesystem can be frozen at any time and moved to a safe (not recommended), then resumed later. A single large robot can operate as both HFS storage and backup library. Why am I asking for one? Much of what I am storing is write once. read occasionally. We have 25Tb online now, most of which is already in this state. I've just been asked to add 20Tb to that and have been informed there's a request in to add 50Tb to the mix in about 6 months. 90% of this will be accessed occasionally, so that's an awful lot of disks spinning (power draw, airconditioning) for no good reason, and additional expense every time the demand grows. The amount of data coming in from space probes seems to be growing a lot faster than the natural growth in disk drive sizes. With larger tape robots able to increase capacity by simply bolting on an extension, growing a HFS is fairly easy and relatively cheap. -- --- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Hi Erich,
Change your changer command to this.

Re: [Bacula-users] windows backup issue
I've run into this issue when building the Filelist based on Windows Explorer views where known extensions are hidden. In this case, it might be a malformed syntax - you may want to post the Fileset portion of your configuration file for review by the list.

Hi Robert,
I'm setting up v 2.0.2 on a Win 2003 box and needing to use Alexander
Kuehn's script written in the Tips section.
What I'm needing help on is to:
1. validate the path info along with variables is correct AND
2. how to add the virtual database for the slots as shown below in
Alexander's example shown here to the mtx-changer.cmd file.
Device {
Name=DDS3
Archive Device = # use yours not mine! ;)/dev/nsa0
Changer Device = # not really required/dev/nsa0
Changer Command = # use this (maybe change the path)!
/usr/local/bin/mtx-changer %o %a %S
Maximum Changer Wait = 3d # 3 days in seconds
AutomaticMount = yes; # mount on start
AlwaysOpen = yes; # keep device locked
Media Type = DDS3 # it's just a name
RemovableMedia = yes; #
Offline On Unmount = Yes; # keep this too
Label media = Yes; #
}
As the script has to emulate the complete wisdom of a mtx-changer it
has an internal database containing where which tape is stored, you
can see this on the following line:

I have modified the Device config to this:
#

Re: [Bacula-users] Concurrent jobs to disk
Outstanding. Thanks for posting the results. You've demystified a portion of the Migration piece for me. :-) Here's to many happy restores... E~ On Feb 6, 2007, at 5:57 AM, Support wrote: Erich Thanks for the tips - I have just monitored tonights backups of incrementals and some full backup of clients - all went well. I configured one group of incrementals as a migration job and it went without a hitch. The migration to tape was done after all other jobs that wrote to tape after spooling - this was achieved by setting the job priority to 11 and I changed the priority of the catalog backup to 12. I have tested the restore of several files from migration jobs and had no problems. Thanks again. Stephen Carr Erich Prinz wrote: Actually, the FD must also match the total number of concurrent connections. I have two FD which are set to MaxJobs = 1... this forces the second FD to wait in line until the first one completes. On the other 6 FD, the MaxJobs is set to 10. This permits all 6 to run concurrently (provided the DIR/SD have their configs set to 10 as well.) It's nice to have that flexibility. Now, with regards to your Migration - that injects some unknowns for me as I've not jumped on that bandwagon just yet. At first blush, something tells me running Migration jobs concurrently is a potentially dangerous scenario and might compromise your ability to restore from those jobs. Erich p.s. - don't forget to hit Reply All so others get to see the thread. On Feb 5, 2007, at 7:52 PM, Support wrote: Erich I am having problem with concurrent jobs using Migration - it seems about 2 or 3 start and others are delayed eg waiting for a resource. You imply that the Maximum Concurrent Jobs must be the SAME in the Director and Storage. I have various Jobdefs eg for servers (7), laptops (15), workstations (40) etc that have the Maximum Concurrent Jobs set to the number of Clients eg 7. So the Max Concurrent Jobs in each Jobdef must equal that in the Director and Storage or can I remove the Max Concurrent Jobs parameter from the Jobdef setting and it assumes the Director value. I assume the file daemon setting can be left at 1. Thanks for the tip Erich Prinz wrote: There's a section on concurrent jobs in the Tips and Tricks section of the docs. Short version: each config file has an entry for MaxConcurrentJobs = (or something like that) and each entry MUST be configured with the identical number of concurrent jobs in order to work. I've done this and works quite well. Just be cognizant of your bandwidth limitations so you don't run into time out situations.

