[Bacula-users] Offsite Volumes | GFS Schedule | Policy Planning
All, a couple of things: There doesn't seem to be an official definition of GFS, but the most popular explanation to be found involves Full/0 backups on Friday and incremental/differentials on Monday through Thursday. That's great for 9-5 office environments, but what about data centers? It's very hard to find explanations/examples that involve a 7-day cycle, and specifically how off-site tape rotation (and retention) policies integrates with GFS style backups cycles. 1) Can I get a testimony from someone who is actively using a GFS schedule with Bacula? Per the section A Daily, Weekly, Monthly Tape Usage Example in the manual? 1a) The standard GFS system could be modified to permit weekend backups performing a Full/0 backup on Sunday instead of Friday? Just add two tapes and find a data storage service that delivers on Weekends? 2) Generally speaking, off-site tape rotation occurs from copies of Level 0/Full backups? Off site storage can happen weekly, monthly, or quarterly. Quarterly and Monthly meant for non-recycled permanent off-site storage, and weekly meant for facility destruction contingency plans? But how is that commonly accomplished most frequently in practice? Weekly (Father) off-site copies simply a rotation through a 5 tape (for a 1-month retention policy) Pool? Or is it more common to leave the weekly/full tape at the facility and *duplicate* the Weekly/Full after it has finished running? How would that work with Monthly (Grandfather)? After all, a monthly (Grandfather) would simply be an extra or second copy of the Weekly Full/Level0 moved off-site with the regular copy, but only if it's the last Friday/Week of the month? Are there provisions in Bacula for in-line duplication of full tapes? Multiplexing? I.e., spool the data from the client once, write it twice, one to the weekly Full/Level 0 left on site, one to the off-site copy? (Would the Catalog have duplicate entries?) Or is this a process normally done manually using two tape drives? Using dd(1) perhaps? I see the docs btape/bscan. I assume this means that there is no way of telling Bacula about multiple copies of data on different tape members in different volumes. Thus it is the responsibility of the administrator to keep track of which tapes are on/off site for weekly replication/off site storage. A mapping must be kept between the volume IDs of the on/off-site copies. - Here's where it gets complicated with off-site storage / GFS integration. Duplication scenario: - At any given time, there are 4 of 5 tapes in my Weekly Pool off-site. - The on-site member tape sits in the changer and gets written/duplicated with the Full/level0. - The Full/Level0 backup occurs, gets multiplexed to both tapes *or* manually duplicated afterward. - I arrange/move of the duplicate to off-site storage immediately after it is written. - At the same time, the next tape from the weekly pool is delivered (It is 4 weeks old, it sits idle next to current Full/Level0) - With this method, I have a current Full/Level 0 tape copy off-site to recovery to a DR site with any time between then and the next full backup. - I also have the a copy of the current Full/Level 0 tape copy on-site for to recover from. - The worst case scenario is a disaster on the day before the next Full backup. If I have to recovery data to a DR site, the max age is 6-7 days old. Non-Duplication scenario: - At any given time, there are 4 of 5 tapes in my weekly Pool off-site. - The on-site tape sits in the changer and gets written/duplicated with the Full/Level0 job. - That tape must be kept-on site until the next Full/Level0 to permit for recovery from itself plus any incremental tape dependencies between the last Full/Level0. - Before the next Full/Level0 is written, the next member tape in the pool must be delivered and the exchanged with the current one. - With this method, there is no current off-site backup. Your newest or most-current off-site Full/Level0 is at any given time at least 7 days old *plus* the number of days in incremental since (as many as 12/13 days old). ~lava --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Bacula-users] Hit me w/ a Clue-by-Four (Amanda user)
Sorry to keep flooding the list...but I live for this stuff:} Situation: 1) I have multiple servers, different platforms, different functions 2) Some servers have common paths to be backed up (/etc, /var/log, etc.) 3) Some have platform/function-specific paths: (/var/adm, /opt/oracle) 4) A Job can only define one fileset 5) Per the manual: If you want to backup multiple FileSets on the same Client or multiple Clients, you must define a Job for each one. 6) Multiple Jobs can be assigned to the same schedule 7) Multiple Jobs can be assigned to the same storage medium 8) Thus, multiple jobs could be started in sequence/parallel As an Amanda user, I'm accustomed dot a 1:1:1:1? ratio of ... media/storage:schedule:clients:paths. I'm accustomed to the idea that the job will start, fetch all of the files in the disklist to a local disk spool, then write them to a single volume. Now I have to bring my thinking back into alignment with Bacula. The bacula-dir.conf syntax is perpetually more convenient. I like the abstraction between jobs/schedules/filesets/clients. It's resembles data modeling of an RDBMS. Therein, ideally I don't want to have to define ... a file set for ... for each client for each job. Because that just leads to duplication and lack of flexibility. However, Per #8 above, I'm trying to setup: two jobs... same client... different filesets same schedule same DefJobs and thus the same schedule/pool/storage the same might apply to: four jobs two clients one shared fileset one client-specific fileset per same schedule same DefJobs But in either configuration, the jobs launch at the same time in the scheduler and run in series/serial. Thus, if the database is purged, and each job is configured as incremental, and there is no record of a full backup, each job is promoted to Full, so the first job runs completes, then asks for the next tape in the pool. This is not the expected behavior (imho). I'd expect it to consolidate all jobs that are schedule to run at the same time, with the same storage, same pool, same priority, to the same volume.

