Hi:
I've got a problem configuring my backup with Bacula 2.2.1.
My config is more or less following the "Daily Tape Rotation" scheme
described in the "Backup Strategies" in the manual. I've got four jobs
configured nightly at 11:00 with different priorities (three clients and
the backup DB). All works fine until Bacula finds the wrong tape in the
drive due to operator error. If this happens the operator will put in
the correct tape for the next night and do a mount. I would now expect
Bacula to delete the job from last night because "Max Start Delay" time
has passed already and to run the next job following the schedule next
night.
Problem is the jobs are not being deleted from the queue. Bacula will
wait forever for the tape it was missing for last nights job even if the
job is not valid anymore and do no more backup runs. I have to restart
dir and sd and then Bacula picks up the schedule again.
Could somebody give me a hand?
Thanks,
Goetz
The jobs are configured like in this snippet:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Define the main nightly save backup job
#
Job {
Name = "xenserver-full"
Type = Backup
Level = Full
Client = xenserver
FileSet = "Full Set xenserver"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Storage = DLT-VS160
Messages = Standard
Pool = Default
Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/xenserver.bsr"
Max Start Delay = 9h
Priority = 1
}
Job {
Name = "samba-full"
Type = Backup
Level = Full
Client = samba
FileSet = "Full Set samba"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Storage = DLT-VS160
Messages = Standard
Pool = Default
ClientRunBeforeJob = "/etc/init.d/smb stop"
Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/samba.bsr"
ClientRunAfterJob = "/etc/init.d/smb start"
Max Start Delay = 9h
Priority = 2
}
