Hi Bacula Enthausiasts, On 28 december I sent in this mailing that I had some backups which were not able to restore. Today I was sick of it that I could not trust my backups for 100%. I read my log files for what could happening and I found out the following:
I have sometimes some backups starting at exact the same moment (3 sec in diff). And they use the same Volume (Vol1277), which is strange because I have the option: UseVolumeOnce = yes. Max connections is for the Director: 3 Max connections is for the single Storage Deamon: 20 The quick option is only to allow 1 single backup at the time. (Which I applied today, I guess it will work.) I hope sameone has a better approuch because the first of the month I have some serious backups which need some time, I like to run these side by side. # File Pool definition, used for 1 month backups Pool { Name = File Action On Purge = Truncate Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 32 days LabelFormat = "Vol" UseVolumeOnce = yes } Log: Backup Level: Incremental, since=2014-01-27 02:07:19 Client: "client1.company1.nl" 2.4.4 (28Dec08) x86_64-pc-linux-gnu,debian,lenny/sid FileSet: "client1.company1.nl" 2013-07-10 01:55:05 Pool: "File" (From Job resource) Catalog: "MyCatalog" (From Client resource) Storage: "File" (From Job resource) Scheduled time: 28-Jan-2014 01:55:00 Start time: 28-Jan-2014 02:06:16 End time: 28-Jan-2014 02:06:26 Elapsed time: 10 secs Priority: 10 FD Files Written: 14 SD Files Written: 14 FD Bytes Written: 11,919,971 (11.91 MB) SD Bytes Written: 11,921,587 (11.92 MB) Rate: 1192.0 KB/s Software Compression: None VSS: no Encryption: no Accurate: no Volume name(s): Vol0137|Vol1277 -- Backup Level: Incremental, since=2014-01-27 02:07:54 Client: "client4.company2.nl" 5.2.6 (21Feb12) x86_64-pc-linux-gnu,debian,7.0 FileSet: "company2" 2013-07-10 01:55:00 Pool: "File" (From Job resource) Catalog: "MyCatalog" (From Client resource) Storage: "File" (From Job resource) Scheduled time: 28-Jan-2014 01:55:00 Start time: 28-Jan-2014 02:06:14 End time: 28-Jan-2014 02:06:33 Elapsed time: 19 secs Priority: 10 FD Files Written: 139 SD Files Written: 139 FD Bytes Written: 273,321,392 (273.3 MB) SD Bytes Written: 273,342,003 (273.3 MB) Rate: 14385.3 KB/s Software Compression: None VSS: no Encryption: no Accurate: no Volume name(s): Vol2009|Vol1277 -- Backup Level: Incremental, since=2014-01-27 02:07:37 Client: "client3.company2.nl" 5.2.6 (21Feb12) x86_64-pc-linux-gnu,debian,7.0 FileSet: "company2" 2013-07-10 01:55:00 Pool: "File" (From Job resource) Catalog: "MyCatalog" (From Client resource) Storage: "File" (From Job resource) Scheduled time: 28-Jan-2014 01:55:00 Start time: 28-Jan-2014 02:06:17 End time: 28-Jan-2014 02:06:42 Elapsed time: 25 secs Priority: 10 FD Files Written: 771 SD Files Written: 771 FD Bytes Written: 347,492,328 (347.4 MB) SD Bytes Written: 347,611,881 (347.6 MB) Rate: 13899.7 KB/s Software Compression: None VSS: no Encryption: no Accurate: no Volume name(s): Vol1277 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WatchGuard Dimension instantly turns raw network data into actionable security intelligence.
