Hi all I'm trying to use bacula for backup of my linux-vservers. These reside under a directory /vservers in their own ext3 filesystem. The /vservers directory is chmod 0000 (the chroot barrier) and either has "chattr +t" or "setattr --barrier" (depending on the linux-vserver version being used).
Backup seems to work, at least the files are counted and can be found within the catalog. But when I try to restore some file below /vservers, the director reports "ok" and counts the file, but then no file has been written to the restore location. I think that the chmod 0000 of the /vservers directory (or the setattr --barrier) is the problem, but I'm unsure. Is there a way to tell bacula to ignore the attributes when restoring? Did anybody succeed doing linux-vserver backup/restore from the host server using bacula? I'm also unsure whether bacula saves/restores the UID/GID of the files numerically (as it hopefully does, as each vserver has different UID/GID assignments). Of course, I could install a bacula-fd within each VServer and create individual jobs, but backing up the entire /vservers partition at once would save me a lot of configuration. Any ideas?
