Hello,
We are using Bacula for several months now as our primary backup solution,
yet we are still struggling to get the automatic backup to tape working.
I temporarily disabled them and ran the backup jobs manually. I inserted an
empty
tape and labelled it 'Maandag'. The jobs started and were doing the backup when
I left the office,
but the next day I got this error:
07-Jun 18:15 backup01-dir JobId 267: Start Backup JobId 267,
Job=tsi-vms01.2010-06-07_18.15.49_04
07-Jun 18:15 backup01-dir JobId 267: Using Device "Tape^ADevice"
07-Jun 18:15 backup01-sd JobId 267: Wrote label to prelabeled Volume "Maandag"
on device "Tape Device" (/dev/st0)
08-Jun 00:20 tsi-vms01-fd JobId 267: Fatal error: backup.c:892 Network send
error to SD. ERR=Input/output error
08-Jun 00:16 backup01-sd JobId 267: Fatal error: append.c:242 Network error
reading from FD. ERR=No data available
08-Jun 00:16 backup01-sd JobId 267: Job write elapsed time = 06:00:19, Transfer
rate = 19.54 M Bytes/second
The job for backing up our fileserver has obviously failed, but I can't figure
out why from this error
message I got in the logs. Even worse, other jobs after it also failed because
of this message:
08-Jun 00:16 backup01-sd JobId 269: Volume "Maandag" previously written, moving
to end of data.
08-Jun 00:16 backup01-sd JobId 269: Error: Bacula cannot write on tape Volume
"Maandag" because:
The number of files mismatch! Volume=423 Catalog=422
08-Jun 00:16 backup01-sd JobId 269: Marking Volume "Maandag" in Error in
Catalog.
08-Jun 00:16 backup01-sd JobId 269: Job tsi-mail01.2010-06-07_18.17.35_06 is
waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
Storage: "Tape Device" (/dev/st0)
Pool: DayPool
Media type: IBM
What is going on exactly? I didn't find anything strange in the dmesg or syslog
of the bacula machine (which
runs bacula-dir and bacula-sd) or the fileserver with bacula-fd.
I hope somebody can help us out. Thanks in advance,
