I'm trying to setup a backup system with Full on the first Sunday of each month, Diff on subsequent Sundays and Incrementals daily. Backups are written to external USB hard drives. I'm following quite closely the example given at http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Automated_Disk_Backup.html. The change I'm making is that I need to backup multiple servers. I've amended the pools and jobs as needed but I have one problem. The pool file is not being renamed on the disk drive I'm using.
Correct. Volume files are never renamed in normal operation. Once they are created, they keep their name (I never tried relabelin file volumes). You should keep in mind that Bacula is also a tape backup program, and the volume label is more or less equivalent of the tape name. Think of a sticker or a bar code label - you don't change these that often... Arno
Ie if I run an incremental backup on Feb 24th the file created is Inc-2006-02-24. The next incremental backup on the next day uses the same filename, not Inc-2006-02-25 as expected, which is messing up the volume recycling. Configuration snippets are below Any pointers please? JobDefs { Name = "DefaultJob" Type = Backup Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" Storage = File Messages = Standard Pool = Default Full Backup Pool = Full-Pool Incremental Backup Pool = Inc-Pool Differential Backup Pool = Diff-Pool Priority = 10 } Job { Name = "Server1" Client = server1-fd JobDefs = "DefaultJob" Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/Server1.bsr" FileSet = "Server1" } Job { Name = "Server2" Client = server2-fd JobDefs = "DefaultJob" Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/ Server2.bsr" FileSet = " Server2" } Pool { Name = Inc-Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 20 days Accept Any Volume = yes Label Format = "Inc-${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}-${Day:p/2/0/r}" Maximum Volumes = 5 } Matt ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
