Re: [Bacula-users] restore windows problem

Have you tried with double / like C:// ?

I think I fixed my problem time ago with that.

Asunto: [Bacula-users] restore windows problem

It has to do with the person who originally set up our backup service.  We
have separate files to specify the partitions for all the systems we backup
(IMHO - easier that way rather than putting the specific file systems in
bacula-dir.conf.  This way you don't have to stop and start the daemon
everything you change a partition).

So the file with the partitions for the windows server we backup had the
partitions listed as you see them above.  I've changed that now to a more
conventional style of C:/ (as an example).  This, I think, should make
changing directories easier in the future.  However, since I have to go back
a couple of weeks to retrieve the data, I still have to deal with the C:\/
format, and I somehow have to find a way to cd into a directory, which I am
still unable to figure out.

 I am trying to restore some Windows file from a specfic directory.
 After specifying data and host, bacula comes back with the $, at which
 time I first say:
 
 $ umark all
 
 Then I try to see all the file systems that have been backed up:
 
 $ ls
 C:\/
 E:\/
 F:\/
 G:\/
 H:\/
 I:\/
 $
 
 I have tried every syntax I can think of:
 
 $ cd F:
 $ cd F:
 $ cd F:\/
 $ cd F:\/
 $ cd F:/Admin
 $ cd F:\/Admin
 
 all of which return
 
 Invalid path given
 
 Any suggestions as to the specific syntax that bacula is wanting?
cd F:/

I have no idea why do you see those \/ in the ls' output--in my
Windows backups paths show up as
C:/
D:/
etc in the ls' output in the root directory of the restore ... select
view.
I'm using bacula 5.0.2 (as packaged for Debian).