Re: [Bacula-users] Concurrent jobs to disk
There's a section on concurrent jobs in the Tips and Tricks section of the docs.

I've done this and works quite well. Just be cognizant of your bandwidth limitations so you don't run into time out situations.

Re: [Bacula-users] Concurrent jobs to disk
Actually, the FD must also match the total number of concurrent connections. I have two FD which are set to MaxJobs = 1... this forces the second FD to wait in line until the first one completes. On the other 6 FD, the MaxJobs is set to 10. This permits all 6 to run concurrently (provided the DIR/SD have their configs set to 10 as well.) It's nice to have that flexibility. Now, with regards to your Migration - that injects some unknowns for me as I've not jumped on that bandwagon just yet. At first blush, something tells me running Migration jobs concurrently is a potentially dangerous scenario and might compromise your ability to restore from those jobs. Erich p.s. - don't forget to hit Reply All so others get to see the thread. On Feb 5, 2007, at 7:52 PM, Support wrote: Erich I am having problem with concurrent jobs using Migration - it seems about 2 or 3 start and others are delayed eg waiting for a resource. You imply that the Maximum Concurrent Jobs must be the SAME in the Director and Storage. I have various Jobdefs eg for servers (7), laptops (15), workstations (40) etc that have the Maximum Concurrent Jobs set to the number of Clients eg 7. So the Max Concurrent Jobs in each Jobdef must equal that in the Director and Storage or can I remove the Max Concurrent Jobs parameter from the Jobdef setting and it assumes the Director value. I assume the file daemon setting can be left at 1. Thanks for the tip Erich Prinz wrote: There's a section on concurrent jobs in the Tips and Tricks section of the docs.

I'm out of ideas. Norton posed a problem for quite a few people on the list some time ago (I can't recall the time frame.) Not sure of the specific fix, but excluding bacula-fd.exe is certainly one key element. The output doesn't give me any clues either. Maybe check the AV and see if that changes the failing executable.

Please see attachment for the tail of the trace file. I couldn't
find anything suspicious at the end of the log, looks bacula just
completes the backup and there is no records at all that something
failed the next time.
while memtest might be a good idea just to make sure it's not RAM
that is causing this, it is a critical system and everything
besides bacula is working fine. At these circumstances I cannot
afford to put it offline even on the weekend.

The other thing to do is run the FD in trace mode to see where it
exits. That alone should yield valuable info to permit corrective

The system currently has the following partitions: Part 1 - 100G Primary partition defined as C: Part 2 - 400G Extended partition Part 3 - 400G Logical partition defined as E: Restoring C: works fine: I just specify the target as blank and the directory structure is correctly recovered into the C: disk. However, BartPE seems to be mounting what should be E: as D: with the CD mounted as E:. If I leave the target as blank, the files go to the C: disk. If I specify the target as D:, the files go to the D: drive, but under a \e directory. Once the restore is finished I can move the directory structure back up to the root, but it would be nice to have them go to the correct place to begin with and avoid the extra step. * Windows does not see the second partition. After restoring the system and rebooting, I have to go into Window's 'Disk Management' and assign a drive letter. I had assigned the letter when I created the partition, and and it was defined when I created the backup. Why did it get lost now? In a previous test I had backed up/restored only the C: drive without touching the partition table, and Windows lost the partition that time as well. Any ideas as to what is missing? One more detail: when I first booted BartPE with no partitions defined on the disk, the CD was mounted as E:. In the process of defining the partitions, I assigned the second partition as E: which then meant that none of the files/programs on the CD could be found. I had to power off and reboot, at which time BartPE mounted the second partition as D: instead of E: and kept the CD at E:. Could that be causing both of the problems? Clearly. I'm not quite sure how to build BartPE in such a manner that will force the optical drive (or additional drives) to a higher drive mapping, but that would be one fix if it's possible. The other option that came to mind would be to recover the C partition, boot the machine into Windows, finish creating the remaining partition(s) and restore the balance of the machine while in Windows. After all, we now have a nice wintel version of bacula we can use. We know the OS will complain bitterly as I suspect you're off loading things like SQL and Exchange onto the other partitions - but after a reboot, it should find all the things it's looking for and work after running Exchange and SQL specific utilities to bring those databases back into a consistent state.

