Re: [Bacula-users] Stop unfinished backup, retain data

2014-08-28 Thread Kern Sibbald
Hello,

The Bacula Enterprise Edition has this feature.  At some point in time
(at the latest about 4 years from now) this feature will be back ported
to the community version.

Best regards,
Kern

 Hi All,

 I use Bacula 5.2.6. If I'm not mistaken when I have a backup running and I 
 cancel it, Bacula discards the backup records for the data it has taken to 
 tape 
 which requires Bacula to back up the same files again on the next run. Isn't 
 that correct?

 If that is correct, is there any way to stop a running backup in which Bacula 
 retains what it has managed to backup so far and picks up where it left off 
 on 
 the next run?

 Thanks,
 Rich.

 Hi All,


Hi Richard,


 If that is correct, is there any way to stop a running backup in which
 Bacula
 retains what it has managed to backup so far and picks up where it left
 off on

I think we don't have this feature yet on community version. Bacula 7.0 has
a resume command but I think its behavior its not resuming, but restarting
the failed jobs.
However, Bacula Enterprise seems to have it.
Anyway: maybe you can split this server FileSet in two or tree, that way
you can restart only the jobs that failed and would copy partial server
data.


 Thanks,
 Rich.