Re: [Bacula-users] user complains bacula slows his laptop
- - Validate that memory usage claim - - Ensure that the client system has UDMA running properly on all harddrives (Drives running in PIO modes generate loads of interrupts and thus bog down the CPU), on Windows you can check this in the Device Manager (see the IDE controllers' properties there), on Linux this can be checked with hdparm. This one is important and often overlooked. It doesn't really matter. Most laptops are still 4200 RPM drives. Newer ones are 5400; and 7200 relatively bleeding edge. We're talking about Windows here, let's not forget .:} - - Check the CPU load of the client during backup (especially if you use GZIP client compression).

Sounds like it marked the tape as 'Used' or 'Full' instead of leaving it
open for appends...
That's exactly what's happening. See below.
This is not the expected behavior (imho). I'd expect it to consolidate
all jobs that are schedule to run at the same time, with the same
storage, same pool, same priority, to the same volume.
Bacula will do this. Check you don't have Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 in
I do. This is because I'm trying to enforce a specific threshold of a
single-tape-per-day policy.
I can manage volume capacity myself. I'd like to override Bacula's
default behavior of auto-picking a tape based on status/capacity/recycle
time.
I'd essentially like to Micro-Manage it perhaps.
I want my tapes to be written to by the scheduled jobs for their daily
assignment, by all the jobs scheduled to run at that time, and then be
marked Used.
The trick is, if all the jobs run at the same time, don't mark the
volume Used or Full until after they've all run.
Recycling will automatically mark them Append after my expected
threshold (hopefully) for re-use some time during the next cycle.
I think the problem here is that Bacula doesn't consider multiple Jobs
{}s as defined in *-dir.conf that start at the exact same time per
their shared schedule as a single Job in retrospect to on-tape format.
If there was a broader name for any series of jobs on the same schedule,
say JobSet, Batch, or Aggregate, the option I'm looking for would
be called:
Maximum Jobs Batch = 1
Maximum Scheduled Jobset = 1
Thoughts?

If I llist the volume:

in bconsole status dir:

However, the recycle flag remains, which I guess is okay (static flag,

recycle the volume until Status changes back to Used.

I immediately get:

So it seems that the director/SD only seems to process these time-based
directives
[Bacula-users] Archive Device SubdirSuffix = %volumeName
If you want to write into more than one directory (i.e. to spread the
load to different disk drives), you will need to define two Device
resources, each containing an Archive Device with a different
directory.
That works, but then you're required to make difficult decisions/changes
to your Schedule{}'ing to override your Pool's default Media.
This is because For every Device{} entry in your SD config, you need a
new Storage{} entry in your DIR config. Different volumes can be in the
same pool, but generally each job only defines one Storage{}.
So if you have a Device:
Device {
Name = FileStorage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /usr/dump1
...
} AND:
Device {
Name = FileStorage2
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /usr/dump2
...
}
And your jobdefs:
JobDefs {
Pool = Daily
Storage = FileStorage
}
And Pool:
Pool {
Name = Daily
...
}
You now need two Storage entries:
Storage {
Name = FileStorage
...
Device = FileStorage
Media Type = File
}
Storage {
Name = FileStorage1
Device = FileStorage1
Media Type = File
}
Then you can create two volumes/disk-tapes, assign them to two different
Storage devices, and place them in the same Pool:
+-+---+---+---
| mediaid | volumename| volstatus | volbytes |
+-+---+---+-
| 8 | CFusionDaily0 | Recycle |1 |
| 9 | CFusionDaily1 | Append|1 |
*THE PROBLEM* is that your DefJobs defines Storage = FileStorage and
to get to volume CFusionDaily1, you must override the Storage = in
your Job{} using a Schedule{} line:
Run = Level=Incremental Pool=Daily on mon at 14:45
Run = Level=Incr* Pool=Daily Storage=FileStorage1 on mon at 14:45
Thus you can no longer take advantage of Schedule{} syntax expressions
like mon-sat, you must now have a separate schedule line for each day,
because each day's tape is in a different meta-storage-device.
I can only imagine what happens if a job requires more than two tapes
:}
-
Example, let's say you want to put your 6 days of Daily tapes into
Storage FileStorage. You create / label 6 volumes with:
Maximum Part Size = 32,212,254,720 (30 gig). You can then nicely fit
all of your daily's onto a 200 gig disk/file system
mounted /var/spool/bacula.
Over time, the system grows. You need to resize your File based
meta-tapes to 200gig.
If it's RAID/LVM, you have to tear it down and rebuild the volume with
new members. Futhermore, ext3 and UFS only support growfs(8) with
partitions on the same media.
I don't know about Linux LVM growing volumes across multiple disks, but
the only file system I know capable of that is Veritas VXFS.
RAID isn't optimal for this application anyway.
The best solution is NAS/SAN that presents you with individual disk
units not RAID'd/LVM'd at all. Let's say you have a 12-chassis
direct-attached-storage array, each disk is 300gig, and you want to
mount each component at a mount point as /var/spool/bacula/tape[##],
thus overlapping a pre-defined naming scheme that Bacula expects to
use:
# df
Filesystem1K-blocks UsedAvail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/ar0s1a 3784662814502 37075194 0%/bacula/Daily000
/dev/ar1s1a 3784662814502 37075194 0%/bacula/Daily001
/dev/ar2s1a 3784662814502 37075194 0%/bacula/Daily002
/dev/ar3s1a 3784662814502 37075194 0%/bacula/Daily003
/dev/ar4s1a 3784662814502 37075194 0%/bacula/Daily004
/dev/ar5s1a 3784662814502 37075194 0%/bacula/Daily005
Archive Device = /bacula
Archive Device SubdirSuffx = %volume
Thus you could consolidate your daily backups into one Storage{} /
Device{} combination, while actually spanning the load across multiple
disks without the need for constantly rebuilding the meta-file system
underneath.
You can also simply add and remove components on-the-fly, needing only
to remount them in accordance with what Bacula expects to label them as.
Thoughts?

