Well I got surprise this weekend (6am Saturday) when a raid card failed and we corrupted a mirror on our director server.
I reinstalled the OS, went to my storage server and used bextract to pull out the needed files for the director server. This files include the .bsr files, and my catalog backups. Of course I got all my bacula conf files, contents of /etc and so on. So I install bacula, install mysql, start both up, create new bacula tables, login to bconsole, everything is there, wonderful. I am now trying to get my catalog restored without success. I had previously kept SQL dumps but had abandoned them long ago when all other bacula restores had worked so well. I checked the chapters on recovery, specifically here, http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Restore_Command.html#database_restore Seems easy enough, and is exactly what I want to do, however I can't make heads or tails of this line, "You do so by entering the bf run command in the console and selecting the restore job". What is the "bf run" command because my console knows nothing about that? I have Cat-0001 and BackupCatalog.bsr on the server, just not sure how to use them at this point. Am I reading something wrong? I am on FreeBSD 5.4, Bacula 2.0.3, mysql 5.0.2 Thanks, DAve -- Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos for other non-international holidays, but nothing for Veterans? Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
