[Bacula-users] [bacula] manual tape mount necessary
Hi everyone,
we have got some problems setting up Bacula correctly. We want to use two
tapes to make full backups every night. The problem we run into is, that
Bacula doesn't mount our tapes automatically before running the job. It
always gives us following message:
01-Oct 20:05 dump-sd: Please mount Volume QTAPE_TWO on Storage Device
QTapeStorage for Job QBACKUP-backup.2006-10-01_13.05.00
We always have to mount the tapes manually in order to get the scheduled
jobs started.
## Our storage daemon config in bacula-sd.conf:
Device {
Name = QTapeStorage
Media Type = VXA
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
LabelMedia = yes;
AutomaticMount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = no;
}
Can someone help us to solve this problem? We would be grateful for every
hint!!
Thanks in advance,
Juergen

I'm currently using backuppc and looking at bacula as an alternative for better tape handling. However, I find the web interface of backuppc to be very useful even though the backups themselves are automated. In particular, a glance at the 'host summary' screen shows a color-coded list where you immediately notice any problems, you can browse through the backups and either restore files or grab a file or tar/zip archive of multiple files directly through the browser interface, and backuppc has a concept of individual machine 'owners' that can browse and restore their own files through the web interface as well as request immediate backup runs - without being able to see hosts other than their own. When someone needs a restore they can probably still find a working browser. I don't think I'd want to be trying to make an NX client work in that situation, and it doesn't have a way to deliver files directly in any case. Also, most places that would need web security and logins are likely to already have such applications running under apache so that probably isn't a real big issue. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Take Surveys.

[Bacula-users] bacula documentation - cloning jobs typo
Hi Guys, First of all - thanks for this great piece of software! And thanks for adding a cloning option in recent version :) I think there's a typo in current docs though. In 'configuring the director' section, in the description of a 'run' setting there is an example string: run = Nightly-backup level=%s since=\%s\ storage=DDS-4 I think the level=%s got there by mistake and it should be: run = Nightly-backup level=%l since=\%s\ storage=DDS-4 (it worked for me and now I have beautiful clones on my other backuping device! ;)) Best regards Radek - Take Surveys.

[Bacula-users] Volume not being recycled?
Hi all, Can anyone explain why this volume is not being recycled? From 'list media': VolumeName = za01 VolRetention = 950,400 (11 days) LastWritten = 2006-08-06 13:45:57 Status = Used And this tape was put in the changer last saturday, 2006-09-30. So the time in between was a lot more. The current status is 'Used', which is why Bacula refused to write to it: Current Volume za01 not acceptable because: 1998 Volume za01 status is Used, but should be Append, Purged or Recycle.

Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] GUI interface
On Saturday 30 September 2006 17:28, Jo wrote: Kern Sibbald schreef: Hello, As I previously wrote, working on a GUI solution is now one of my top priorities. We have discussed the problems and possible solutions for getting a good GUI interface for Bacula a number of times. I've thought about all the possibilities, and there are a lot of them. Previously, I had been leaning more towards a Python Qt interface, because Python is a nice language and easy to program. Unfortunately, I haven't found any really good IDE (integrated development environment) for it, nor have I found any good documentation on the Python Qt interface. So I have abandoned this idea. Another idea that I have abandoned is developing a web application. There are two reasons: 1. I find no user interface design tools for web based applications. 2. web applications are very problematic for security minded people such as myself. I run a web server, but there is no way in the world that I would run a Bacula web application on my web server. In the past, I have gotten around this by having a second LAN only server, but I don't really like this.

