Hi there,
I have been using Bacula happily now for several years, and have just
now run across a restore problem that I hadn't seen before, and was
wondering if anyone can suggest an alternate method or workaround for
me.
I am attempting to restore 3 little files from a particular backup job.
This is not our largest backup at 68Gb (I have restored successfully
from 350Gb jobs before), but it may be the one containing the highest
number of files (over 3 million) - and I have never tried a restore from
it before.
Basically, I am restoring from the console, selecting the latest backup
before a specified date. The console tells me which tape it needs, and
then proceeds to build the directory tree. After about 4 or 5 hours I
have 16 + signs, and it's still working hard. I tried this last week
and left it overnight, and it still hadn't completed building the tree.
Is there any way I can specifically list the files I want restored, and
skip the "tree building" step?
Thinking that my backup server may have been short on memory, I
re-installed the director on a virtual machine with 2GB of memory, but
it doesn't appear to have helped.
Thanks for any help you can offer!
