Hey Mr. McGraw: you should try LabelFormat =
xxx-${NumVols}.bac What is xxx? If is the client name you can
uses ${Client}. You could check all Bacula Variables via Google:
http://www.bacula.org/5.2.x-manuals/en/misc/misc/Variable_Expansion.html
Thanks for that suggestion. I read the Variable Expansion
chapter many times but interpreted current number of Volumes in
the Pool as being a fixed number for a pool with a large number of
pre-labeled volumes.
I just tried using NumVols but the number it produced was 5177. I
guess was wrong about the pre-labeled part but it does seem to be
total number of volumes in the pool and not a number for the
volumes used in the current job so far which is what I need.
1. Sorry for misunderstanding it. I really don't see the need of
associating volumes names with their jobs and it can be very messy
when they are recycled, since a Job can take a variable amount of
volumes and Bacula already provide that association (e.g: list
jobmedia, restore job..., etc.).
I agree it is messy (I would say unworkable) when recycling is
used but I don't do recycling.
I backup to smaller-than-DVD sized disk volumes and write those
to DVD. In such an environment, volume recycling is pointless.
All post-bacula handling (write to DVD, off-siting, moving
storage locations around to fit varying storage needs/capacities,
etc) are done by hand or with the help of scripts since Bacula
provides no support for DVD as a storage medium. I find it
easier to manage those tasks when I can look at filename and
be able to determine information about what is in the volume
than to have to go though a level of indirection for that information,
either by asking Bacula or querying the catalog database directly.
And of course the current labeling scheme is baked into the
scripts that I have to help with the post-bacula volume management.
I've been using the current labeling scheme successfully for
5 years, including disaster recovery simulation so I don't see
a strong reason to change now unless I have to.
Hi,
are you sure that you cant configure bacula to make a backup direct to DVD ???
I have one client configured to use a DVD storage just now.
basicaly, I backup all information from clients to internal bacula
disk and after this I make a job copy to DVD (internal disk to DVD).
about the label name, if the idea is just to make easy to manual
select the volume... maybe you can use:
Client_name-Date-JodID
good luck

[Bacula-users] problem with job copy and retention period
Hi...
I have this situation:
A small SD in the server (2TB) with a retention period of 3 months.
and a other SD in a disk USB (1TB) with a retention period of 1 month.
Note: the idea is leave only the more recently backups (one month) in
internal and external disk.. .and the oldest backup in the internal
disk (we don't believe that we will need this old backups in the
future).
I have configured the bacula director to copy all jobs from server to
disk USB...
that worded OK.. but after a month.. the director purge the volumes
with one month or more at the disk USB and after this the director
copy the old jobs again to usb disk !! :-(
my job copy is configured to copy all uncopied jobs
(PoolUncopiedJobs).. but, apparently the director consider that if the
volume don't exist in the other SD, the volume isn't copied and make a
new copy job !!!
any idea to workaround this ??

[/mnt/vchanger/49299ccc-6489-43f8-9536-d63dd3de9663]
So the disk-group can initialize the magazine, the bacula-group has
problems.
I looked at the udev-rules, but there is nothing there that rings a bell.
So, bacula:bacula cannot write, but bacula:disk can, yet all accessed
directories appear to be owned by bacula:bacula? What group does the
bacula-sd daemon run as? On Fedora, it is typical for bacula-dir to run
as bacula:bacula, while bacula-sd runs as bacula:disk. Perhaps this is
an selinux thing? Maybe the simple solution is to change everything to
be owned by bacula:disk and run bacula-sd as bacula:disk.

Bacula uses the media type to choose the storage. You need to configure

match.

LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes;

}
basically, I changed the parameter Media Type from File to File1
on section storage in director's configuration file and device in
storage's configuration file..
after this changes, I restarted the director and storage and on
console I tried to update the volumes with update command, but don't
worked... :-(
In documentation of console
(http://www.bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Bacula_Console.html#SECTION00215),
I don't see options for update the parameter Media Type of current
volumes !!!
When you wrote
then update the existing volumes to match.
You wanted make reference to command update of console or other method ??
some documentation or help about this ??
very much thanks

[Bacula-users] Restore job don't know in which storage is the volume
Hello Masters..
I have a small problem with bacula (2.4.2) and a restore job..
My structure is very simples, one director and 2 storages.
Some servers backup your files on storage1 and other servers on the storage2.
the problem is that when I run the restore job (command restore in
console), all work fine until I select the files and go to next step,
look:
(any irrelevant part are deleted)
==
*restore
Automatically selected Catalog: MyCatalog
Using Catalog MyCatalog
To select the JobIds, you have the following choices:
1: List last 20 Jobs run

OK to run? (yes/mod/no):
==
If I select yes... bacula show this message:

Job: Restaurar.2009-10-30_15.13.09
Storage: FileStorage (/var/bacula)
Pool: Default
Media type: File
==
because the volumen isn't on storage0, but yes on storage1.
well.. IMHO, the problem is in this line:
--
Storage not found, using Storage Storage0 from MediaType File.
Bootstrap records written to /var/lib/bacula/bacula-dir.restore.2.bsr
--
why bacula, don't know in which local/storage it saved the volume and
try to use the storage0 for default ??
I my case, I have only two storage, but if I have more storages ???
will be need select one for one to locate which storage have the
volumen ???
My restore job on director is:
==
Job {
Name = Restaurar
Type = Restore
Client = bacula-fd
FileSet=Completo
Storage = Storage0
Pool = Default
Messages = Standard
Where = /tmp/bacula-restores
}
==
understand my problem???
there a workaround?
thanks

yes.. is possible..
basically, bacula consider all files type as files !! :D
I want to make 2 FileSet on the server and 2 bacula-fd listenning on 2

Is this a good solution ?
noo..
you only need specific the directory or path of files (with or without
encryptation) in FileSet resources
http://www.bacula.org/manuals/en/install/install/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION0067
for example:
Include {
File = /folder/with/encrypted/files
File = /other/folder/without/encrypted/files
Options { compression=GZIP }
}

you receive any error when you run this job ??

this is all FileSet resource ?? is the same that you use actualy on

Another useful feature might be a wildcard excludefromcompression

excludefromcompression {

pattern = *.gz

}
this is a very good recommendation..
I think that this options for exclude zip, gz, mp3 and other

I update all bacula software (clients and servers) in my network.. now, all have the same version.. but my problem persist. I create a other FileSet in director that contain only the /etc folder and running a backup of my machine, changed only fileset option to backup /etc folder.. work fine the compresion now.. I was reading backup.c, bfile.c, attribs.c files and apparently not is possible compress encrypted data (Obs.: I'm not a programmer/developer !!!) and in my system (/home/ partition), I use encfs to encrypt files !!! :-( is true that bacula don't compress encrypted files or data ?? and in positive case, why ??? thanks -- -- Victor Hugo dos Santos Linux Counter #224399 -- ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