One can certainly argue with the above points, but that is pretty much useless because what I am writing is not to convince you about my views but to give you a little bit of the reasoning behind the direction I am taking. So that is the brief background. There is obviously much more to it all, but I'd like to get to the point, which is that I am now starting a new core code project for Bacula to initially create a console GUI (combination of bconsole, gconsole, wx-console, and all the others). As a second step, it will evolve (or start a separate program) to including manangement job summary information such as bacula-web and similar programs. To do the project, I intend to use Kdevelop as the IDE, designer as the GUI design tool (integrated into Kdevelop), C++, and Qt3 (later Qt4). I would also like it to use cmake, but expect that in the beginning it will use qmake. All this is a bit too much for me at one time, because all the pieces (Kdevelop, designer, Qt3, qmake or cmake) are all new to me, so I really would like to get some help from any of you who are experienced in these tools or who just want to help. A few notes about the project: - as mentioned above, it will be based on C++ and Qt - it will use Kdevelop, designer and qmake or cmake - it will be part of the base Bacula code, and hence in the bacula source tree. - it will replace, gconsole and wx-console (i.e. they are depreciated) - it will be copyrighted by the Bacula project (for the moment me -- more on that in my status #2 concerning the future of the Bacula project). - it will serve as a test bed for defining a Bacula GUI API - it will be highly integrated with the Director, but nevertheless a separate program. - if I can get some help starting the project, I can imagine that we could get something quite functional with at least the capabilities of gconsole (and maybe wx-console) by the end of the year. If I have to do it alone, it will probably be mid-2007 before it becomes functional. Did you consider wx-python. There is Boa-constructor as the IDE, but apparently you lean very much towards QT. I'm mostly sad because you move away from Python, since I don't know any C++. OTOH I don't have time to pitch in, so I don't really have too much to say about it. I do hope you will find somebody who feels like helping. A GUI for Bacula is long overdue. wxWidgets is too slow, clunky, not very pretty, and has no GUI interface builder. Qt is the opposite of those. I wanted to use Qt Python, but there is not a single book written on it, so I'm going with straight C++, which simplifies my life somewhat. The more I see of Qt designer (did the first exercise in the tutorial this morning), the more I am impressed. 100 x better than glade. There is a lot to learn, but at least you can group items after you insert them. glade requires you to put either a horizontal or vertical container before you begin inserting widgets, which is not at all intuitive for guys like me who design bottom up rather than top down.

[Bacula-users] Problem with PKI Signatures
Hi,
I'm trying to test bacula with encryption following this instructions
http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Bacula_Data_Encryption.html, but its

I'm using bacula-1.38 source compiled with OpenSSL support, my bacula-fd

I guess you mean tapes that have already been written into? If this is what you mean, you can limit number of jobs that will be written into a single volume (once?), or the allowed time to write into a volume since the volume was written into for the first time (anything from less than 1 day to 5.9 months), for example. I propably would use the latter one, set it to eg. 1 day. This way you can run any number of jobs in your once in 6 mo set as long as they'll finish in a total of 24 hours. After this period expires, Bacula won't write again into the same volume. Bacula manual is your friend :-) -- TiN - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

From 'list media': VolumeName = za01 VolRetention = 950,400 (11 days) LastWritten = 2006-08-06 13:45:57 Status = Used And this tape was put in the changer last saturday, 2006-09-30. So the time in between was a lot more. The current status is 'Used', which is why Bacula refused to write to it: Current Volume za01 not acceptable because: 1998 Volume za01 status is Used, but should be Append, Purged or Recycle. That's because the volume is not yet pruned which happens only if Bacula decides it has to be pruned. Have you set all the relevant retention times (client, pool) and is automatic pruning enabled?

Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] GUI interface
Hi Kern! I'm +1 on the choose of QT as the primary framework for developing the bacula GUI. But I strongly suggest to use QT4 (4.2) from the beginning and save everybody from the pain of a later migration. I also recommends you reconsider the PyQT option, because it's a really good option and has a lot of documentation: First I recommend you reading the excellent overview of PyQt4 that was presented at EuroPython 2006 [0], then look at all the info found in the PyQT wiki [1] including a reference to a lot of nice tutorials, including Boudewijn Rempt's book GUI Programming with Python: Qt Edition available online in the PyQT homepage [2]. Also I think that the way to go with PyQT is to read the Qt Documentation (including the Qt Designer Manual) and then read the PyQT reference guide [3] (the examples shown in this guide often refers to the QT Documentation for a full description). In case you still want to not use PyQT :-) I'd suggest the revision of the source code of fwbuilder [4]. Fwbuilder is an excellent GUI program (GPL) made in C++, QT3 and uses QT Designer. Maybe it's a good starting point for developing the Bacula GUI.