Re: Date/Time poll'ing ? (WAS: Re: [Bacula-users] Simulate/Test Scheduler?)
{Increm/Diferer}ential to Full...
How often does the Director poll the system date time? How often does
the Storage director? I don't see any options in the config to control
this. Specifically, for periodic maintenance like
recycling/pruning/volume status flagging.
AFAIK, these maintenance operations are never run on their own. They are
always triggered by other operations such as a job running or 'status dir'
It would be nice if there was some signal or other mechanism to trigger
it. For example, if a volume is scheduled to recycle 12 hours after
the job run (or after X jobs), I might want to verify that tonight's
volume has been pruned/recycled, last night's is marked used, and
things look good for tonight's backups before I run out to the pub.
I guess I can script a non-interactive cron job that issues status dir
every few hours and bumps it off to me.
I'm used to Amanda's amstatus e-mailing me at 4:45 every day :}
Thanks for the help!

Every firewall has a different timeout for TCP sockets. I would investigate what the maximum NAT/PAT time duration is on yours.

When it comes to marking tapes as Used or Full, there seem to be two

So, you can either say 23 hours after the first job which wrote to

tape {started,finished}, mark it as used to get you a new tape every
day (I'm not sure which of those two options applies, but I guess it's
in TFM somewhere)
Or, you can say After n jobs have been written to this tape, close
it
off/mark it used
Ahhhand this means after Max Retention passes, the tapes get flagged
recycle and so there's always one tape marked recycle/append and the
rest are marked used?
This is definately good material for the Backup Strategy chapter in

If you trust Bacula itself, use the show job=xxx command. Part of the
output here:
Also, here's an example of what I mean when I say Simulation, and I
suspect the developers might have a similar testing approach, it's just
not documented/adopted.
Overall approach:
*) Use File or Disk based meta-tapes (Volumes) to save
auto-changer / manual intervention time
*) Designate your jobs to start at some even point in time in the
future.
*) Manually label your volumes; make a copy of them with just the header
written.
*) Flush the database, re-create it from scratch
*) PGDump and reload the database records of interest (media table)
*) Run the FD/SD/DIR in foreground mode with -f -d100
*) Move the clock forward in increments of 12 hours using a for [] loop
in bourne shell
-
Thus, to simulate a new schedule:
1) Kill the DIR process
2) rm(1) the tape volume data files
3) sh drop_postgresql_tables ; sh drop_postgresql_database
4) cp(1)/tar(1) the original tape volume data files back into place
5) sh make_postgresql_tables ; sh grant_postgresql_privileges
6) Create the DB entries to accompany the volumes:
INSERT INTO media VALUES (1, 'CFusionDaily0', 0, 1, 'File', 0, NULL,
NULL, '2006-02-12 20:30:23', 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 'Append', 1,
518400, 82800, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
INSERT INTO media VALUES (2, 'CFusionDaily1', 0, 1, 'File', 0, NULL,
NULL, '2006-02-12 20:30:23', 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 'Append', 1,
518400, 82800, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
[]
7) Set the date:
# date 200602131149.45
Sun Feb 12 21:59:45 EST 2006
8) Set the schedule for noon
9) Start the dir with -f -d100
10) Simulate status update poll'ing with:
# while true; do echo -n status dir | bconsole; sleep 10; done
11) Move the the time ahead in increments and test your schedule /

