If you don't need the GUI front-end you only have to upgrade a few, if any, additional packages. Be aware that the packages later than 1.38.8 use sqlite3 instead of sqlite2 as default which is horribly slow. Regards, Marco - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

[Bacula-users] Quick question about requested tape
Hello. When adding a new tape to the pool, bacula ask me in with slot the new tape is.(I'm using an autocharger) When launching a restore job, bacula asks me for a specific tape so it can perform the restore. My question is: do i need do insert the requested tape on the original slot(specified when the tape was added to the pool), or can I insert the tape in any slot (bacula should search for it) or insert it on the drive? What then? Will issuing a mount command be sufficient for bacula to continue the job?

[Bacula-users] Bacula Heavily Duplicating Data
Hi,
I've setup a bacula instance for one of our customers for 20+ clients
but we have a problem. We have a Fedora system that is using 41gb in the
/ directory. When we run an estimate against the system it comes back
with 86gb's. When we try to run the backup it tries to actually backup
this much data.
Is bacula doing something unusual with symlinks as I'm at somewhat of a
loss to account for how we can be duplicating the data so badly.
If anyone could let me know if there's a setting I need to use (sparse
files?) as I can't see anything obvious in the docs for this.
Fileset below (I've explicitly stated the directories);
FileSet {
Name = Full Set

[Bacula-users] Bacula-dir and remote Postgres
Hello,
after discovering that Postgres is too slow on Sun 280R machines for
Bacula management, I decided to test one of them and have the Postgres
DB run on another faster Solaris machine on the LAN.
So I prepared the new DB from scratch, modified my original bacula-dir.conf to connect to the new DB host :
Catalog {
Name = MyCatalog
dbname = bacula;
user = bacula;
password = "bacula"
DB Address = myhost.mydomain.com
DB Port = 5432
}
Now I see the Director starts on the new DB (the old one is down), but...
if I run bconsole as before on the Director's machine, any command hangs for a while and then says:
Could not open database "bacula".
postgresql.c:168 Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server.
Database=bacula User=bacula
It is probably not running or your password is incorrect.
I am absolutely sure that Director connects to the DB, because debug is enabled, and I can see the Director is ok at startup.
Infact, if I shutdown the remote DB, Directors complains and does not start up.
...what is my problem?!?
Thanx
Gabriele.

Are you sure you're only running 1 director? Are you sure bconsole is
configured to connect to the director that's able to talk to the database?

Based on your narrative, I was confused as to where the director is now
running -- is it on the database machine or the 280R?

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula-dir and remote Postgres
The original setup was one Sun280R machine running all the daemons and postgres.
This machine is responsible for backups.
Because the DB is too slow, and slow down the overall backup
performance (from 10K it slows down to 1K...), I wanted to move
Postgres.
So now, all bacula daemons are still running on Sun280R, and here I'm also running bconsole.
I only changed the configuration to connect to the new DB on the other host.
And actually the Director is connecting correctly.
Probably, the scheduling will run.
But I need to add volumes and run a job by hand now, to check performance, and bconsole is giving problems.
When I run bconsole, it correctly connects to the Director, and its
prompt is there ready to accept commands. But any command comes out
with that error.

You have probably explicitly specified directories that are included in / and
are not mounted file systems. In that case, you are duplicating the data.
The FileSet part of the manual in the Director configuration chapter explains
this. In short, if you do a df command, your FileSet should include at a
*maximum* the names that appear in the list Mounted On otherwise you are
probably duplicating data. Obviously, if filesystems such as /tmp are
mounted, you will not want to back them up.

Actually the problem would be in files' paths - if a snapshot is mounted to
some other directory, the files' path would differ and thus all the files
would get backed up.
It seems to me that there's a few ways to resolve this issue - to implement
some transparent snapshot function, or to chroot all files
to /mnt/snapshots/usr-%j.
Any thoughts?