Re: [Bacula-users] Windows restore issues
No, not kidding. I agree, it is difficult to tell most of the time in email. I've been using Backup Exec for years. Once Symantec bought out Veritas, things have gone decidedly south with the product. A crying shame. Same thing happened when they acquired Powerquest's product line of disc utilities. But I digress. Yes, nothing short of imaging the disc will get really close (Exchange and SQL still have to be massaged) to a fast restore. Though I hear LiveState allows for a pretty painless recovery. I suspect it automates the things we would do manually. Here's looking forward to swapping more war stories down the road! Erich On Jan 17, 2007, at 7:36 PM, James Harper wrote: It should do.

You can't do a 'proper' restore of a database without having Exchange/SQL actually running, and you won't get it running in a BartPE or Backup Exec IDR environment. Booting the operating system to complete the restore is going to be a given no matter what solution you are using, unless you are prepared to restore a database that you backed up using VSS, and that will set you back to the point at which the VSS backup was done (hours or days ago), not the time the last log shipment was done (hopefully minutes ago). Or maybe you were only kidding... email always makes it hard to tell :) James - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Bacula-users] New error/warning statement?
Ran into this issue with DV tapes and likely applies to DDS as well. Sony uses a different manufacturing process known as wet emulsification to create the tape media. The rest of the manufacturers use some variation of a dry emulsification when making their tape media. From day one you must 'choose your poison' as it were and remain faithful to the brand. Mixing tapes afterwards will bring a device to it's mechanical knees - it will as some point simply fail to operate. In the case of the DV cameras, time codes and audio tracks were being stripped from the source during capture. My guess is you had the same problem with the DDS drive and Sony tapes.

Re: [Bacula-users] How to let bacula to create new volume for each job.
Here is my setup for 30 days of storage with each day having a volume
dedicated to that day.
Pool {
Name = 30 Day
Volume Use Duration = 23h
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically
recycle Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 719h # 29 days 23 hours
Label Format = Day_$Day
}
You'll need to ensure your schedule and job resource allow for a full
backup every Sunday. I take one full for every 30 day segment and
incremental for the rest. This keeps the storage size at a reasonable
level but admittedly would really stink to have to do a full recovery.

I'm working on a setup for 2.0 and for the 1st time am using TAPE - a single DDS drive. So I'm in need of some help. In the Documents, Alexander Kuehn has an example SD conf for the drive + a script in the src files but I am missing: 1. how to massage that script with the mtx-changer.cmd script in .. \src\win32\release to get this to work (or is it even appropriate to do so) 2. invoking the script (is this a 'run before and run after item?) One other item I ran into but had to rush to head out to a meeting yesterday: when running the 'test' job, the job failed with Permission Denied. The tape in the drive was not blank. Is this where I need to look for the problem? Thanks, Erich - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Bacula-users] BUG?: BackupCatalog waiting to reserve a device
Alan is correct, you don't want the catalog backup occurring when other client jobs are running. You can setup the job (as Alan noted) to run after all other jobs have completed -- the stock configuration is set up this way out of the oven. I get this same message if there are still jobs running or waiting to time out (this happens with a client that is off line) but it eventually fires and we get a good backup of the catalog. Setting the Heartbeat option keeps the FD -- SD communication link 'open' (this is my rudimentary understanding) to cope with congestion on the network. It won't solve your network problems but will allow bacula to get the job done if there are issues with the data link between the FD and SD. For a number of client machines we backup over the 'net, this configuration setting is a life saver. We have our client jobs running concurrently and storing to disk. There is a significant risk (apparently) if attempting to do this to tape - if I recall, you're setup was going to disk. Check your Max Concurrent Job settings in the Dir and SD configurations. Unless I've missed something here, there isn't a bug to track down, just an appropriate configuration needs to be made.

