[Bacula-users] How to back up Exchange public folders

Hello List, we are backing up our MS Exchange-Server by first exporting the mailboxes to file with Microsoft's exmerge-utility and than backing up those files with bacula. This is actually quite straight forward and can be set up in minutes. One major problem however is that exmerge cannot export

[Bacula-users] 2.4.4 EL5 rpms

Hello List, did anyone build EL5-compatible rpms of bacula 2.4.4 so far and might want to share? I would like to upgrade our 2.4.1 installation on CentOS 5.2, the EL5 rpms provided by fschwarz unsually installed very well but they are only available for 2.4.2. Thanks! Nils

[Bacula-users] Can bacula recognise newly added volumes while waiting for another volume?

Hello everyone! Please excuse the crappy topic, I couldn't think of a better one... Bacula just asked me to load a specific volume or lable a new one. This is totally ok as none of the available volumes has exceeded the retention period. In order to give bacula an appendable volume, I manually

Re: [Bacula-users] bacula on centos 5.2

Hi! The EL5 rpms created by fschwarz do indeed install fine on CentOS 5.2. Unfortunately the are only version 2.4.2. As to your dying director, I would suggest running it with debugging enabled (-d 99). The ouput produced by the debug option will help you narrow down the problem. It might

[Bacula-users] Numbering Volumes

Hello list! As DVD-burning seems to be broken right now I am backing up to 1GB-harddisk volumes which I'll burn to DVD manually. Is there a way to make bacula label the harddisk-volumes like this DVD-Volume-7.12.2008-n where n ist the current number of the volume used for this day's backup?

Re: [Bacula-users] bacula hang waiting for storage

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that I came across the exact same error Error writing final EOF to tape. This Volume may not be readable. a couple of times with 2.4.2 using a Quantum DLT VS1 drive connected to Adaptec 29160LP. I don't think that the tape is really defective as bacula states. I

Re: [Bacula-users] DVD Backup Version 2.0.2 OK?

guarantee that they all apply to 2.4.x because I'm still using 2.2.x and haven't been tracking development that closely for well over a year. That said I did have DVD writing working and many of the errors that you report do look familiar. On Sat, 2008-11-29 at 20:26 +0100, Nils Blanck-Wehde wrote

Re: [Bacula-users] DVD backup problems gone!

Hello everyone, I am trying hard to get DVD backups working as well. I posted about this to the list last week (topic: ERR=Could not mount DVD device), unfortunately with no reply so far. It looks like backing up to DVD isn't a very common thing around here... If anyone actually did manage

Re: [Bacula-users] DVD Backup Version 2.0.2 OK?

Hi John, hi everyone! I think I am getting closer to get DVD-burning to work. I would really love to use this feature and I would be glad to help fix it. I just checked, I had dvd+rw-tools-7.0-0.el5.3.rpm installed. As this is is 7.04 I uninstalled the rpm and compiled / installed from this

Hello list! I am running bacula 2.4.2 from fschwarz's EL5 rpms on CentOS 5.2 I am having a hard time getting bacula to write backups to DVD. I have narrowed it down to the following: After burning a part to DVD, bacula mounts the volume to determine the used space and pass the result to

Re: [Bacula-users] ERR=Could not mount DVD device

Hello again! Maybe I should add that the first part indeed gets written to the dvd. So there IS something on the DVD, it's readable and look quite ok (bacula header then tar-ish concatenation of files) Thanks for any help! Nils Nils Blanck-Wehde schrieb: Hello list! I am running bacula

[Bacula-users] Organising your config-files

Hello everyone, after a while my bacula-configuration files tend to get a little messed up. I was wondering whether anyone tried to split especially the director config-file into seperate files for shedules, filesets, clients and a general part. Is there some kind of include-statement (besides

Hi everyone! I'm setting up a new bacula installation on CentOS 5.2. I planned on using the FSchwarz EL5 rpms because the install very well under CentOS 5.2 Now I am wondering whether it's worth the hassle to compile 2.5.16 from source. Unforunately I am not a programmer so the changelog of

Hello Everyone! This is my first post and I am trying not to ask something stupid. But nevertheless please be patient :-) I am working on a backup-concept for smaller (5-15 head) companies. I have successfully set up a low-power mini-ITX appliance running CentOS 5 and Bacula 2.2.6 As I still
