Re: [Bacula-users] is there a way to rename an active volume?

The naming convention was daily-backup- + a single-digit volume number. The amount of data keeps growing so I need to add new volumes from time to time. Somehow the last time I ended up with one with the wrong name. I don't actually need to rename it. Migrating to another volume in the same pool would also work, as would telling bacula to stop using it for new backups, so that it would eventually be empty. For tapes, it used to be possible to rename them by manually writing a label to them (btape label) and then mangling the SQL database to fit that (don't forget to restart everything afterwards) but even there, doing a rename of a volume carrying data wouldn't have worked (needed to be empty to be sure). Your best bet is probably to empty the volume and just delete/recreate it. - Michel -- Want excitement? Manually upgrade your production database.

[Bacula-users] SSL/TLS problems between director and FD (certificate issues)?
Hello, It's been a long time since I have bugged this mailing list but sadly, I see no other way right now. I'm trying to set up TLS between an external FD on the Internet and an internal Director and SD, but failing. I have my own CA (created in TinyCA2 a long time ago) and have issued server type certificates to both the director/SD (both on same box) and the FD, but when I try to connect to the FD, I get this on the director console: 04-Sep 08:49 server-dir JobId 0: Error: openssl.c:86 Connect failure: ERR=error:14094413:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert unsupported certificate 04-Sep 08:49 server-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: TLS negotiation failed with FD at fdbox.server.com:9102.

[Bacula-users] Where are file signatures generated? Can bad memory on SD system cause data corruption?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Hello,
Not sure if somebody on the users list can answer this, but with a
fileset that has this:
FileSet {
Name = Backup
Include {
Options { signature=MD5; }
...
1. Where are the signatures actually generated?
2. Are the signatures checked when a restore is done?
I'm asking because I recently had a weird issue with Bacula and am
wondering whether my diagnosis is correct.
Backstory: I recently inherited an Exabyte 110L LTO2 Loader (IBM
Ultrium-TD2 drive) and PCI-E SCSI Controller (Adaptec ASC-29320ALP
U320). My storage 'server' doesn't have a PCI-E slot, so I hooked all
this up to my newer 'desktop' PC and installed an SD there (both run
Bacula 3.0.3 on Debian Testing with a 2.6.30 kernel). To test the setup
I started a backup with a few bigger files (mostly CD images) from the
server and then restored and compared them to the originals. The restore
process didn't complain about the files but to my surprise, they didn't
match. A closer inspection showed that all of the files only differed in
a single byte.
A few weeks later my desktop PC went haywire, which I eventually
diagnosed as faulty memory (segfaults and gpfs in Linux and both
memtest86+ and Windows Memory Diagnostic found issues with 3 of the 4
RAM bars). Knowing that this PC has had sporadic issues previously (with
Windows Vista dumping to blue screen and complaining about the RAM when
it came back) I replaced all of the memory modules and figured I'd
retest Bacula again. It turns out that this backup and restore worked
flawlessly (same amount of files backed up and test files, but it did
use a different tape than in the first test).
Hence my question: How could the file difference slip past the restore
process and is it possible that faulty memory on the SD can cause silent
data corruption? Or is that not possible and the fault actually lies
with either the tape, the drive or the controller/controller cable?
- - Michel

