Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacularis/Baculum] Restore with web doesn't create job before 1 hour
Hello Timothé, Thanks for your detailed description of the problem. For start I would propose to check what is going inside Bacula and the Catalog when this restore is trying to start. Yes, observing 'ps aux' is a good idea, that you did. Also useful can be 'top' command with watching what process takes the most resources. >From the Bacula side you can set debug for Director by this bconsole command: setdebug level=500 tags=bvfs,sql trace=1 dir in the Bacula Director working directory you will see the youdirector-dir.trace file where this debug lines will be written. If your Catalog database is PostgreSQL you ran run in the time of the restore hanging this SQL query to see currently pending SQL queries: SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity; Please let us know about the results. Good luck.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacularis API host initial setup with postgresql and bacula.
Hello Rob, Bacularis is not able to use the peer authentication method easily because it is authentication that is based on system users. In this case the Bacularis PHP user usually is different from the default Bacula database user. In your case I think if you want you can stay in the peer method for Bacula connections and add a line in pg_hba.conf to TCP/IP connections for Bacularis. Something like: # "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only (for Bacula) local all all peer # IPv4 local connections (for Bacularis): hostall all 127.0.0.1/32 scram-sha-256 The only thing to do is to set password for your 'bacula' user: ALTER USER bacula WITH PASSWORD 'STRONG_PASSWORD'; This password will be used for TCP/IP connections but Bacula will not need it.

At the same time if i open new tab to default web page it seems the server not responding for a while and after a time the page loaded for the default tab and error "504 Gateway timeout" for restore tab If i ssh and launch bconsole and enter "status director" i can see that no job was created (terminated or running or whatever state).

Re: [Bacula-users] Any suggestions for fail2ban jail for Bacula Director ?
Nothing against fail2ban, which is quite good at mitigating brute force and dictionary attacks against password protection, but for opening Dir to the public internet, I would most definitely suggest looking into using TLS certificates issued by your own private CA instead.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacularis API host initial setup with postgresql and bacula.
Marcin, Thank you for the very quick response! I will experiment with this when I have some time. I am guessing because I've never configured a password for the bacula database, and based on my pg_hba.conf, that bacula is authenticating to the database server via peer connections, so bacula doesn't need a password to access the database (in my default configuration). This detail kind of stumped me at first. Please let me know if you think this is incorrect. My original fear was that resetting the database password would lock bacula out of the database.

Hi,
I've installed Bacula recently in a server with a 7TB RAID5 storage, and

I have configured 9 remote servers (most Linux, one Windows) to have the

understand how to do the tape backup. Now, I have a question about
making the backup into both destinations.
I have the following setup for JobsDef:
JobDefs {

Storage = FileAligned

Job {

JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
Client = ad-fd
FileSet = "etc"
}
This will, obviously go to the dedup-disk storage. The question is, how
should I add the tape setup? Is there a way to add a couple of lines to
the job definition above so that the backup goes to both systems? Should
I create a separate job definition for the tape backup? Some other way I
didn't consider?
Thanks,

Hello Marcos,
With Bacula, there are almost always 10+ different ways to accomplish
things, and/or to even think about them.
For example, you can override the Pool, Level, and Storage in a
Schedule...
So, with this in mind, you might set your job to run Incs each weekday
to disk, and then set the Fulls to run to tape on the weekend. (just
one idea)
Another option is to use Copy jobs. With Copy jobs, you can run your
Incs and Fulls to disk, then you can run a Copy job to copy your Incs,
Fulls, or both to tape during normal working hours because Copy jobs
do not make use of any Clients, so business productivity will not be
affected on your server(s).
In your case, I would probably go with a Copy job. This way, you have
your backups on disk for fast restores when needed, and you have the
same data copied to new jobids onto tape - maybe with longer retention
periods, for example.
Also have a look at the `SelectionType = PoolUncopiedJobs` feature for
Copy jobs. This is a nice, handy "shortcut" to make sure that each of
your jobs in some Pool is copied once, and only once to tape.
In this case, you can have two Copy jobs configured, one looking at
your Full disk pool and one looking at your Inc disk pool and copying
jobs that have not been copied.
OR, you can have one copy job running on a schedule where the Pool is
overridden at two different times of the day to copy from the Full
disk pool, and then also from the Inc disk pool.
OR... (lol I said 10, so I am working towards that number, and I am
getting close :) ... You can have your normal backup jobs include a
`RunScript {RunsWhen = after}` section which triggers an immediate
copy of the job to tape as soon as it is completed.
So, I would start with a look at Copy jobs and see where that goes. :)
Feel free to ask more questions once you have taken a look at Copy jobs.
Hope this helps,
Bill
Yes, this helps A LOT. I will study the copy job option. It really seems
perfect for my scenario.