[Bacula-users] Disable upgrade of Incremental to Full?
Is there any way to disable the auto-upgrade option of Incremental/ Differential to Full or stipulate that an Incremental / Differential job failure condition occurs when no Full backup exists (instead of promotion)? ~lava smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
Re: [Bacula-users] Disable upgrade of Incremental to Full?
I think we might be talking about: Rerun Failed Levels = yes|no If this directive is set to yes (default no), and Bacula detects that a previous job at a higher level (i.e. Full or Di erential) has failed, the current job level will be upgraded to the higher level. This is particularly useful for Laptops where they may often be unreachable, and if a prior Full save has failed, you wish the very next backup to be a Full save rather than whatever level it is started as. Obviously there's some ambiguity here. Because the default behavior seems to be Yes, program-wide. Actually, that would be true if it red: If Bacula detects that a previous job at a higher level has not occurred, or has occurred but is on a tape that was pruned/purged. What option were you guys thinking? There are 30 instances of the word Upgrade in the manual; but only 6 are in relation to Backup Levels. Perhaps we need to use the work Promotion or another synonym ? ~lava On Mon, 2006-02-13 at 22:26, Ryan Novosielski wrote: If I remember correctly, it's right in the manual.

I create a Daily and a Weekly pool for GFS, both with 23h Max Use

Re: [Bacula-users] Disable upgrade of Incremental to Full?
has not occurred, or has occurred but is on a tape that was pruned/purged. What option were you guys thinking? Something that allowed a incremental/differential to run after the FileSet had been updated, instead of a full. Right, You can't mix match Full and Incremental jobs on the same tape if you plan to do off-site storage, *WITHOUT* an internal data structure identifying copies, inside the database. I can't remember if Legato has that feature or not; my memory is pretty well scared from the days of Solaris, but that seems correct. ~lava smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature

Re: [Bacula-users] Virtual Disk Autochager
RAID5 is best with a hot spare volume, otherwise...what's the advantage that justifies increased write overhead? Besides, does the file system you're backing up to require any more redundancy from a disk technology standpoint than you might expect out of the life expectancy of a single DLT tape? Consider this, if you present these individual disks as 250? 300? gig individual volumes / file system mount points to Bacula, you *can't* tell Bacula to put each file tape on a different mount point and/or sub-directory. I've discussed this in the past and what that would require is the concept of a File Storage Directory Prefix, i.e: /dev/da0s1a /storage/bacula/Daily0 /dev/da1s1a /storage/bacula/Daily1 /dev/da2s1a /storage/bacula/Daily2 ~BAS smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
Re: [Bacula-users] Virtual Disk Autochager
individual volumes / file system mount points to Bacula, you *can't* tell Bacula to put each file tape on a different mount point and/or sub-directory. This *can* be accomplished by using symbolic linking. In an application that Ahh good point. Moreover, with RAID5, unless you're using Veritas VFS or maybe FreeBSD VINUM/Linux LFS, you can't grow the underlying file system size without a complete teardown and rebuild. You could use growfs(8) on a FreeBSD vinum (RAID0, RAID5) composed of individual disks, but I think for this application individual disk mount points are ideal. ~BAS smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature

All: It doesn't actually say it should in the docs, but it would normally be implied that if you can instruct Bacula to explicitly specify the source for incoming TCP connections to listen on, that the same address would automatically be used to as the source address of outgoing connections from the Dir to FDs/SDs (and of course, source ports being irrelevant). But it isn't. This would be nice to help create system - service abstraction (i.e,, the Bacula service on a machine is tied to a VIP that can easily be moved along with the Config).

Re: [Bacula-users] AIX 5.2 Compilation Problems
Jake:
I don't have any personal experience with the GNU Toolchain on the AIX
platform, but since no one else responded I'll have a go.
If the GNU utils on AIX even remotely resemble the discord of Solaris,
then I can digress.
This is however unrelated to the as(1) problem you mentioned as best I
can tell. This is a ld(1) issue. In my experience, normally when this
happens, a .c file is trying to reference a C function linked in from a
shared library (.{,s}o). In this case, a bunch of .o's are being linked
into a final binary.
However bacula-1.38.8/src/console/*.{c,h} shouldn't be referencing
win32_client* functions at all if GNU Autoconf did it job(r).
I would be very curious to see if some #IFDEF'd win32 code maybe got
included because of your non-standard platform or because the
pre-processor is messed up. You can tell with gcc(1) -E.
Also, try nm(1) on all of these .o's (console.o console_conf.o
authenticate.o conio.o) and grep -i for win32.
Posting configure.log from that directory and the master source root to
a URL somewhere might be very insightful to the developers.

