 What are you trying to do?

Hello Dan,

we dump a postgresql database to files and backup them up to tape 
ones a day. This is done by a runscript in a job of type backup. But 
we also dump the postgresql database only to disk without backing up 
to tape every 6 hours. I want to use the same infrastructure (like 
messaging and logging of bacula and my scripts around bacula). If I 
use cron etc., I have write a secondary logging and messaging 
scripts and it have to be done from every client.


You can create a backup job of type Admin and then put everything 
you want to run into the RunBeforeJob script. Admin Type jobs will do 
everything normal backup jobs do - except for actually backing 
anything up :)


And the ability to run a script on the client. ;)


Dang! Documentation is a bit sketchy about this :) How about still using 
an admin job, but using it to start the script on the client via ssh? 
That's also kinda hackish, but still nicer than an empty backup job, 
IMHO ...

[Bacula-users] Reducing the maximum number of volumes in a pool

2013-02-27 Thread Uwe Schuerkamp
Hi folks, 

I'm trying to save a bit of disk space by reducing the number of
volumes in the incremental pool (we use separate pools for for full
and incremental backups for each client, bacula 5.2.13 compiled from
source). Previously we had 15 incremental volumes per pool, now I'd
like to retain 7 for each client. 

I've changed all the pool definitions in the director config from 

Maximum Volumes = 15 

to 

Maximum Volumes = 7

for the incremental pools, but following an update pool from
resource the db record still shows the previous number of volumes in
the pool for Max, not the one defined in the director config.

Any idea why this would happen or how to fix it, short of writing some
custom sql to manually set the new value in the database? I've also
tried to restart bacula, but that hasn't helped, either. 

All the best  thanks in advance for your help,

Uwe

su - bacula -s /bin/sh
would have been enough for a temporary job as 'bacula'. The '-' is
important as it gives you the actual environment of the bacula user,
e.g. $HOME.
For the ssh-call itself, you might consider
  ssh -t
to allocate a pseudo terminal, if the job you want to run would like to
have one.

In bconsole, did you issue the reload command before issuing the update

 Dan Langille - http://langille.org/

Yep, I did, I even restarted all bacula components, still the number
of maximum volumes remains the same as before. Some additional info on
the situation: Some of the pools have not yet reached their previous
max volume count, could this interfere with the update pool from
resource command? 

All the best, Uwe

[Bacula-users] what would cause a server to not auto-label a new file?

2013-02-27 Thread Jonathan Horne
I have 2 bacula servers, both 5.0.0.x from centos repo.  One server, has never 
one time failed to label/create a new file to continue backing up.

This other server, a couple days ago on a full backup, labeled a few files, 
then stopped.  And now it wont label them unless I give the commands by hand to 
create a new file.

Is there some scenario that causes this behavior?

Thanks,
jonathan

Hi,

I'd want to do something like that:

I've tried but bconsole prompt me for accept or cancel the job, and I'd
want that just it runs the job :)

The robot would have to support partitioning, at which point it is
logically two robots.

I've seen an Overland Neo 4000 with 4 drives partitioned in two, it
worked quite well.

Hello,

Last time I did it on a TS3584, I partitioned the physical library to 
create 3 logical libraries.

The problem is that we're looking at extremely large enterprise libraries and dozens of sd's.Our library simply -may- not be able to handle as many partitions as we would end up needing.

Oh, you want to have multiple SD use an unpartitioned library, the