Hello,
after discovering that Postgres is too slow on Sun 280R machines forBacula
management, I decided to test one of them and have the PostgresDB run on
another faster Solaris machine on the LAN.
So I prepared the new DB from scratch, modified my original bacula-dir.conf
to connect to the new DB host :
Catalog {
Name = MyCatalog
dbname = bacula;
user = bacula;
password = bacula
DB Address = myhost.mydomain.com
DB Port = 5432
}
Now I see the Director starts on the new DB (the old one is down), but...
I just moved my DB to another server to test this.
if I run bconsole as before on the Director's machine, any command hangs
for a while and then says:
Could not open database bacula.
postgresql.c:168 Unable to connect to PostgreSQL server.
Database=bacula User=bacula
It is probably not running or your password is incorrect.
I do not get this error.
I am absolutely sure that Director connects to the DB, because debug
is enabled, and I can see the Director is ok at startup. Infact, if I
shutdown the remote DB, Directors complains and does not start up.
...what is my problem?!?
Have you tried starting bconsole with -d?

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula Heavily Duplicating Data
Fileset below (I've explicitly stated the directories); You have probably explicitly specified directories that are included in / and are not mounted file systems. In that case, you are duplicating the data. The FileSet part of the manual in the Director configuration chapter explains this. In short, if you do a df command, your FileSet should include at a *maximum* the names that appear in the list Mounted On otherwise you are probably duplicating data. Obviously, if filesystems such as /tmp are mounted, you will not want to back them up. That is what's happening then. Thanks Kern. I'll amend my fileset now and see what happens.

Yes, providing you are not running multiple simultaneous jobs that do the
substitution.
1. Use a RunBeforeJob with the jobid edited on the command of a script you
call. E.g.
RunBeforeJob = /mnt/snapshots/setup-filelist %j
2. The script will setup a file list in a fixed place --
say /mnt/snapshots/filelist.
3. Your FileSet File command will look something like:
File = /mnt/snapshots/filelist

[Bacula-users] Volume confusion
Hi all. I've been using Bacula for a little over a year now, and I
still don't understand something. Here's a snip of parts from my
config:
Pool {
Name = Server1
Use Volume Once = yes
Pool Type = Backup
LabelFormat = Server1
AutoPrune = yes
VolumeRetention = 8d
Maximum Volumes = 9
Recycle = yes
}
Storage {
Name = Server1
Address = x.x.x.x
SDPort = 9103
Password =
Device = Server1
Media Type = File
}
I wanted each file to be used only once so I can delete one backup if
I needed space in a pinch. I thought that one backup would take one
volume, but this isn't the case. I've got several backups for various
clients that take multiple volumes. Why is this? Is there anyway to
predict this or prevent this from happening?
Thanks!