Ther ewas some discussion on this in the past relating to laptops and there may already be a script for it somewhere. This sounds like a bacula bug to me. Surely bacula should be able to cope if one of the client machines is unavailable for some reason. Bacula will give up and continue on other machines eventually. However for a machine which is known to not always be there, it is better to test in the first place or shorten the giveup timeout from default settings. If it cannot, it makes it very easy to perfom a denial of service attack. It could also mean that in a larger office / etc. where machines are occasionally unavailable for some reason that the machines last in the backup list are rather likely not to be backed up. That seems quite a significant flaw to me. If you have concurrency set high enough and the max start delays set long enough, the backups will run... :-) Possibly, but more importantly these jobs should never had shown as finished on the Director status until the Storage daemon said they were finished - the fact that they're wedged means that the BackupCatalog job should never have started in the first place To my mind, the correct behaviour would be for the director to terminate the job after FDConnectTimeout has elapsed and then to inform the storage daemon that the job has been cancelled / had an error. At the moment, it looks like the director cancels the job but leaves the storage daemon in an inconsistent state. This should not be happening and if it is occuring with 2.0 then it's definitely worthy of a bug report. As for older versions, Your Milage May Vary. AB -- --- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

You might configure concurrent jobs as a solution. That way, if one client is off-line, it doesn't hold up the whole show for the other jobs.

According to the grammar in the manual, the curly braces are

As for the need for quotes, They are only needed if the string

Hi Robert.
I'm doing basic testing of the Win32 build of 1.39.30 with full
install of the Dir, SD, and FD.
Configuring the Director for automatic labeling of the disc based
volumes has been an interesting exercise.
Bacula Documentation shows the proper syntax as:
LabelFormat = File-
where the label and any variables are in double quotes. Configured in
this manner, the volume label yields .
However, when leaving the double quotes off, the volume label is
correctly applied eg. File-0001 and so on.
Also, the Director fails to launch under these two conditions in the
Pool section of dir-conf when present in the configuration setting:
LabelFormat = ${Client}
LabelFormat = ${Client}

Running 10.4.8 on this end. What I can do is run a job with a large file and let you know the results.

Re: [Bacula-users] Mac OS X and readline disabled requirement (deprecated information in the documentation?)
No, the passwords are not required in the config - It just makes life
easier when setting everything up since it's extremely easy to get
distracted and put the correct password in the wrong place.
Otherwise, the config will generate random passwords for the
director, SD, and FD.

Re: [Bacula-users] Mac OS X and readline disabled requirement (deprecated information in the documentation?)
For what it is worth, here is the client configure for the client. I
believe you have to explicitly enable readline support in the conf
arguments.
./configure \
--enable-smartalloc \

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula 1.38.11 ok for Mac OS X Server 10.4.x?
It does work on X Server. There are at least three people on this list with X Server (in the multiples of servers by the way) that use Bacula. I'm not one of them :-) Make sure you build out your configure script to point to the appropriate location of MySQL (which is really the only difference between the X client and X Server as far as Bacula is concerned.)

In the Bacula 1.38.11 documentation, in the Quick Start section, the supported operating systems state Mac OS X (client) which would indicate logically not server (since Mac OS X Server is not mentioned).

Re: [Bacula-users] mac os x backup problem
Run Bacula with debug turned on [ bacula start -d100 bacula-
log.txt ], then run your job specific to that client.
Stop bacula and restart w/o debug turned on or you'll end up with a
very large file to wade through.
Two choices here: 1. pico bacula-log.txt in the term session or 2.
mv bacula-log.txt /Users/*yourusername*/Desktop/bacula-log.txt and
use TextEdit to view the log file. This will give you the info you
need to find out why it isn't grabbing the Volumes/
I personally wouldn't attempt to backup anything mounted under the
Volumes directory as this is where all external file systems get
mounted on X. iDisk, external USB/FW drives, NSF, SMB/CIFS mounts
etc. This opens a Pandora's box as Bacula will attempt to backup
anything mounted under /Volumes at the time the job is run.
Better: If you have a specific device you want to backup, add that
item explicitly to the list /Volumes/MyFavoriteDeviceToBackup and
leave the rest alone.
Hope I didn't offend you with the details of what to do in the term
session - just not sure of your comfort level there.
This is just to get you pointed in the right direction. There are
others on this list far more astute than I (Hi Landof) when it comes
to the inner workings of OS X and Bacula and can give greater
guidance/expertise.

Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] Update: Re: Rescue cd create/make problem
Don, You can start by looking at Mike Bombich's site: http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html He's an Apple systems engineer at in their education division that's done a ton of work putting together sys admin tool sets. The link is to a tool that allows you to create a bootable DVD of the specific machine you'd like to clone/recover. Please note these are not Apple supported tools! More advanced options include System Image which is included with OS X Server and is part of an overall deployment/management suite for desktops/laptops running OS X. It really depends on your environment which tool set you need. I've not done this, however, it would seem to me an install of bacula with dir, sd, and fd correctly setup and running prior to building out the bootable DVD would yield a recovery DVD. How to deal with the Catalog and the Database is beyond me. Maybe that could be built in as part of the recovery DVD, the image restored to the local HDD from DVD, boot to HDD, re-read the latest backup volumes, and a final restore of user data. Non-Apple standard changes to the System done after the DVD creation would be lost unless explicitly added to the backup jobs. Hope this is a good nudge in the right direction for you.

