[Bacula-users] I can't use as storage a DVD
Hi (newbie in Bacula 1.38.11). All works fine if storage is FileStorage but when I want to use DVD as storage don't works. (I tested the dvd+rw-tools 6.1 patched and works fine)First I run a job and then shows this error: *run A job name must be specified. The defined Job resources are: 1: Client1 2: BackupCatalog 3: RestoreFiles Select Job resource (1-3): 1 Run Backup job JobName: Client1 FileSet: Full Set Level:Incremental Client: devel-server-fd Storage: DVD Pool: Default When: 2006-08-10 11:30:14 Priority: 10 OK to run?

Do you know why those indicies aren't enabled by default? What's the overhead (CPU and disk space) needed to generate and maintain the indicies? Because they're seldom needed. Does having the indicies speed up other bacula operations? Not as far as I can tell - and there's a slight performance penalty associated with inserts because of them. Restores seem a bit faster but that's about it. Are there any other hints you can offer regarding database tuning (particularly with mysql 5.0.22)? No, but there's plenty of archived discussion on the issue. As far as I know, noone's really studied Bacula database/query optimisation. It isn't so important on small backups, but it would make a big difference on backups and restore of multi-million file filesystems. The hard part is keeping such optimisations portable.

[Bacula-users] High Availability Bacula - Multiple Catalogues - Pros/Cons?
All, Having had my first database corruption with Bacula, which I don't feel too bad about after 11 months on a medium sized site (compared to Veritas!) I have now discovered dbcheck and its limitations. I understand that dbcheck on a big database with millons and millions or rows like mine is going to take a long time. However, having the database locked for days on end is not really workable. So I thought I would start a discussion on possible workaround methods: 1. Per Client/Job Catalogues Clearly this would be quite inefficient but I can deal with suspending the backups of a single system or single job for a while. Also the dbcheck should be much quicker since it operates on a much smaller number of files. In my case I have a MySQL server dedicated to being a Bacula catalogue server and it has plenty of disc space so this might be a serious option for me, if not in general. Other than increasing the complexity of the installation somewhat and placing more work on the MySQL server, would there be other issues with this sort of setup? 2. Replicated MySQL Catalogue Server With a replicated server I could dbcheck against the slave while suspending the replication. Of course the master and slave would then be increasingly out of sync and I would still need to shutdown the master to fix problems encountered. Other ideas? comments?

Since I'm testing backup to tape on a test environment (I was already doing backups to disk for a while), I've canceled the job, deleted the volumes on bacula, initialized tapes(rewind, weof...) and now I'll do the same tests again: first without using a recycled tape, and then use a recycled one. By the way, I've run a job without adding the volumes to the pool. So, job status is waiting for an appendable volume. I've added the tapes to the pool and I think bacula will wake up and search again for an appendable volume (and this time it will find one). Is there any way to force the job to retry estead of wainting for it to wake up and retry itself ? Once again, thank you for your help.

I'm going to dump and archive the catalogue in its broken state and then start with a fresh one unless anyone has any great ideas? I'm open to all suggestions - but obviously I need to get the backup system back online ASAP. On an unmodified Bacula system, dbcheck can run for days. And it locks the database so no backups or restores can be done until it finishes. Look in the archives for this list about adding indexes. There are two or three indexes that can be added. These additions cut the runtime for over two days on my SOHO system with 5 computers to a few minutes. Hmm. I've renamed the Bacula database on the MySQL server so I can try and fix what I have in there already. I can't wait for several days downtime on a critical service like this though. I'll try adding the indexes and hopefully that will increase performance. This installation is for about 70 desktops, laptops and servers. Database is about 1.5GB. Thanks very much all who responded.

[Bacula-users] encrypting files?
I have a possible situation at work where one user (I'll not go into the details) needs to have all files from that workstation encrypted before they get on the network and on tape. Has there been a discussion, plan, or option I've overlooked such that the bacula-fd.conf can contain a passphrase for each file and when the files are read for sending to the director and sd the files are encrypted and when files are sent from the sd they are decrypted. What I'm thinking is the fd is the gateway to everything else in bacula and that when a file goes out through the fd the file is encrypted and when the file comes in through fd to the workstation fd decrypts the file. The user on the workstation always sees unencrypted files, regular data as if nothing is different. Anybody sniffing on the network or finding a random tape is able to see the files, but since the files are encrypted the files and tape and anything on the network is useless. If not discussed previously I'd like to see a parameter for what encryption program to use (pgp, gpg, enigma, etc) and a parameter for either a pass phrase, chat script, or something similiar to be given. Maybe the program needs two parameters, one for encryption and one for decryption. Thoughts? Mike - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

I believe it is the bscan utility that can do that. -Jason Martin -- Both of his feet are firmly planted in the air.

