Hi, John. At this point, I am not in a position to post my entire bacula-dir.conf file. When my boss returns from sick leave, perhaps he will change his mind. I do, however, have these snippets from the file. I hope that's enough at this time. === 8< === 8< === JobDefs { Name = "DefaultJob" Enabled = yes Type = Backup Level = Incremental Client = BackupServer-fd FileSet = "Unix Fileset" Schedule = "SecondWeeklyCycle" Storage = File Messages = Standard Pool = IncPool Full Backup Pool = FPool Differential Backup Pool = DiffPool Incremental Backup Pool = IncPool Priority = 10 } Job { Name = "GreatPlains-Backup" Client = GreatPlains-fd JobDefs = "DefaultJob" FileSet = "GP Set" Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/GreatPlainsBackup.bsr" } Job { Name = "BackupCatalog" JobDefs = "DefaultJob" Level = Full FileSet="Catalog" Schedule = "WeeklyCycleAfterBackup" # This creates an ASCII copy of the catalog # WARNING! # Ubuntu uses make_catalog_backup_awk script for # security reasons # Replace <CatalogName> with the real Catalog name RunBeforeJob = "/usr/bin/awk -f /etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup_awk -v cat1=MyCatalog /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf" # This deletes the copy of the catalog RunAfterJob = "/etc/bacula/scripts/delete_catalog_backup" Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/BackupCatalog.bsr" Priority = 11 # run after main backup } Pool { Name = FPool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 90 days # one year Label Format = "${JobName}-${Level}" } FileSet { Name = "GP Set" Enable VSS = yes Include { Options { signature = MD5 compression = GZIP } File="C:/" File="D:/" } } === 8< === 8< === What it is doing that is weird: There are 6 other backup jobs in addition to the GreatPlains-Backup job listed above. The other backups all work correctly. However, the GreatPlains-Backup job: (*) did not name the Volume correctly GreatPlains-Backup.2011-01-29_23.05.00_08 instead of GreatPlains-Backup.2011-01-29_23.05.00_08-Full (*) failed to automatically create the Volume that it needed. I had to go into the bacula-console and label a volume, after which it immediately began processing the backup. Further, the "BackupCatalog" job appears to be using the names of random jobs for its volumes, rather than its own name: GreatPlains-Backup.2011-01-29_23.05.00_08-Full Files-Backup.2011-01-29_23.05.00_07-Full instead of BackupCatalog.2011-01-30_18.52.19_06-Full --hymie! http://lactose.homelinux.net/~hymie hy...@lactose.homelinux.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
