Hi all,
I have a problem with bacula and some SLR tapes. My server has an TANDBERG
SLR100 SCSI tape drive, which is capable of storing 50GB or 100GB
(compressed) onto SLR tapes.
I have about 50GB+ data to save, so I want to use tape drive compression.
First, I used an old tape to store those

Hi there,
yesterday I read about the nice point-in-time-recovery (PITR) feature
of postgresql - and decided to use this in future.
(See: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/interactive/backup-online.html)
PITR gives you the ability to have really continuous backup of your
postgresql-database.

The other day I had to restore a few directories. I fired up bconsole,
and started the restore command. I was not able to get bconsole to
recognize the 'æøå' characters and was therefore not able to mark the
directories in question. To get the job done i
Sorry guys if this is a dumb newbee question.
I'm just getting my bacula set up for the first time, and I have an
autochanger with 6 tapes per cartridge attached to a linux box.
I made my .conf files, and ran btape on it and everything including the
autochanger operation checked out fine.
Hi.
I'm new to the list, and saw the mail from Craig Holyoak in the list archive.
I did a misstake by reading the developer manual when using Bacula 1.36.2
so I created a Scratch pool, and a script to move purged tapes to that pool
PoolId 7 in my case.

Hi,
I've just started using Bacula, and I'm having several issues. The
pressing one right now is, I just went to a customer site, and used
wx-console to show them how to do a restore. I set her to the operator
email address, and she got an email to insert the Wednesday-2 tape. We
did that,
I have 10 systems to be backed up evenly
divided into linux and windows boxes (5 5). I want to maintain two
pools one for each type and have separate volume for each job. So Pool-A
will have vol-001, vol-002 and so on for the 5 linux machines and similarly
for the windows machine pool. Each pool
Arno,
These customers are not the most technically feasible people, and I balk
at them actually using a console program to do restores. They were
previously using a graphical Arcserve program under Netware. I really
don't want to make them open up another wx-console and type mount, but

Can you try the job with bacula gzip compression
set
on with both new and old?
I never tried it with SW compression on the tape
drive, because bacula
howto says you shouldn't use that when writing to a
tape drive.
Should I use it

I am using bacula 1.37.30 on a Solaris 9 system with a mysql db backend.

Interesting. I thought these commands were synonymous...
Here I can access a tape drive after unmount, too. Did your drive

We can't say. It depends on how debugging goes, how much time we
