Re: [Bacula-users] Restore not using correct Files.

2012-01-17 Thread ewan.brown
Craig, I suspect this is because the media type for both your Incremental and Differential pools is "File" so bacula assumes that it can access Incr0169 via the /backup/Differential device. I got round this by having different media types for my different file devices, e.g. FileFull, FileDiff

[Bacula-users] Priority of Copy jobs

2011-05-24 Thread ewan.brown
I have a two stage backup, to disk first then to tape using copy jobs. On the whole this works fine, but occasionally (e.g. when the tape hasn't been changed) a copy job is still running when the next round of disk backups start. When this happens, the disk backups don't start because they are

For what it's worth, I have a similar amount of data and settled on a "Maximum Volume Bytes" of 200G which has been working without any issues for a few months now. Cheers, Ewan > -Original Message- > From: Mike Seda [mailto:mas...@stanford.edu] > Sent: 20 May 2011 18:49 > To: Bacula U

I have a client that has three separate jobs which go to the same storage daemon so it isn't an inherent limit. Cheers, Ewan > -Original Message- > From: Jacek Bilski [mailto:jacek.bil...@avalcom.pl] > Sent: 18 April 2011 11:49 > To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Bacula

Within bconsole you can use "status client=myserver-fd" to get most of this information (where myserver-fd is the name of the file daemon involved in the backup). Cheers, Ewan > -Original Message- > From: Hugo Letemplier [mailto:hugo.let...@gmail.com] > Sent: 11 April 2011 15:37 > To:

Re: [Bacula-users] How do I know if a job is actually part of a Copy procedure?

I believe that's normal behaviour for copy jobs. Cheers, Ewan > -Original Message- > From: Gergely Polonkai [mailto:pol...@w00d5t0ck.info] > Sent: 08 April 2011 17:04 > To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [Bacula-users] How do I know if a job is actually part of a > Copy pr

Re: [Bacula-users] Priority question

2011-04-06 Thread ewan.brown
You are right that no priority 10 jobs will get run while there are higher priority (lower number) jobs running. To run jobs in parallel they need to be the same priority. However, to some extent you can control the order using scheduling. Kick off the important jobs on the hour and the less

Re: [Bacula-users] authorization again

2011-03-04 Thread ewan.brown
The Windows file daemon doesn't use the C:\$WORKSTATION-fd.conf file. That's just put there as a convenience at install time. You should really be comparing the server password with the one in the Bacula program directory (e.g. C:\program files\bacula\bacula-fd.conf). EMB > -Original Mes

Maybe you could achieve something similar using include files for the common options. EMB > -Original Message- > From: Alan Brown [mailto:a...@mssl.ucl.ac.uk] > Sent: 25 February 2011 19:56 > To: James Woodward > Cc: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Jobdef