I don't mind figuring it out, but if you can give me a push in the right direction or keep me from repeating your mistakes I'd appreciate the time saved. Almost everything I've read says to use imaging or reinstall everything and restore only the data. The bootcd solutions I found are not for 10.4 or based on creating a bootcd from the OS installation disk. There are a couple of commercial products, but my goal is a one-stop solution that a backup expert can use without being an OSX expert, too. That said... Should I try doing it the same as for 'nix, but using the above- mentioned bootcd? Is BSD significantly different (all my 'nix are RH or CentOS), and if it is should I start with that process? I do actually work on these systems, but mostly remote and on the command line. Well, I cannot really answer this question because I don't know enough about either BSD or OS X. However, in general, you need some code that will setup a bootable CD (or USB or other thing) so that you can boot without using your disk image. Then you need to be able to repair/reformat, ... your hard disks depending on the situation -- that is what most of the Bacula rescue code does. It saves the state of the system and reformats it in a series of relatively easy to use scripts. In addition, you need a statically linked copy of the FD and its conf file on the CD so that you can restore the data files. And finally, you need some way to restore the boot sector (typically grub on most newer Linux machines). TIA for any/everything. Don. Thanks for the education.

However I moved to Bacula/GnuPG combo because I can manage it centrally. You do not need to use Bacula with AxCrypt, but you can if you wanted. For example you can use Bacula to backup the X drive (see script). I think you could also use Client Run Before Job to encrypt all files with AxCrypt, back up only the .axx files with Bacula and delete .axx with Client Run After Job once the backup completes on the client. There are many possibilities on how to accomplish this. Here is the procedure if anybody needs it. 1. Install AxCrypt on each Win32 client (no Linux ports yet) 2. Install a .bat on each client. It will encrypt directories specified there and transfer all encrypted files via the FTP or File Shares. 3.

This is on Mac OS X 10.4.x - so path info will absolutely differ on
your RHEL box.
Also:
In the stock bacula-dir.conf file you need to set the password for
access to the MyCatalog:
# Generic catalog service
Catalog {
Name = MyCatalog
dbname = bacula; user = bacula; password = PASSWORD GOES HERE
}
Otherwise it won't connect.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula doesn't backup to remote storage
Hope a few others chime in here besides me.
Reset by peer indicates network issues. These issues can sometimes be
attributed to faulty hardware (NIC, Patch cable, router/switch.) The
heartbeat gives the interaction a greater tolerance for delays due to
slow links but won't correct underlying hardware problems.
Is the Director and Storage daemon on the same machine?
Is the client on your LAN or remote?

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula doesn't backup to remote storage
Great idea to head back to what was working!
I'd recommend making only one config change at a time and test the
change (I like doing it all at once and then sifting through the
debris - but that's just me - I like a challenge.) Don't forget to
*reload or stop and restart the daemons.
Consider scheduling as a way to 'load balance' the jobs as well.
Example:
client's 1-5 job starts at 11:05
client's 6-11 job start at 11:55
I think I've seen other's in the list handle large numbers of FDs
this way - there are quite a few here who are handling large numbers
of client machines that can also provide a wealth of info on the
subject - I'd suggest starting a new thread with the heading:
Backup Strategy for Several Client Machines
and see if that helps get more traction for your challenge ahead.
Let us know how it goes for you.

Thank You for Your answer!
But i don't think what the problem is with hardware, because 95% of
computers won't backup with concurrent job and spooling settings and
they are sun, ibm machines with good cables connected. As i said
before
- when i haven't configuration with these settings all was fine. But
now i have more computers and i need such settings, because night
is not
enough for backup process and i though concurrent jobs will help,
but i
got this problem.
Director and Storage daemons are on different machines, but in the
same
network subnet. All computers are in internal network. Tonight i will
try to backup without these settings as before i did and check maybe i
will got a new idea why it is happening.