I found this on the web: http://www.symantec.com/connect/forums/ejecting-tapes-library-after-job-completion-quantum-superloader-3 I removed the 'Windows-ness' and this is what it boils down to: Refreshing the commands page: wget -O /dev/null -q --http-user=guest --http-password=guest http://192.168.1.10/commands.html; Moving tape from Slot 4 to Mailslot: wget -O /dev/null -q --http-user=guest --http-password=guest http://192.168.1.10/move.cgi?from=4to=18; (wait for user to take out tape after doing this) Move tape from Mailslot to Slot 4: wget -O /dev/null -q --http-user=guest --http-password=guest http://192.168.1.10/move.cgi?from=18to=4; (User will have to put tape in and confirm it on the display.) This can be used to get the status page (no auth required) wget -q http://192.168.1.10/status.html; The resulting status.html can be checked for the current Autoloader and drive status (look for Idle to make sure they're not busy before doing any operations .). I plan to use this in combination with 'mtx status' and a few SQL queries to automatically remove Volstatus = 'Full' tapes and insert Recycled ones. (Query SQL to find volume names of 'Full' volumes, cross reference with mtx status to find related slot numbers, eject them to mailslot (one by one), find 'Recycled' volumes to insert, locate free slots and move tape from mailslot there, ...) The whole thing isn't set in stone yet and might fall under the table. If I do complete it, I'll share the resulting scripts here and on the bacula wiki. (Not sure what language I'll be using yet as I'm actually no good at coding.)

Re: [Bacula-users] How to automate Windows installer for a large number of hosts?

If does have a /S switch (must be capital) that should make it auto-install the FD with the default settings. You'll have to fill in the config files for yourself, or somehow replace them further down in your script. If not, is it possible to take apart the installer and write new scripts doing this and how much work would this be? It could be a generic installer choosing from a plaintext file with a list of fixed hostnames, IP addresses and passwords, or a unique installer per server, as long as both can simply be copied and run silently. The installer uses NSIS (http://nsis.sf.net) and its source files are included with the Bacula source, so no need to take it apart. As to how much work it'll be to implement the mechanisms you describe, I unfortunately don't know.

}
The /space/tapedump directory has plenty of space left:
/dev/md3 92G 31G 57G 35% /space
and the read/write permissions are OK (Plus, bacula is running as root
anyway).
In addition to the two jobs, another one was busy Despooling the job
attributes (ie MySQL was inserting data from the batch table into the
file table).
For now, I cancelled the two jobs, let the other one finish despooling
and then restarted both the director and the SD. This seems to have
gotten rid of the problem (at least temporarily) as my restarted job has
already spooled over 800M of data (and neither of the above would to
more than 30).

If you just grab MySQL's files from its data directories, you have to shut it down. Alternatively, you could dump the databases (using mysqldump) and then back up those db dumps. The advantage of the latter is that restores are much easier and don't depend so much on your MySQL version etc (ie if you changed MySQL versions since the backup was taken, a restore might be very troublesome).

I do not see anything that looks wrong. Are you using spooling? I use
spooling with most clients except a few jobs that originate on the

Only guesses here:
- - Did you restart all the respective daemons after setting up the
concurrency?
- - Are all the jobs running at the same priority level? (Jobs with
different priorities will not run concurrently)

Hi folks,
I'm trying to get my head around the details of tape devices, as in
/dev/st0.
I had thought that for each physical device, two nodes were created
/dev/st0 and /dev/nst0.
The latter does not rewind when closed, thats the one used with bacula.
Untrue! its creates 8 modes. For each on st and nst, there are {a,l,m}
suffixes. These are scsi modes.
Its documented that these have their own minor device numbers, but I
haven't found anything that explains the significance.
There's no real significance... nothing is mode 0, the default settings,
l is mode 1, m is mode 2 and a is mode 3. For some drives this allows
you to set the compression ratio (mode 1 being the lowest, mode 3 the
highest) some others use it for density settings etc etc but usually
it's not supported and unused.

Bacula really is not very interested in the slots in your autochanger. It does keep its own inventory of the available tapes. So you probably need to update the catalog - 'update slots' would be the command for this - or set up your pools to contain only the volumes you want to use. Also note that, if all the other tapes run full and the remaining tape is marked as usable, Bacula will request it, no matter whether it is in the autochanger or not.

It should. The way I understood it is that Bacula first determines what job level to use. For that, it checks several things (schedule, is there a full backup that's valid, ...) and one of them is the MD5 hash of the FileSet definition. If that hash (stored at the time of the last backup?) doesn't match the current one, Bacula upgrades the backup to Full, unless 'Ignore Fileset Changes' is set. In the latter case, Bacula may (or may not) run an Incremental/Differential as usual while taking into account whatever you changed in the FileSet (ie if you added sth, it should see it as new and back it up, if you removed sth, it shouldn't back it up any more).