[Bacula-users] GNU autconf macro for HAVE_IPV6 check on NetBSD
[not sure if this is a user-@ or devel-@ topic -- the last/only ipv6
discussion I saw was to -users, so when you respond, please choose the
appropriate]
All:
The GNU autoconf macro below is what we use to test for IPv6 in 1.38.10.
It tries simply to instantiate a number of ipv6 structures.
However, on my platform (NetBSD/sparc 3_STABLE), it seems that it's
possible to confuse or mitigate/bypass this test ( I haven't tested
OpenBSD/FreeBSD for his behavior yet, because I know NetBSD does some
special IPV4 to IPV6 address mapping, and has some special IPV6
sysctls).
The IPV6 netinet6 socket family includes can be in
/usr/include/netinet6 , configure will find them, compile conftest.c
just fine, and pass this test, however the system can be built without
IPV6 support (removed from all of the userland binaries) and the Kernel.
The result is that Bacula compiles and links against IPV6 headers fine,
but when it runs, it fails to compile later on during the build:

*** Error code 1
The work around is to interrupt the build process and manually define
HAVE_INET6 0 in src/config.h in the mean time.
So what we may need to do is:
A) A more-aggressive ipv6 support test.
B) A --without-ipv6 or --disable-ipv6 argument that explicity defines
HAVE_IPV6 0
C) Or I may need to put a work-around in place for NetBSD (Bad)

Re: [Bacula-users] Binding to source IP address
Also, could you explain how it is possible to use a different address than the one which is assigned to your computer? In most shops, in almost all but the most basic configurations, the generally accepted practice is to create abstraction between the system and the service provided by it. Even if a system has a single service/function, it still binds the service to a Service VIP, or IP Alias (BSD). I.e., almost all machines have a Management Address and Service VIP, especially in non-RFC1918-space-only shops. To give you an idea why this is a policy in most places: For example, if a system crashes, you can pick up the VIP and move it to a different system in the same VLAN. ...OR, if that service VIP has a CNAME pointing to it, you can simply cut over the CNAME destination to a service VIP in a different VLAN without breaking all your clients. Thus, System-Service Abstraction This becomes especially paramount in High Availability configurations where at service VIP dangles between two or more servers. It is also extremely important when you're trying to manage firewall rule growth.

kernel to select both interface and port for the client socket. Some
clients allow binding to a particular port when needed for firewall
reasons. For example, named can be configured to bind its client socket
to port 53 when making client connections to a remote DNS server, but it
still doesn't bind to a particular interface as that would restrict routing.
I think this would have to be a feature request and a decision would
have to be made whether or not to implement it.

Re: [Bacula-users] Binding to source IP address
I have no idea how to control which address is used for outgoing
communications other than by configuring your network gateway to go through
the preferred device, which may not do exactly what you want.
I've just read through the whole thread. People seems to be getting
confused about a couple of concepts.
Firstly, consider the need to be able to manually specify the outbound
IPv4 address of Client connections from a daemon _as well_ as the
inbound address on which to listen for incoming service requests.
In most shops, in almost all but the most basic configurations, the
generally accepted practice is to create abstraction between the
system and the service provided by it. Even if a system has a
single service/function, it still binds the service to a Service VIP,
or IP Alias (BSD).
I.e., almost all machines have a Management Address and Service
VIP, especially in non-RFC1918-space-only shops.
To give you an idea why this is a policy in most places: For example,
if a system crashes, you can pick up the VIP and move it to a different
system in the same VLAN.
...OR, if that service VIP has a CNAME pointing to it, you can simply
cut over the CNAME destination to a service VIP in a different VLAN
without breaking all your clients.
Thus, System-Service Abstraction
This becomes especially paramount in High Availability configurations
where at service VIP dangles between two or more servers. Consider the
Linux-HA system.
It is also extremely important when you're trying to manage firewall
rule growth. At present, if you have multiple VIPs/IP Aliases on
Bacula, you can control which one Listening Sockets bind to, but say
for example, when writing rules that would permit the Director to send
control messages to File Daemons, or Storage Daemons to send messages to
Directors, or Consoles to Directors, you want your rules to reflect the
source address of the service VIP for new client sockets.
Consider ISC BIND named(8): It's got all kinds of crazy options for
binding listening sockets for incoming requests and specifying the
source _port_ and _address_ for outbound connections the daemon is
making in the capacity of a client:
Example:
options {
directory /;
listen-on { 1.2.3.4/32; };
query-source address 2.4.5.6 port 12346;
transfer-source 7.8.9.1;
notify-source 2.3.3.5;
}
All kinds of control.
-
Secondly, Socket Source Address/Port v.s. Routing
These are *completely autonomous concepts*. I just went through this
bringing -b from FreeBSD syslogd(8) over to NetBSD(8):
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/usr.sbin/syslogd/syslogd.c.diff?r1=1.78r2=1.79f=h
Check out lines 2107-2111
This is an example with UDP, but the song remains the insane for TCP.
When you bind(2)/listen(2) a socket(2), there are two modes: Passive and
active.
The address which a socket listens/binds is wildcard by default. You
can set it though with getaddrinfo(2)...intuitive function call name,
huh?! :}
Another good example are present in Apache's HTTP CVS:
srclib/apr/network_io/unix/sockaddr.c
There's no reference to any of this in any of Stevens` because those
were all written before the advent of HA and Distributed Systems,
possibly even IP Aliases/VIPs.
Per my notes on Service/System abstraction, if a system has multiple
interfaces, there are two possibilities:
*) The interfaces could have addresses in different subnets
*) The interfaces could have addresses in the same subnets
A system could also have multiple VIPs or IP Aliases (BSD) on the
same interface within the same Subnet (the most likely scenario).
When you specifically bind the source address of an outgoing TCP socket
to a specific VIP or Primary IP on an interface, the decision as to
which interface to transmit the outgoing packets is not made in the TCP
code, it is made at the next layer down on the OSI model -- the
underlying IPv4/IPv6 protocol.
Example, if a system has two NICs. One within a management subnet with
RFC1918 address space, we'll say 10.0.0.100, and another with two IPs, a
primary IP and a service VIP in a public subnet, we'll say 216.239.37.99
and 216.239.37.100.
Consider the routing:
Assume for the sake of sanity that the subnet masks on both interfaces
are /25 on the public interface and /23 on the RFC1918 interface. Via
Directly Connected Interfaces, the system knows about 216.239.37.0/25
via Ext, and 10.0.0.0/23 via Int. It may also have a Default
Gateway configured of 215.239.37.1/32. He may also know about a
greater 10.0.0.0/8 via a Static Route via some internal
router/firewall at 10.0.0.1 -- manually configured route add -net
10.0.0.0/8 gw 10.0.0.1.
Obviously, the default semantics apply to most modern operating systems:
*) A layer 4 socket number discriminator is of course always required
for UDP/TCP, but not for ICMP/TCP/ESP/AH/etc.