We have discussed the problems and possible solutions for getting a good GUI interface for Bacula a number of times. I've thought about all the possibilities, and there are a lot of them. Previously, I had been leaning more towards a Python Qt interface, because Python is a nice language and easy to program. Unfortunately, I haven't found any really good IDE (integrated development environment) for it, nor have I found any good documentation on the Python Qt interface. So I have abandoned this idea. Another idea that I have abandoned is developing a web application. There are two reasons: 1. I find no user interface design tools for web based applications. 2. web applications are very problematic for security minded people such as myself. I run a web server, but there is no way in the world that I would run a Bacula web application on my web server. In the past, I have gotten around this by having a second LAN only server, but I don't really like this. In addition with technology such as FreeNX, I believe that there is no disadvantage to writing desktop GUI applications -- they can now be executed from anywhere much like a web application can. One can certainly argue with the above points, but that is pretty much useless because what I am writing is not to convince you about my views but to give you a little bit of the reasoning behind the direction I am taking. So that is the brief background. There is obviously much more to it all, but I'd like to get to the point, which is that I am now starting a new core code project for Bacula to initially create a console GUI (combination of bconsole, gconsole, wx-console, and all the others). As a second step, it will evolve (or start a separate program) to including manangement job summary information such as bacula-web and similar programs. To do the project, I intend to use Kdevelop as the IDE, designer as the GUI design tool (integrated into Kdevelop), C++, and Qt3 (later Qt4). I would also like it to use cmake, but expect that in the beginning it will use qmake. All this is a bit too much for me at one time, because all the pieces (Kdevelop, designer, Qt3, qmake or cmake) are all new to me, so I really would like to get some help from any of you who are experienced in these tools or who just want to help. A few notes about the project: - as mentioned above, it will be based on C++ and Qt - it will use Kdevelop, designer and qmake or cmake - it will be part of the base Bacula code, and hence in the bacula source tree. - it will replace, gconsole and wx-console (i.e. they are depreciated) - it will be copyrighted by the Bacula project (for the moment me -- more on that in my status #2 concerning the future of the Bacula project). - it will serve as a test bed for defining a Bacula GUI API - it will be highly integrated with the Director, but nevertheless a separate program. - if I can get some help starting the project, I can imagine that we could get something quite functional with at least the capabilities of gconsole (and maybe wx-console) by the end of the year. If I have to do it alone, it will probably be mid-2007 before it becomes functional.

The problem is that the cancel option in the console tries to attach to the client prior to canceling the job but the client cannot be connected. There seems to be no kill option like kill -9 PID in *nix. This has caused other jobs in the Running Jobs to wait forever - I have not waited long enough to see if the Max Start Delay is activated. My only fix is to restart the processes on the server that is bacula restart. Is there another way to kill the job and still maintain the existing jobs in the Running Jobs. The other problem I have noticed when writing to tape and the disconnection occurs is the volume and catalog are out by 2 - is this due to the update frequency of the catalog?

[Bacula-users] btape won't autoload for TL892 on Solaris 10?
I'm configuring bacula 1.39.22 on Solaris 10 x86 on an IBM e345 with a
Compaq TL892 library, 2 TZ89 DLT drives w/ 1 TL800 robot. I've been
using a combination of the Bacula manual and Dan Langille's articles to
work out the nuances of the Storage clause for the bacula-sd.conf file.
I'm getting 2 unexpected results from btape fill. It doesn't autoload
the next tape and it hangs after reading the first 1 records from
the first tape.
Where can I start looking to resolve the problems? Is the no autoload a
problem because I don't have a storage pool defined with appendable
volumes or is it a device configuration problem?
The btape test command says that my settings are ok, and the autochanger
section of btape also works as expected.
The btape fill command takes about 2 hours to fill the DLTIV tape using
the /dev/rmt/0cbn device. When it reaches the end of the first tape I
get this (debug is set to 99):

I used mtx in another session to unload the first tape and load the
second. The test continued normally, successfully loading, labeling and
writing to the second tape and then a similar message and the prompt to
reload the first tape.
The process then seems to hang after reading the first 1 records :