Re: [Bacula-users] Considering move from Amanda
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello, Charles Sprickman wrote: Lastly, anyone here who has already made the switch, I'd love to hear about how that went and what prompted you to switch. As all the other items have already been answered, I'll just reply to this bit. I moved away from Amanda (several years ago) for three reasons: 1. Amanda just stopped working for me due to its reliance on external programs. I have to backup mostly Win32 machines which Amanda would do through SMB. What I only found out after several months of getting nowhere (I wasn't all too Linux savvy at the time) was that it used smbclient for that and that smbclient had changed its output format (they had added a single blank line and that had broken Amanda's ability to back up my Windows machines). Bacula has a native File Daemon (agent) for Win32 that does a great job at getting the files to the backup server. 2. The ability to append backups to tapes. The office doesn't have much money, so using tapes efficiently by filling them to the brim is a definite plus. Amanda wouldn't append to a tape hence wasting a lot of space on them despite its scheduling. Bacula does this just fine, provided you set up your tape drive correctly (use the btape tests, ...). 3. The ability to span backups over tapes. As the office grew, so did their data and at some point in time, Amanda would simply have trouble fitting jobs to the tapes. Bacula simply spans the job to the next available tape when one is full (again, if the tape drive is set up properly). As for Amanda's 'smart scheduling' of jobs, I never really missed it. I just put the appropriate resources to the task (a nice Quantum Superloader 3 Autochanger that takes care of swapping the tapes as required during the backup jobs) and never looked back.

Re: [Bacula-users] auto bacula install?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Matt wrote: I am trying to implement bacula in an office with up to 30 windows clients connecting to a linux server. The idea is to have the user install the file daemon themselves. However the win32 package on bacula.org requires the user to edit the config files themselves. The users in this office are not computer savvy so it would be nice to cut that part out. Any thoughts Well, you could drop the config files onto the user's PCs via the network, then run the Bacula installer in silent mode (checkout the /S switch). Alternatively, you can build your own installer using the .NSI files and NSIS (http://nsis.sf.net). The biggest problem is that the config files are really custom for every installation and while a discovery and config deployment system within the director (where clients would for example just get installed without any data and then use mdns or whatever to find the director and their settings) would be very cool, it is also quite far away from what Bacula is actually supposed to do: Taking backups. The installer could also be changed to parse a specific config file (put both in the same directory, run the installer and it does everything according to its 'script') it's just a matter of finding somebody able to do so and defining the 'best' way to do it.

Re: [Bacula-users] Questions for Bacula Windows users ...
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Kern Sibbald wrote: Hello, If you are a user of Bacula on Windows, I would be interested in your responses to the following: 1. I am considering to change the default installation location for Bacula on Windows to be the same as it was previously -- that is the \bacula directory on the main disk. The current installation places files in the standard Windows locations, but IMO, it is very inconvenient because they are extremely long names with spaces that are very hard to remember, and are sprayed all over the disk. I definitely prefer the 'old' way of putting everything in c:\bacula and have kept my FD installations that way when the new installer came out. I don't care what M$ says, having the program in a directory that is not OS language specific, doesn't contain spaces and is self contained offers me certain advantages over their Program Files + Documents and Settings + Registry mess, namely: - - Language independant paths: I can use external scripts to update Bacula. No need to push an installer and somehow coerce the Windows box to run it so that it can resolve the pathnames 'locally': I can just give an RPC command to shut down the FD, map the drive, place the new files in the standard directory and have the FD service come up through RPC again.) - - No spaces in filenames: Obviously this avoids many issues with having to quote pathnames in config files etc etc. - - Everything in/under one directory: After running the uninstaller, ensuring that everything is gone is easily done by wiping said directory. Similarly, finding the configuration files for the program is much easier that way than having to wade through Documents and Settings\variable_username\(Local Settings\)Application Data. Apart from it's what M$ wants, I do not see any advantage to actually using their convention (unless people use roaming profiles, but I doubt Bacula is a candidate for that). At least the config files of a program should always stay with it. That's my, very biased, 2 Eurocents. ;) That said, as I'm only using the Win32 FD, the defaults in the installer doesn't really bother me. I simply unpack the files from it using 7-Zip and then build my own or manually install the FD. I don't think I can help with any of the other points, maybe the regression scripts if that is doable in a VM and doesn't require any hardware?