[Bacula-users] GNUAutconf IPV6 Testing Strategy (WAS: [Fwd: [Bacula-devel] GNU autconf macro for HAVE_IPV6 check on NetBSD])
It seems that there are actually several permutations of systems by
which the IPv6 checks needs to take into account:
- Systems that don't support ipv6 (Minix)
- Systems that support ipv6 and have both kernel and userland support
compiled in and headers present
- Systems that shipped/installed with ipv6 userland/kernel, but the
administrator disabled ipv6 during the _kernel_ profiling process
- Systems that shipped/installed with ipv6 userland/kernel, but the
administrator disabled ipv6 during the _kernel profiling process_ AND
recompiled the entire _user-land_ (a la, libc) w/ NO_IPV6=true in
mk.conf(5) / make.conf(5) but the ipv6 headers/libraries remain
although no binaries are linked into them.
- Systems that support ipv6 in the kernel/userland but lack headers
(Which would be just about every distribution of Linux by default
since install every package never seems to imply ($1)-devel.*
RPMs.)
The current macro/test simply tries instantiate an ipv6 addr struct; but
doesn't actually try to move between userland and kernel to validate
functionality.
That's what is causing the breakage here in NetBSD. The problem is that
the symbol in question is not contained within libc after a recompile.
In my case, the system has been profiled.
Perhaps additional macros could could be instituted which not only try
to instantiate copies of inet6 address structures but actually utilize
them (perhaps try to bind(2) or connect(2)
The work-around here is to declare:
USE_INET6=no
MKINET6=no
NO_INET6=no
HAVE_IPV6=no
in mk.conf(5)
As for Pkgsrc and buildlink3 magic, it would be nice if:
PKG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS+=-inet6
PKG_OPTIONS.bacula= -inet6
...somehow tricked configure[.sh] about the availability
of /usr/include/netinet6/*
Bacula could help facilitate by implementing a --without-ipv6 or
--disable-ipv6 GNU autoconf flag.
I've filed a bug at http://bugs.bacula.org/ Mantis. Although this is
not actually a Bacula Code Bug, this is an excellent opportunity to
improve and feed-back more aggressive ipv6 test macros to the
GNUAutoconf people (who really don't have a bug management system)
TIA,
~BAS

[not sure if this is a user-@ or devel-@ topic -- the last/only ipv6
discussion I saw was to -users, so when you respond, please choose the
appropriate]
All:
The GNU autoconf macro below is what we use to test for IPv6 in 1.38.10.
It tries simply to instantiate a number of ipv6 structures.
However, on my platform (NetBSD/sparc 3_STABLE), it seems that it's
possible to confuse or mitigate/bypass this test ( I haven't tested
OpenBSD/FreeBSD for his behavior yet, because I know NetBSD does some
special IPV4 to IPV6 address mapping, and has some special IPV6
sysctls).
The IPV6 netinet6 socket family includes can be in
/usr/include/netinet6 , configure will find them, compile conftest.c
just fine, and pass this test, however the system can be built without
IPV6 support (removed from all of the userland binaries) and the Kernel.
The result is that Bacula compiles and links against IPV6 headers fine,
but when it runs, it fails to compile later on during the build:

*** Error code 1
The work around is to interrupt the build process and manually define
HAVE_INET6 0 in src/config.h in the mean time.
So what we may need to do is:
A) A more-aggressive ipv6 support test.
B) A --without-ipv6 or --disable-ipv6 argument that explicity defines
HAVE_IPV6 0
C) Or I may need to put a work-around in place for NetBSD (Bad)
The way some packages do it (Zebra) is:
# Check whether --enable-ipv6 or --disable-ipv6 was given.
if test ${enable_ipv6+set} = set; then
enableval=$enable_ipv6

It could be the ideal system for the job with features like enhanced crypto acceleration via crypto(9) and the existing improvements on scsi(4) and recent HBA support.

