hi! i am looking for a script that would re-sync my volumes and the catalog as it is stored in the database (postgresql 8.1 in my case).
The volumes are full, so i try to get rid of some bloated, unnecessary backups. after some manual probing and fiddling with the database, and some auto-pruning (only the jobs, with the files still there even though i thought they should get pruned just the same, as i configured it to do that) i now have a catalog out of sync with the volumes, which are still full. New backups fail with a "full" error. so i want to get rid of all data on the volumes that is not referneced in the catalog anymore. furthermore i want to be able to get rid of entries in the catalog where the files are not presents in the volumes anymore. i do backups to disk-storage, so the script could do a find and then go over the database and try to sync that with the files present, and then remove the orphaned files. i am not yet familiar with the layout of the database but i dont imagine it would be so complicated to do. i imagine i have to watch out for references to files in the catalog when removing orphans. where would those be found and what should i do about it? /andreas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
