Hello Bacula Users,
Where I don't want to backup logfiles,
I do want to restore empty log directory trees.
How to define a FileSet that matches
find /var/log -type d
You might try a wildfile directive which matches *all* files for
exclusion. As it should only be applied to files the directories
should not be affected.
I couldn't write that into a file set definition.
My efforts would bring me all the log files :-(
| *estimate job=
| Using Catalog MyCatalog
| Connecting to Client ***-fd at :9102
| 2000 OK estimate files=684277 bytes=47,077,206,076
| *reload
| *estimate job=
| Using Catalog MyCatalog
| Connecting to Client ***-fd at :9102
| 2000 OK estimate files=685768 bytes=50,348,262,388
Also I did spend time on another approach.
It involves an action at client side. In the bash shell I did
for D in $( find /var/log -type d ); do echo but not all the log files in
it $D/.restorethislogdirectory; do
The result is like
| # find /var/log -name .restorethislogdirectory | tail -n 6
| /var/log/pm/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/cups/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/news/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/httpd/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/puppet/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/prelink/.restorethislogdirectory
And at Bacula server side had I a fileset like
| FileSet { Name = rootbootvar
| Include {
| Options {
| signature = MD5
| }
| File = /
| File = /boot
| File = /var
| File = /var/spool/cron
| }
| Exclude {
| File = /proc
| File = /tmp
| File = /var/log
| File = /var/spool
| File = /.journal
| File = /.fsck
| }
| }
And did change that into
| FileSet { Name = rootbootvar
| Include {
| Options {
| signature = MD5
| }
| File = /
| File = /boot
| File = /var
| File = /var/spool/cron
| }
| Exclude {
| Options {
| Exclude = no
| Wild = /var/log/*/.restorethislogdirectory
| }
| File = /proc
| File = /tmp
| File = /var/log
| File = /var/spool
| File = /.journal
| File = /.fsck
| }
| }
But with no effect.
Other attempts with
| Wild = /var/log/*/.restorethislogdirectory
couldn't persuade Bacula to backup those hidden files.
More hints how to get /var/log directories during restore
are very welcome
Cheers
