Hello, i'm using Bacula 2.0.3 in a Linux FC 7 as server. My idea is to use hard disks as storage device but i want to organize the files (volumes) that bacula create using the client name as part of the filename, and of course, recycle that files in order to not get out of space.
When there is no previus backups, all is ok for the first time. Then, i have found some problems: (1) when the retention period expires, and the volume is marked as Purged, (and Recyle is active), and Bacula run the next job, it use a file/volume but no rename/relabel it on the hard disk. Pool { Name = Full-Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 60 days Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 Label Format = "Full-${Client}-${Day:p/2/0/r}-${Month:p/2/0/r}-${Year}" } So if i have a file/volume named Full-client1-<date..> and the job is for client3,the data of cliente3 is stored in this file. (2) If Bacula starts a job for client1, and client1 is off, Bacula create a file/volume named Full-client1-... in a Append state. The client is off but Bacula create the file. So when next job start for other client, ex: client2 Bacula use this file. Again i have a file named Full-client1... with data from client2. My solution at this time for 1) is disabling recycling, so, Bacula always make a new volume with the correct name. Then, i use a little script that list all purged volumes and delete them from the catalog and from the hard disk. Solution found for 2) is to use generic names for volumes, and dont use client name in them. But i want to map filenames with client names. Any ideas? Any help would be appreciate. Thank you in advance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
