[Bacula-users] Bcopy help
Hello everyone, I am wanting to copy data from one tape to a second tape so I have one offsite and the other onsite. I am using the bcopy utility but when I enter the following command I receive an error message: bcopy -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf -i LTO-4-0 -o LTO-4-1 -v bcopy: bcopy.c:163 Wrong number of arguments: Copyright (C) 2002-2010 Free Software Foundation Europe e.V. Version: 5.0.1 (24 February 2010) Usage: bcopy [-d debug_level] input-archive output-archive -b bootstrap specify a bootstrap file -c file specify a Storage configuration file -d nn set debug level to nn -dt print timestamp in debug output -ispecify input Volume names (separated by |) -ospecify output Volume names (separated by |) -pproceed inspite of errors -vverbose -w dir specify working directory (default /tmp) -?print this message I have the bacula services turned off and am referencing the device names in bacula-sd.conf. The storage devices are tape drives in a Dell TL-2000 tape library and I have tapes mounted in their respective drives. If anyone could offer some assistance I would appreciate it. Thanks.

It looks from that you are missing the input-archive and output-archive. Although I am not at the moment sure what is expected for these (device names? /dev/nst0 ...)

Re: [Bacula-users] Bcopy help
John, I have tried using the device names (i.e. /dev/nst2 and /dev/nst3) instead and receive the same error.

John Hi, Could you try something like this: bcopy -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf -i LTO-4-0 -o LTO-4-1 /dev/nst2 /dev/nst3 I have never used bcopy with two tape drives. In the bcopy documentation is a note about that this compliance with two tape drives has been never tested. In addition I suggest to add debug to your bcopy command, eg. bcopy -d 400 -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf -i LTO-4-0 -o LTO-4-1 /dev/nst2 /dev/nst3 Good luck! :) gani -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

I created a bootstrap file with the tape volume names in it separated by a | symbol and then used the following command which was successful: bcopy -b /etc/bacula/list.bsr -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf /dev/nst3 /dev/nst2 Jack Cobb -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