[Bacula-users] Rescue cd create/make problem
First, thanks to so many who have contributed to creating a robust and elegant backup solution. It is the only one I could find that has enterprise-class features, and backs up all my OS's (Win, Lin, OS X). rh: es4 2.6.9.42.0.2.el rescue: 1.8.6 bacula: 1.38.11 both sources located under /root My task is to prove the restore process. I'm trying to use the boot cd. If I should switch to something else that is better, please point me in the right direction. My windows restore process went very well, no hitches. I'm working on my Linux servers, and OS X is next. I've run through the process a couple of times and assume some error on my part is the cause of the problem. I've tried it with and without bacula-fd ./configured as static. In my first attempt I compiled non-static: 1. start-network failed because the mask was 255.0.0.0 on a 192.168 network, and no gateway. 2. there was no bacula-fd.conf anywhere after booting. To determine this, from / I ran ls -Rl|grep bacula-fd. 3. hard drive partition didn't in that the last partition created exceeded the available space on the disk. I recompiled the fd from /root/bacula-1.38.11/ with: ./configure --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --enable-static-fd -- enable-client-only make all created an image that used the bacula-fd.conf from the bacula-1.38.11/src folder, instead of the one from /etc/bacula. Booting this cd and running start-network again set a network config with the wrong mask, and no gateway. So, before I spend another few days trying to patch this, can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? TIA, Don. - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Re: [Bacula-users] WOW
hello, I think its safe to say that there is no canned solution to make Bacula talk directly to Zabbix you'd need to write something to do it. There are many posts in the archives here that lists ways to monitor nagios, some lets nagios email the central monitoring, some puts down files on a webserver with success/fail statuses and some query the MySQL database of the Bacula director, any of these will work with Zabbix but you'll need to script something to make the two work and I suspect that is dependant on your local Zabbix installtion etc. On 11/09/06, Janco van der Merwe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes but now you have to have a 3rd party app and requires subscription but Vodacom still has the e-mail to SMS but that is limited to 6 a day which will work but we are currently using the MTN network with our Zabbix which is on another machine and I hoped that there was a possibility that I could some how configure Bacula to use Zabbix which will solve this but I mean this is not a necessary thing just a nice to have, at least when jobs fail I have prior notice so that when my boss corners me I at least know and give him that all wonderful IT answer of I know and I'm busy working on it Janco v.d Merwe Network Administrator Dunns Stores (PTY) Ltd Switchboard: 011 541 3000 Direct: 011 541 3007 Fax: 086 632 1708 -Original Message- From: Alan Brown [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 September, 2006 11:42 To: Matt Cowger Cc: Janco van der Merwe;Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] WOW On Sat, 9 Sep 2006, Matt Cowger wrote: My apologies - your email address was .co.za, so i assumed Zaire. .za = south africa Didn't realize your SMSs were so limited - indeed a script to attach to a GSM phone might be your best route, but I can't give you any guidance on that :(.

[Bacula-users] FW: Autoloader: Replace tape in magazine after backups complete?
Actually, as a result of my testing last week with umount, my weekend backups didn't run; umount only logically unmounted the tape, and then Bacula sat there waiting for someone to manually (logically) remount the tape. And the manual actually says: If you have an autoloader, the mount command will not cause Bacula to operate the autoloader. Which is, I guess, what I need. Bacula is operating the autoloader for the actual backup, it just keeps the tape in the drive when the backup is finished. It looks like it's calling a program, mtx-changer, to do the actual magic, so I'm going to experiment with that once my weekend backups have completed. --Jeremy -Original Message- From: Ryan Novosielski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 11, 2006 10:21 To: Jeremy Koppel Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Autoloader: Replace tape in magazine after backups complete? Those aren't commands. Commands are those that appear in the list when one types help. Try 'umount' and see what the next step in the script should be.

Re: [Bacula-users] Backing Up Microsoft Exchange
Yes, Bacula can easily back up an Exchange Information Store, but only if the hard part is already done. You should 1) Back up the Information Store to disk using ntbackup; 2) Back up the .BKF file ntbackup just created to tape using Bacula. Yes, I know it takes twice as much time and storage. I don't know if you have the time, but I know you have the (110% percent * IS size) required free disk space to do those monthly defrags (Don't have? You should! http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328804/), so it shouldn't be an issue. Other backup solutions (CA's ArcServe, Symantec's NetBackup) can backup Exchange on the fly because they have application-specific agents that leverage the APIs Microsoft makes available. The same goes for other applications: SQL Server, Oracle, etc. As of today, Bacula does not have an Exchange backup agent.

Re: [Bacula-users] Backing Up Microsoft Exchange
As it was mentioned before, there are only 2 ways to backup exchange. 1. Use 3rd party soft (ntbackup.exe will work. I use it to backup system state on all servers) 2. Use VSS under Win 2003. To conserve space on the server itself in the case of ntbackup, you could map a network share on any other machine (even Bacula server itself via samba) and backup exchange to the network share. Then use bacula to grab that file. (you could also delete that file with RunAfterJob) --- Yanik Doucet [EMAIL PROTECTED] escreveu: Hi everyone, I'd like to backup a Microsoft Exchange 2000 server.