As an example here's my setup: # cat /proc/scsi/scsi Attached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00 Vendor: CERTANCE Model: ULTRIUM 2Rev: 1914 Type: Sequential-AccessANSI SCSI revision: 03 Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 01 Vendor: QUANTUM Model: UHDL Rev: 0043 Type: Medium Changer ANSI SCSI revision: 02 The ULTRIUM 2 is my drive, on host 0, channel 0, ID/target 5 and LUN 0 UHDL is my changer device (as seen in the 'Type) on host 0, channel 0, ID/target 5 and LUN1 The resulting scsidev device nodes are: Tape drive: /dev/scsi/nsth0-0c0i5l0 Changer: /dev/scsi/sgh0-0c0i5l1 (Note the beginning of the name that represents 'nst', 'sg', ...)

Re: [Bacula-users] Install bacula using MySQL where MySQL isn't on same server

I built and ran it fine on my home server and noticed it pulling in the MySQL headers etc, but that server hosted everything (RH6). It is certainly possible to have the MySQL base on a different server, check out the manual: http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/FileSet_Resource.html#SECTION00159 You may also have to adapt the make_bacula_tables (and similar) scripts before running them. The fact that Bacula pulls in the MySQL headers when compiling is normal, without them, it wouldn't be able to 'speak MySQL'.

But I'm more concerned about the build. will ./configure --with-mysql work with no mysql-devel etc on the machine? No, you will need mysql-devel to compile in MySQL support. Do you have to temporarily do a full install of MySQL ( devel) ? You normally don't need MySQL to install the -dev packages (at least that's not the case on my distro).

Re: [Bacula-users] DHCP IP addresses
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Bill Szkotnicki wrote: Hi, I am experimenting with using a linux server with bacula ( director and storage ) to backup windows clients on our network. I works well! BUT When the windows client machine is turned off for a long time it is possible for it to get a new IP address from DHCP and then the backups stop working because the director config file has the Address hard coded. Is there any remedy for this? Hmm, I know there's a command called 'setip' that's supposed to allow clients to communicate their IP to the directory, but I have no clue how to impement it. In my case, I've simply told the clients to update the nameserver with their IPs and supplied their DNS names to Bacula.

I know Bacula can handle other devices quite well. My statement was that for tape drives, only SCSI types are working reliable on Linux with Bacula (can't say anything about Windows). It is not that simple. Bacula does work with some non-SCSI drives, but the only ones I know of are Windows drivers (just confirmed by Robert) and in the Bacula DID work very well with my old OnStream DI-30 (IDE) drive but initially it took a lot of work and the help of both Kern and Willem, the osst driver developer, to get it to run. With OnStream gone bankrupt, their proprietary tape format has pretty much disappeared and hence the drives I have have become useless (can't get any tapes for them any more). Your best bet really is to get the driver developers involved.

[Bacula-users] Adding an autochanger to bweb...
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I think I already asked this one but can't recall getting an answer to it: While playing around in bweb, I found an 'add autochanger' button, clicking it, I found a form to fill in with an empty drop down box (not showing my autochanger). I traced where bweb gets this data from and found out that the Device table in my MySQL database is empty. Now of course my question: Is that normal? When should that table be populated or what could cause it to be empty? And what benefits do I actually get from telling bweb about my autochanger (or is this a non-working bit that's under development)?
