A few weeks after moving my bacula database from a postgresql 7 server to a new postgresql 8 server by using pg_dump, I am having problems with selecting files for restores although my database looks mostly ok. I did have a problem in which all clients were listed twice in the client table and bacula really did not like this so I deleted the duplicate rows (using knoda) but I see this was somehow messed up as only a few of my clients are listed now not all ~17.
The problem is that in a gnome-console or wx-console when I ask for all the backups for a client for a single job it returns either Improper date format because there is no date to select or "No Full backup before 2006-07-20 09:33:33 found." But I do have several full backups for that client, job and pool. # select jobid,job,poolid,clientid,level,jobstatus from job where name='CleanImages'; jobid | job | poolid | clientid | level | jobstatus -------+---------------------------------+--------+----------+-------+----------- 1179 | CleanImages.2006-03-01_14.39.49 | | | F | C 1185 | CleanImages.2006-03-01_14.59.13 | 2 | 3 | F | T 1360 | CleanImages.2006-04-25_14.58.13 | 12 | 3 | F | f 1361 | CleanImages.2006-04-25_15.04.31 | 12 | | F | T 1470 | CleanImages.2006-05-25_17.42.36 | 12 | | F | T 1578 | CleanImages.2006-06-23_14.03.19 | 12 | | F | T (6 rows) Could it be that the clientid is not filled in?? Or could it be the problem with the client table? # select * from client; clientid | name | uname | autoprune | fileretention | jobretention ----------+---------------+-----------------------------------+-----------+---------------+-------------- 21 | dev2-fd | Windows XP,MVS,NT 5.1.2600 | 0 | 5184000 | 15552000 19 | datastore0-fd | x86_64-pc-linux-gnu,gentoo,1.6.14 | 0 | 5184000 | 15552000 20 | dev4-fd | x86_64-pc-linux-gnu,gentoo,1.6.13 | 0 | 5184000 | 15552000 18 | fileserver-fd | x86_64-pc-linux-gnu,gentoo,1.6.14 | 0 | 5184000 | 15552000 (4 rows) The correct client for all the CleanImages jobs was fileserver-fd. I believe I have to restore/fix the client table to fix this problem. Is this true?? I still have access to the old server. BTW, I am running the bacula-1.38.11 on an amd64 gentoo box. fileserver is the bacula director and the database is on a different amd64 gentoo box if that makes a difference. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