Hi, I'd like to backup a Microsoft Exchange 2000 server. I was told it's not an easy task, and usually backup software have an option for this. Can Bacula easily backup such server? Without VSS? You can also use exmerge. It is a MS tool to dump mailboxes into PST files. We trigger exmerge in a client-run-before script to dump all mailboxes and then backup them with bacula. The advantage over ntbackup is that it is easier to extract single mails from a pst file. Regards, Julian - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Hi all. I've been using Bacula for a little over a year now, and I
still don't understand something. Here's a snip of parts from my

I wanted each file to be used only once so I can delete one backup if
I needed space in a pinch. I thought that one backup would take one
volume, but this isn't the case. I've got several backups for various
clients that take multiple volumes. Why is this? Is there anyway to
predict this or prevent this from happening?
What does bacula print in the log when a single job takes multiple volumes?
It should say why it needs the next volume.

APPARENT BUG: What is interesting is that it is complaining about
wanting a new volume exactly 24 hours *AFTER* it last tried to run,
and didn't find a new volume. (You can see that a we're a few days
ahead of 30 days, so I'm having to manually purge the volumes each
day until we catch up)
HOWEVER: I didn't purge the volume and release it for writing until
11pm last night.
ANALYSIS: So.. the volume's usage period is being determined not by
when it was first written to, but instead by the start time of the
first job that wrote to it.
Is this behavior known? Is it fixed in current? Obviously it's not
a crucial flaw, but if its decided not to fix it then it should be
documented.

[Bacula-users] Quantum Superloader3 LTO-3 Not seen as autochanger
I am pulling out my hair here trying to get our Quantum SuperLoader3 LTO-3
autochanger working with bacula 1.38.11-3.
The OS is CentOS 4.3 up to date on patches, kernel 2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp.
I previously had this same jukebox working just fine on a Dell server
running the same OS and with pretty much the same config file, but since
moving the drive to the tape host where it will be living (an IBM x336
rack server with an Adaptec 29320A Ultra320 SCSI adapter that is there
just to drive the jukebox), I can use bacula and tar to write to the tape
(/dev/st0), but mtx and bacula and tapeinfo and every other utility I can
find don't seem to believe this jukebox is a jukebox.
For instance, when it was connected to the Dell, I could run label
barcode and it cycled through all the tapes and labeled them per the
barcodes that are on them, just as should be. But if I try the same on
the IBM box:
*label barcode
The defined Storage resources are:
1: File
2: Autochanger

Connecting to Storage daemon Autochanger at 10.10.0.10:9103 ...

... it thinks it has no slots. Utilities outside bacula report errors. I

Yes, /dev/sg2 is the correct scsi generic for this machine. It has an LSI
Logic raid controller that takes up /dev/sg0 and /dev/sg1.
I recompiled the kernel to make sure CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y was set (it
wasn't before, but rebuilding it with that switch turned on didn't help).
This drive has a webserver in it and I am able to run the drive through
all its diags and move tapes around and stuff through the web interface.
Here is the section from the bacula-sd.conf file:
#
# An autochanger device with one drives
#
Autochanger {
Name = Autochanger
Device = Drive1
Changer Command = /etc/bacula/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d
Changer Device = /dev/sg0
}
Device {
Name = Drive1
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = LTO-3
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
AutoChanger = yes
Alert Command = sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'
Maximum Spool Size = 10737418240
Maximum Job Spool Size = 5368709120
Spool Directory = /home/bacula
}
This is the same as the one that worked on the Dell (except for changing
from /dev/sg0 to /dev/sg2).
Any ideas on what could be wrong here? As I said, this drive DID work
just fine with that Dell machine running the same OS and bacula. And even
on this machine, I can back up to and restore from the drive, but bacula
doesn't know how to manipulate the changer because it doesn't think there
is a changer there.
Thanks
Michael

