I just tried to simulate a database crash and disaster recovery and came to the point with restoring database with bacula-console and bootstrap file.
The documentation http://bacula.org/en/dev-manual/Restore_Command.html#database_restore shows the possibility to restore within console so I tried this in favor to the bextract command line tool When it comes to run the restore job it always failed with this error message: 28-Feb 19:30 trac-test-dir JobId 4: Start Restore Job restore_files.2008-02-28_19.29.13 28-Feb 19:30 trac-test-dir JobId 4: Using Device "monthly_file_storage" *messages 28-Feb 19:30 trac-test-sd JobId 4: Warning: acquire.c:181 Error getting Volume info: 1997 Volume "monthly-1" not in catalog. 28-Feb 19:30 trac-test-sd JobId 4: Ready to read from volume "monthly-1" on device "monthly_file_storage" (/home/backups/monthly). 28-Feb 19:30 trac-test-sd JobId 4: Forward spacing Volume "monthly-1" to file:block 0:405987002. 28-Feb 19:30 trac-test-sd JobId 4: End of Volume at file 0 on device "monthly_file_storage" (/home/backups/monthly), Volume "monthly-1" 28-Feb 19:30 trac-test-sd JobId 4: End of all volumes. 28-Feb 19:30 trac-test-dir JobId 4: Error: Unable to get Media record for Volume monthly-1: ERR=sql_get.c:1005 Media record for Volume "monthly-1" not found. which sound resaonable to me as this volume isn't created in database. I don't see any way to create this volume by hand and imo the only way is to use bextract. Can you give me some feedback on it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
