Hi there, i'm using bacula (currently version 1.36.3) since about a year now, and i'm quite happy with the system. There are some questions left i would like to have clarified if someone's able to give me some hints:
Is it possible to suppress "Warning: find_one.c:203 Attempt to backup hard linked file /usr/share/zoneinfo/Pacific/Gambier twice ignored." warnings? There are some hosts that have a lot of hard links and they mess up the status report emails, so i would like to not have warnings about suppressed hard link backups. I used to backup a server which has now been removed from the configs. I see that the old data from this host still remains in the database catalog. Is there some way to make the database be in sync with the current configured clients? Usually, bacula cleans up the tables itself but it doesn't seem to work anymore once a client has been removed from the config files. So i have entries for example in the Job table for jobs that have been run in april 2005 since the client has been deleted back then. This is needed because my bacula database is now about 3.4 GB in size which seems a little bit too much for a 4-week-schedule. I think i can reduce this a lot if i'm able to clean up the tables. For example: mysql> select JobId,Job,StartTime,EndTime,JobTDate from Job order by StartTime asc limit 10; +-------+------------------------------------+---------------------+---------------------+------------+ | JobId | Job | StartTime | EndTime | JobTDate | +-------+------------------------------------+---------------------+---------------------+------------+ | 3530 | sextans.2005-11-07_01.29.05 | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 | 1131323344 | | 3531 | taurus.2005-11-07_01.29.06 | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 | 1131323345 | | 3529 | recaroshop.com.2005-11-07_01.29.04 | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 | 1131323343 | | 1 | achilles.2005-04-06_17.19.18 | 2005-04-06 17:19:20 | 2005-04-06 17:19:24 | 1112800764 | | 2 | achilles.2005-04-06_17.20.02 | 2005-04-06 17:20:04 | 2005-04-06 17:32:23 | 1112801543 | | 3 | achilles.2005-04-06_18.03.12 | 2005-04-06 18:03:14 | 2005-04-06 18:03:19 | 1112803399 | | 4 | achilles.2005-04-06_18.07.01 | 2005-04-06 18:07:03 | 2005-04-06 18:10:05 | 1112803805 | | 5 | draco.2005-04-07_01.05.00 | 2005-04-07 01:05:01 | 2005-04-07 01:09:22 | 1112828962 | | 6 | achilles.2005-04-07_01.05.01 | 2005-04-07 01:09:22 | 2005-04-07 01:12:36 | 1112829156 | | 7 | BackupCatalog.2005-04-07_01.10.00 | 2005-04-07 01:12:36 | 2005-04-07 01:12:51 | 1112829171 | +-------+------------------------------------+---------------------+---------------------+------------+ 10 rows in set (0.00 sec) -- Le deagh dhùraghd, Frank Altpeter Two of the most famous products of Berkeley are LSD and Unix.
