In case Kern's just-posted reminder about needed information for support was aimed at me, I'm running Bacula 1.38.2 on RHEL4 Update 2.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gary Kopp Sent: Wednesday, January 04, 2006 10:00 AM To: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Bacula-users] Obnoxious hard link warnings As is documented, when Bacula backs up a hard link it makes sure the linked-to file is only backed up once, and generates warning messages on all links to the same file after the first one. On full backups of most Linux systems this can produce a flood of messages. One way to avoid this is turn off the backup of links. This results in redundant copies of the hard-linked files but more importantly (to me, at least) makes the backup unusable for a full system restore, since the hard links are gone. Is there any way to suppress this particular warning message, short of my patching find_one.c? I can drop these messages by scanning for the specific message text in my external log server, but I can't filter them out of Bacula's console logging without suppressing all warning-class messages, which I don't want to do. I guess one thing I'm not thrilled about is the choice to classify these messages as "warning" when they clearly are routine when backing up hard links. --Gary Kopp ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