[Bacula-users] change request
Testing bacula today (intending to go to production next week) on my backup server that has about 200G of data to backup as a full, when I execute 'status dir' in bconsole the large number of files and cumulative file sizes causes the report to shift sideways a few characters (not lining up) for that job. Do I enter a request in this email list or through sf.net for that to be corrected. It is a minor, cosemetic issue. Mike - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

[Bacula-users] bacula-web mysql bd error: not found
Hi all, I have installed Bacula-web 1.1 and bacula-mysql-1.38.11-3.fc5.i386.rpm on MySql 5.0.18-2.1 rpm. The index.php is giving the error DB error: not found. The results on the test.php are all good. As descibed at http://www.bacula.org/bacula-web/index.html i have to login in mysql from the command line with the credentials that are givven in the configs/bacula.conf. This results in the following line: mysql -h localhost -u bacula -p bacula With this I can login to the bacula database so I think this isnt the problem. But what else can be not found the apache error_log is always saying the same: [Fri Aug 11 23:58:08 2006] [error] [client 155.3.6.68] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant hostspec - assumed 'hostspec' in /home/apache/vhost/bacula.netforce-is.nl/classes.inc on line 44 [Fri Aug 11 23:58:08 2006] [error] [client 155.3.6.68] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant username - assumed 'username' in /home/apache/vhost/bacula.netforce-is.nl/classes.inc on line 45 [Fri Aug 11 23:58:08 2006] [error] [client 155.3.6.68] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant password - assumed 'password' in /home/apache/vhost/bacula.netforce-is.nl/classes.inc on line 46 [Fri Aug 11 23:58:08 2006] [error] [client 155.3.6.68] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant database - assumed 'database' in /home/apache/vhost/bacula.netforce-is.nl/classes.inc on line 47 [Fri Aug 11 23:58:08 2006] [error] [client 155.3.6.68] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant phptype - assumed 'phptype' in /home/apache/vhost/bacula.netforce-is.nl/classes.inc on line 48 [Fri Aug 11 23:58:08 2006] [error] [client 155.3.6.68] PHP Notice: Only variable references should be returned by reference in /home/apache/vhost/bacula.netforce-is.nl/external_packages/smarty/Config_File.class.php on line 126 But this are just notices and it should be working fine wehn im reading other php and bacula-web websites. Does anyone have an idea??

Re: [Bacula-users] encrypting files?

Has there been a discussion, plan, or option I've overlooked such that the bacula-fd.conf can contain a passphrase for each file and when the files are read for sending to the director and sd the files are encrypted and when files are sent from the sd they are decrypted. What I'm thinking is the fd is the gateway to everything else in bacula and that when a file goes out through the fd the file is encrypted and when the file comes in through fd to the workstation fd decrypts the file. The user on the workstation always sees unencrypted files, regular data as if nothing is different. Anybody sniffing on the network or finding a random tape is able to see the files, but since the files are encrypted the files and tape and anything on the network is useless. If not discussed previously I'd like to see a parameter for what encryption program to use (pgp, gpg, enigma, etc) and a parameter for either a pass phrase, chat script, or something similiar to be given. Maybe the program needs two parameters, one for encryption and one for decryption. This functionality is available in the 1.39 betas; I have some documentation on my web site: http://landonf.bikemonkey.org/code/bacula/ Configuring_Bacula_Encryption.20060305184424.26351.sandbox.html The encryption is implemented in Bacula, using OpenSSL. Instead of simple symmetric encryption, asymmetric encryption is used to encrypt the session keys. This allows you to maintain a master keypair for said user's encrypted data, and retain the ability to restore their data should their encryption keypair be lost. There is still one major gotcha, namely, it's possible for the director to restore new keys or a bacula configuration file to the client, and thus force later backups to be made with a compromised key and/or with no encryption at all. There has been some discussion on the list regarding solutions to this problem, including limiting where the director can send a restoration job on the file daemon. -landonf PGP.sig Description: This is a digitally signed message part - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