Russel: You'll probably notice that Bacula builds perfectly fine up until it gets to the director, then you get into OS-specific kernel knits and hooks where either OpenBSD lacks the framework/API (pthreads, st(4), etc.) or kernel-specific code needs to be added to Bacula.

Attached is a basic diff(1) that explains log rotation techniques to
that effect.
The problem organizationally is that one can get lost in details in the
Getting Started section; where as this much info about log rotation
technique (e.g., platform-specific notes) may belong elsewhere in the
doc.
Also not sure, as a general policy, how you want to deal with platform
specific config examples. It seems TeX only has one-level of
subsection; I guess I'm spoiled by DocBook with its sect[0-9]
hierological organization.
We explicitly should mention that the log file's descriptor is only open
when being written to. No SIGHUP is needed to close and reopen it as a
new file after the existing one is renamed/compressed.
Right, and that a SIGHUP to the bacula-dir will interrupt running jobs.
Noted here!
The race condition that exists here is no different than any other
system. Also, I don't see any examples of creating local[0-9] syslog(3)
facilities. Certainly an example Messages {} stanza that transmits
to syslogd(8) is in order. Using syslog(3) mitigates this whole
problem.
I get into this here.
I'm curious why the facility can't be controlled. Work-around
documented.
The FreeBSD port maintainer might want to add a newsyslog.conf(5)
example to the bacula-server/files/pkg-message.in:
Attached is a diff to pkg-message.in for Dan Langille.
However, without ports/sysutils/syslog-ng, it's kind of a moot point.
A table/chart in the User or Developer documentation that outlines how
common POSIX signals are handled would be very helpful as well. At
least the common ones in signal(3):
I didn't have a chance to get into this, but I still think it's a great
idea to have. Put in the manual right after the Job Status Code
reference table :}
That's what I meant. Although I'm still a bit concerned. What happens
if the log file is rotated while a job is in progress? Will bacula attempt
to
append to the end of (the now compressed) previously opened file descriptor?
Or will it reconnect to the new file with the correct filename.
Right, in this case, if the is open by bacula-dir and the file is moved
on the same file system, the descriptor / inode stay the same. If the
file is moved off of the file system, a new inode is made.
Messages written to the old file inode during the move operation are
lost.
However, if the file is compressed at rotation-time, all data being
appended by bacula-dir to that still-open() file after the start of the
gzip(1)/bzip(2) read() operation would go into a black hole and be
lost.
The resulting compressed data is a new file, so ignore whatever I was
thinking when I wrote that.
The appended data during the read() by the compression utility is lost
is the point I'm trying to make.
The advantage of syslog(3) is that it can queue messages on SIGHUP.
Also, the way newsyslog(8) works, the file presently open is simply
renamed/moved to $!.0, SIGHUP is sent, all queued messages enter a newly
created file in place. No messages are ever lost.
No, that is what Windows probably does. On Unix/Linux systems, Bacula
continues writing to the old file and when Bacula releases the file, it
is
deleted. Thus you lose the last part of what Bacula is writing if you
delete it out from under Bacula.

I have just completed significant modifications to the Volume reservation code in the Storage daemon (now in the SVN). There will undoubtedly be some fine tuning before it ships. However, I suspect that the code now makes recursive mutex calls, which work perfectly well on Linux, but they cause a failure on FreeBSD (this is permitted by the standard), which means that it is quite possible that the current SVN code will fail on FreeBSD. For Solaris, I am unsure. This email is a *BIG* urgent warning that unless the Bacula Solaris and FreeBSD users pull together and organize regression testing, you may find that version 2.2.x will not work on your platform, and it may be difficult to correct problems after production release in a timely fashion since once released, it is not possible to make any significant changes to mutex usage without destabilizing the code. Now is the time to test and bring any problems to my attention. I am ready to help you get the regression tests working and to fix mutex usage so that it works on your platform during the current development cycle.

The reason my logging configurations were acting sporadically is because
there is no call ever to a Jmsg() with 'type' M_SAVED as defined in

Presumably it belongs in save_file() somewhere. I'll play around with
it.

[Bacula-users] FileSets in Restore jobs to populate path list?
Is there any way to populate the file list for a restore job using a
FileList definition? Such that, when one initiates a restore operation,
they merely feed:
-) Select Restore Job Template Definition
|--- Bootstrap
|--- FileSet
|--- Where
|--- Prefix/Suffix
|--- Regex
|--- Replace
\--- Priority
-) Enter Original Client FD
| Storage
| Catalog
\ JobIDs and BSR populated here like restore option #5
-) Enter Optional alternate destination FD
-
The work around seems to be (procedurally):
-) restore client=[Original_Client_FD_Name] fileset=[FileSetName]
- #5
-) @ /path/to/list/of/recover/commands
$ @ /tmp/recover.list
cd /etc
cwd is: /etc/
$ mark fstab
1 file marked.
cwd is: /usr/local/etc/
$ mark bacula-fd.conf
1 file marked.
-) Select Restore Job Template
-) Modify job to specify optional alternate destination client
restore restore client name.
Essentially I'm looking for any way to automate the process. Human
intervention at the bconsole at 3 AM can be dangerous.
Also, the pre-meditated restore file list is easier to maintain in
FileSets{} definition than a text file.
Thoughts?
~BAS
P.S. Why doesn't recover's interactive shell permit for specifying
absolute path names?

