Hello,
I am new to bacula and have run successful backups with it but I am
encountering a nagging problem. I'm using bacula 2.2.8 on ubuntu 8.04lts. The
problem occurs with a daily backup not being able to run because the director
is unable to open the log file:
Error: message.c:590 fopen
I think I know the problem but I couldn't test it because my patients ended
with bacula and I erased all tapes and deleted the volumes for relabeling. I
discovered I have to update a volume to remove it from the pool when it is
removed from the library. It looks like I cannot simply update slo

Thanks for your tip. I've created the index as mentioned in the
thread, but my restores still very slow. I'm not using accurate backups.
May be I have to migrate from mysql to postgres, my database are
MyISAM with 60 gb of data. Or else downgrade back to 3.0.3 version.
Any other tip ?

Any comments? Am I completely off base?

Please forgive my ignorance, but it's been years since I used Bacula and

I'm relatively new to Bacula, and am working on my first deployment. I am

Again the limit is only 1 volume can be loaded in 1 storage device at
a time. This is not that big of a limitation because with disk you
can have 1 storage devices if

Hi,
i use two simple usb-disks for backups. Each friday the aktive disk is
exchanged and put in safe. Alas bacula asks me always to bring the last
used volume online or label a new one. Labeling a new one solves the
problem but this is not a good solution, as it involves manual

Hey,
I created some clients which I don't need anymore. When running a job I
can't select them, running restore shows them thought. "select * from
Client;" shows the entries in the database. Is it safe to remove them?
dbcheck didn't report any orphaned clients which is strange.

Hello List,
I am using Bacula 3.0.3 in conjunction with a 4 drive autochanger and
"Prefer Mounted Volumes" set to "No." Unfortunately, I have had a number
of problems with Bacula trying to back up to a volume that is already
being used for another job. As a result, the job will continue to wait

If they are not the same volume then you need to have more than 1
storage device. Remember that only 1 volume can be loade

I am struggling a bit with the wildcard stuff.
I want to back up all Mail directories in the homedirectories of users,
so /home/*/Mail (including subdirs) needs to be backed up.
In order to take a more generic approach I tried the wild card stuff,
but or nothing gets backed up, or everything.
So
