Good morning, I'm running Bacula 5 on a Debian server and mostly, it's bloody brilliant. However, there are four servers in two locations outside of our data centre that I'm having massive problems backing up.
One location needs to backup 10 files with a total size of about 500mb, but usually it errors out at about 80mb, often after only 5. The other location has three of the servers, server2 has two different backup sets, one for the config files and web data and another for the images that runs every other day 92353 Full 1,513 1.418 G OK 02-Aug-11 19:30 server1 92555 Incr 37 1.129 G OK 03-Aug-11 12:07 server1 92617 Full 95,122 416.1 M OK 03-Aug-11 10:56 server2-set1 92807 Incr 608 3.865 M OK 04-Aug-11 06:42 server2-set1 92619 Full 1,384 169.6 M OK 03-Aug-11 08:31 server3 92658 Incr 6 168.6 M OK 03-Aug-11 11:29 server3 92472 Full 101,399 4.064 G Error 04-Aug-11 11:34 server2-set2 Server1 backs up fine, as does server2-set1, although really slowly, you're getting 1, maybe 2mb per minute. Server3 backs up about half the time and server2 set2 has never managed a full backup, it took 2 days to get that 4Gb transferred, it usually craps out sooner than that. All of these servers are the same spec, they're not great but not terrible either and we have plenty of the same spec in the data centre that back up fine. The first server is windows, the others are Ubuntu. Now I know for a fact that the internal networks in these locations are atrocious and they're not getting fixed any time soon, also both of them are less than half a mile from the data centre and incidentally we back up several Gb a day from the other side of the planet without issue. Anyways, is there anything I can do to mitigate the effects of these really crappy networks? I've got heartbeat set to 60 but it doesn't seem to have helped much +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by tibus.supp...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA The must-attend event for mobile developers.