Re: [Bacula-users] Quick question about requested tape
Hi, On 9/11/2006 11:28 AM, Jaime Ventura wrote: Hello. When adding a new tape to the pool, bacula ask me in with slot the new tape is.(I'm using an autocharger) When launching a restore job, bacula asks me for a specific tape so it can perform the restore. My question is: do i need do insert the requested tape on the original slot(specified when the tape was added to the pool), or can I insert the tape in any slot (bacula should search for it) or insert it on the drive? What then? Will issuing a mount command be sufficient for bacula to continue the job? No. After you change tapes, you have to inform Bacula of these changes. You could do this manually, using the 'update volume' command, or (semi-)automatic by using the 'update slots' command. If your autochanger has barcode support and your tapes are barcoded, this is a rather quick operation, otherwise use the 'update slots scan' syntax which will have Bacula load all the tapes from the slots you specify (so no need to read all tapes when you only changed some slots!) and update its catalog accordingly. For example, I use the following command twice a week: 'update slots scan storage=HPDAT' when I swap magazines for incremental and differential backups. When, for example for restoring, I only changed two tapes, the command could be 'update slots=2,3 scan storage=DLT'. These are real-life examples so I expect them to work for you, too. More information is, as usualy, in TFM, especially the chapters dealing with the console commands.

Re: [Bacula-users] WOW
Hi, and damn, here are some punctuation marks: ...,,,;;:: ;-) apart from that- I don't know Zabbix, but as long as there is any possibility to invoke some command from the shell that sends the notifications you want I'd say this is the right place to use a run command. Set up some script which gives the actual message to Zabbix. Call this script, either by ssh or directly from the run after command. Command substitution from Bacula allows you to pass the job name and status to the script you run, so it's easy to filter and only send a notification for failed, important jobs, for example. (I use a setup like this as an interface to Nagios.) If Zabbix works differently to what I assume, you could have a look at http://smstools.meinemullemaus.de/ which is a collection of programs to send SMS using a cellphone or a GSM terminal attached to your server, which has the advantage of being rather faster than some internet service, working even when internet connectivity is down, and being easily integrated into all sorts of software. All this assuming I understand your problem correctly :-) Arno On 9/11/2006 4:23 PM, Janco van der Merwe wrote: Yes but now you have to have a 3rd party app and requires subscription but Vodacom still has the e-mail to SMS but that is limited to 6 a day which will work but we are currently using the MTN network with our Zabbix which is on another machine and I hoped that there was a possibility that I could some how configure Bacula to use Zabbix which will solve this but I mean this is not a necessary thing just a nice to have, at least when jobs fail I have prior notice so that when my boss corners me I at least know and give him that all wonderful IT answer of I know and I'm busy working on it Janco v.d Merwe Network Administrator Dunns Stores (PTY) Ltd Switchboard: 011 541 3000 Direct: 011 541 3007 Fax: 086 632 1708 -Original Message- From: Alan Brown [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 September, 2006 11:42 To: Matt Cowger Cc: Janco van der Merwe;Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] WOW On Sat, 9 Sep 2006, Matt Cowger wrote: My apologies - your email address was .co.za, so i assumed Zaire. .za = south africa Didn't realize your SMSs were so limited - indeed a script to attach to a GSM phone might be your best route, but I can't give you any guidance on that :(.

I'm working on my Linux servers, and OS X is next. I've run through the process a couple of times and assume some error on my part is the cause of the problem. I've tried it with and without bacula-fd ./configured as static. In my first attempt I compiled non-static: 1. start-network failed because the mask was 255.0.0.0 on a 192.168 network, and no gateway. 2. there was no bacula-fd.conf anywhere after booting. To determine this, from / I ran ls -Rl|grep bacula-fd. 3. hard drive partition didn't in that the last partition created exceeded the available space on the disk. I recompiled the fd from /root/bacula-1.38.11/ with: ./configure --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --enable-static-fd -- enable-client-only make all created an image that used the bacula-fd.conf from the bacula-1.38.11/src folder, instead of the one from /etc/bacula. Booting this cd and running start-network again set a network config with the wrong mask, and no gateway. So, before I spend another few days trying to patch this, can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? TIA, Don. - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