Re: [Bacula-users] FTP Sync
You can use the bacula-fd on the windows client and setup the bufallo external storage as an NFS mount on your bacula-DIR/bacuala-SD system. You cannot bacula-sd directly to the Buffalo NAS, unless you hack it, which may not be a bad idea if its running Linux. Best to just tear the drive out of it and mount it locally. Or have a direct cross-over between the SD machine and the Terrastation ~BAS On Fri, 2007-06-01 at 14:14 -0400, ashok shah wrote: I have tried other FTP sync softwares.. and Pulling Data from the server runs at 11.6MB/sec (via gigabit LAN on the same SWITCH), the connection times out frequently, but it works.. -- Brian A.

Brian, a status on the client showed that it never went down, i restarted it manually with the flags you indicated and nothing more verbose came through. Like Frank i'm also not convinced it's networking, this box and the server do have firewalls, but they pass bacula traffic without issues. All of the daemons involved are 2.03, i'm not using any 2.1.x bacula on this client. Windows event viewer didn't tell me anything, i saw two errors around the time in question, but i had a user on the box unbenounced to me playing an online game, error came from one of the dlls it used. My first speculation is that error that snafu whatever corrupted the vss snapshot, is this possible or how could i confirm this? The other thing that it might be although i doubt this as well is a conflict between running jobs. The job in question started at 4:35, and died at 5:47. I had another job, backing up to another disk volume totally separate, kick off two minutes before the failure at 5:45. That client was a Unix not windows box. It worked fine, but i don't like not knowing the why, i suspect i will see more of this from this client. Thanks. Dave. - Original Message - From: Brian A.

[Bacula-users] Bacula Web - Trac all jobs in a schedule?
B-W feature question: Could we write a query that examines overall pool volume write capacity? It would be nice to track historical bytes written by a select set of jobs (normally started by a single schedule entry). I don't think that a data structure exists in the database that links jobs to a schedule, though We could maybe examine pool/volume tables instead, but then we wouldn't be able to differentiate which jobs were hogging space on a volume. -- Brian A.

[Bacula-users] FreeBSD, Bacula, and a Dell Autochanger 122T SCSI Timeouts
FWD'd on behalf of a co-worker who is stuck in some limbo dimension caused by the SF.net mailman farm. From: Steve Polyack [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: FreeBSD, Bacula, and a Dell Autochanger Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2008 15:23:39 -0500 We've been using Bacula with FreeBSD with a Dell Autochanger (PV-122T) for some time now. Within the last few months we've seen the interface to the tape changer crash, causing the devices /dev/ch0 and /dev/nsa0 to disappear. Re-scanning the SCSI bus with camcontrol(8) brings the devices back just fine. Physical problems with the changer have been ruled out by replacing it (twice!). We've also added a good bit of debugging to chio-changer.sh (Bacula's freebsd interface to the changer) to get a better look at the problem. Anyways. we've witnessed the crash while the changer was unloading a tape. After rescanning the bus and checking the device with chio(1) we can see that the tape unload occurred successfully. This has led us to believe that FreeBSD is not giving the device enough time to complete its operations ((ch0:ahc0:0:5:0): SCB 0x2 - timed out), and is giving up after timing out. For example: static const u_int32_t CH_TIMEOUT_EXCHANGE_MEDIUM = 10; ... does not seem to be adequate, as we've seen the device take upwards of two minutes to exchange a tape! We've doubled most of the timeouts in /usr/src/sys/cam/scsi/scsi_ch.c and the problem has yet to reoccur. Has anyone else ever had an issue similar to this? Is there a better solution, or a more likely problem that we are potentially missing? Perhaps a sysctl knob would be appropriate instead of static inline values? -- Brian A.

[Bacula-users] cryptographic hardware accelerator offload
Has anyone tried one? Any noticeable performance improvements for
AES-256 operations?
I guess the bigger question is whether Bacula will call in methods of
OpenSSL engine(3).
E.g., Apache mod_ssl needs to have an Engine type explicitly defined in
the config:
See:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslcryptodevice
Also see:
ssl_engine_config.c in httpd-2.2.11/modules/ssl in Apache
We don't appear to be calling engine(3) API at all:
..work/bacula-2.4.4$ grep -ir engine src/lib/*{crypt,ssl}*
..work/bacula-2.4.4$
I'm assuming that each OpenSSL linked userland application must
explicitly define engine(3) calls to take advantage of HW Crypto
Accel/Offload then (compared to kernel services such as geom(4)/geli(8)
and ipsec(4) on FreeBSD can rely on the kernel OpenCrypto(9)
transparently) ?
