[Bacula-users] Backup is not descending into most important directories...Misconfiguration?
I'm trying to backup a redhat8 box, but i get the following errors every
time:
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /boot
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /proc
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /home
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /usr/WWW
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /usr/data
The backup completes with a non-error status, but it doesnt back up the very
important stuff in /home and /usr that I set up bacula expressly for...The
job in question is defined as follows:
# Job/Fileset definitions for handler
Job {
Name = Backuprhbox
JobDefs = DefaultJobTemplate
Client = rhbox
FileSet = FileSetrhbox
Write Bootstrap = /home/bacula/bin/working/rhbox.bsr
}
FileSet {
Name = FileSetrhbox
Ignore FileSet Changes = yes
Include {
Options {
Signature = MD5
Verify = pins5
Onefs = yes
Exclude = yes
# exclude files in /tmp and /proc
Wild = /tmp/*
Wild = /proc/*
}
# include everything else
File = /
}
}
Have I just completely misunderstood/misconfigured something?

I take it you have separate partitions for /boot, /usr, /home, etc?
Bacula won't cross filesystem boundaries by default, so if you want to
back-up separate filesystems you must explicitly list them in your
Fileset record. Try adding:
File = /home
File = /usr
etc...
To your Fileset record.

[Bacula-users] issue restoring...cant connect to storage daemon (on localhost)
I'm having issues restoring files from a backup tape, where the director and storage daemon are both on the same machine. running on debian I get the following error output in the bconsole: OK to run? (yes/mod/no): yesJob started. JobId=65 *15-Nov 12:42 LocalDirector: Start Restore Job RestoreFiles.2006-11-15_12.42.17 15-Nov 12:42 6400r: RestoreFiles.2006-11-15_12.42.17 Warning: c:\cygwin\home\kern\bacula\k\src\win32\lib\../../lib/bnet.c:853 Could not connect to Storage daemon on localhost:9103. ERR=No error Retrying ... *now, its saying it cant connect to the storage daemon, but it had to have earlier in the restore, because i went through a directory tree marking the files i wanted to restore. when i list jobs, i get the following for the job in question: +---+---+-+--+---+--++---+ | JobId | Name | StartTime | Type | Level | JobFiles | JobBytes | JobStatus |+---+---+-+--+---+--++---+ | 65 | RestoreFiles | 2006-11-15 12:42:19 | R | F | 0 | 0 | R | +---+---+-+--+---+--++---+now, if i exit out of bconsole and issue a ./bacula status, it shows that the director, file and storage daemons, and console are all running.

Re: [Bacula-users] Email configuration documentation ambiguity?
from bacula-dir.conf, Message Resource section: # NOTE! If you send to two email or more email addresses, you will need # to replace the %r in the from field (-f part) with a single valid # email address in both the mailcommand and the operatorcommand. what this does is, it sets the email address that emails would display in the FROM field, which is by default the same email as they're being sent to. however, if you send email to more than one address, then you'll have to set the FROM address manually, to a single address. for example, i always use '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', since that tends to tell (most) people that its coming from an automated source. -- Life is good when the most you have to worry about is whether or not you're wearing pants. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula 1.38.4 and debian installation
Hi Guys, I am planning to install bacula 1.38.4 latest version in debian sarge because for bacula there is no latest version of debian package so i need to compile. Can any one give me the list of all the dependency packages for bacula compilation in debian any dependencies should be included in the depkgs and/or already installed by default on debian (mt, mtx, sqlite if you choose to use it, etc). i for one have a very...ah...unique install of debian 3.1, and i didnt need anything else (besides sqlite3, which i compiled from source. its recommended to use mysql though) If any one know the installation guide or tutorial for debian that would be great. read the manual. its pretty much the same as any linux install, the manual describes which arguments you need for the .configure script, and then its basically just make, make install. hope this helps! -- Life is good when the most you have to worry about is whether or not you're wearing pants. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Bacula-users] 'label barcodes' command question?
Is the long syntax of the 'label barcodes' console command fully functional? In other words, can I specify the slots i want labeled, in which storage resource, in which pool, all from a one-line command? From what i could understand from the manual, it should be something similar to this: label [storage=xxx] [pool=yyy] [slots=1-10] barcodes however, bacula seems picky about the order the arguments go in, and in the above order, it doesnt seem to see the storage argument. and if i try rearranging them: label [pool=yyy] [slots=1-10] [storage=xxx] barcodes then bacula doesnt see one of the other arguments (in the above example, it doesnt see pool). i ask about this because i'm trying to call this command from an automated script. is this command broken or not yet implemented, is that why I can't get it to work? because i thought i saw someone using this in the mailing list archives...I appreciate any help... -- Life is good when the most you have to worry about is whether or not you're wearing pants. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
