Hello *, I've a problem with my 1st bacula installation (quite normal I suppose). I'm running bacula 2.0.3 on Debian Etch/i386. It has to backup a single folder on DVD, classic full/monthly, diff/weekly, incr/daily schema.
When I enter bacula-console I try a test backup with the "run" command. bacula-sd closes the DVD tray but never starts writing. If I ask "status 2" I get (among other things): Device status: Device "DVD-Writer" (/dev/hdb) is not open. Device is being initialized. for a few seconds, and then: Running Jobs: Writing: Incremental Backup job Client1 JobId=13 Volume="Backup-0003" pool="Default" device=""DVD-Writer" (/dev/hdb)" spooling=0 despooling=0 despool_wait=0 Files=0 Bytes=0 Bytes/sec=0 FDReadSeqNo=6 in_msg=6 out_msg=4 fd=6 [...] Device status: Device "DVD-Writer" (/dev/hdb) is not open. Device is BLOCKED waiting for media. But I've put in bacula-sd.conf : Device { Name = "DVD-Writer" Media Type = DVD Archive Device = /dev/hdb LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media Random Access = Yes; AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it RemovableMedia = yes; AlwaysOpen = no; MaximumPartSize = 800M; RequiresMount = yes; MountPoint = /media/cdrom0; # MountCommand = "/bin/mount -t iso9660 -o ro %a %m"; MountCommand = "/bin/mount %a"; UnmountCommand = "/bin/umount %m"; SpoolDirectory = /tmp/backup; WritePartCommand = "/etc/bacula/dvd-handler %a write %e %v" FreeSpaceCommand = "/etc/bacula/dvd-handler %a free" } so the SD should label the media on my behalf, right? -- Virtual Bit di Lucio Crusca via Isonzo, 5 10069 - Villar Perosa (TO) http://virtualbit.sulweb.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
