Hi,

I have a problem getting the default system to work (as described in the
installation document).

The issue is that after installing it (from Gentoo source tree), I created
the postgresql database just fine, the daemons start up just fine, I can
interact with the system with bconsole, and everything works perfectly
up to the point where I must check 'status storage', when it says:

#######################

*status storage
Automatically selected Storage: File
Connecting to Storage daemon File at rainyday:9103

rainyday-sd Version: 1.36.3 (22 April 2005) i686-pc-linux-gnu gentoo
1.6.14
Daemon started 11-Aug-06 14:51, 0 Jobs run since started.
  Heap: bytes=6,411 max_bytes=6,883 bufs=43 max_bufs=47

Running Jobs:
No Jobs running.
====
No Terminated Jobs.

Device status:
Archive "FileStorage" is not open or does not exist.

#######################

The FileStorage points to /tmp, and /tmp is there with lots of diskspace
and a+rwx rights.

If I try to label it, it shows:

########################

*label
Automatically selected Storage: File
Enter new Volume name: archive1
Automatically selected Pool: Default
Connecting to Storage daemon File at rainyday:9103 ...
Sending label command for Volume "archive1" Slot 0 ...
3999 Device "FileStorage" not found
Label command failed for Volume archive1.
Do not forget to mount the drive!!!

########################

I've tried to change the syntax in bacula-sd.conf but it doesn't help. The
current setup is:


#####################

---- bacula-sd.conf

Device {
   Name = FileStorage
   Media Type = File
   Archive Device = /pub/backups/arch/archive1
   LabelMedia = yes;
   Random Access = Yes;
   AutomaticMount = yes;
   RemovableMedia = no;
   AlwaysOpen = yes;
}

---- bacula-dir.conf

Storage {
   Name = File
   Address = rainyday
   SDPort = 9103
   Password = "<clipped>"
   Device = FileStorage
   Media Type = File
}

####################

It just keeps complaining that the device doesn't exist. I've tried
different paths, with and without filenames that exist and don't exist.

Please, help me with this. The system version is ' bacula-1.36.3'.

Dont you worry, you can connect to the sd daemon and this message is normal:

Device status:
Archive "FileStorage" is not open or does not exist.

Now, the problem is went you send the Label command, you change the default settings of the File Device in bacula-sd.conf, the default settings are:

bacula-sd.conf
###########################
Device {
  Name = FileStorage
  Media Type = File
  Archive Device = /opt/FileBackups
  LabelMedia = yes;                   # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
  Random Access = Yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
}
#############################

bacula-dir.conf
#############################
# Definition of file storage device
Storage {
  Name = File
  Address = 192.168.2.3                # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here
  SDPort = 9103
  Password = "sd"
  Device = FileStorage
  Media Type = File
}
#############################

If i where you:
1; i would use IP numbers in bacula-dir
2; Change the bacula-sd device to default settings, just see which line is different...
3; Check that bacula user can rw to the folder you give, all the path:

/pub/backups/arch/archive1

My case:
periko# ll /

drwxrwxrwx   5 root  bacula     512 Aug  2 14:48 opt

periko# ll /opt
total 7478
drwxrwxr-x  2 root    operator      512 Jul 20 01:54 .snap
drwxrwx---  2 bacula  bacula        512 Aug 16 09:26 FileBackups
-rw-r-----  1 bacula  bacula    7618951 Aug  2 15:12 FileFull-0001
drwxr-xr-x  2 bacula  bacula        512 Aug 10 18:32 spool


Hope this help, greetings!!!
