Hey guys,
I was playing around with the VirtualFull feature in Bacula (running 7.0.3)
in a configuration that has a Full, Differential and Incremental Pools as
well as a Default pool. I was following the example given in the
documentation but have the intention to extending it with VirtualFull to
accommodate my use-case.
http://www.bacula.org/5.2.x-manuals/en/main/main/Automated_Disk_Backup.html
Now first of all the example from the documentation doesn't define a
Default pool and the director won't even start. I've therefore created a
default pool with as little configuration as possible.
The issues when I try to run a VirtualFull for my Backup Job from the
console is that it responds with: "No Next Pool specification found in Pool
"Default"." If I specify the NextPool to be the FullPool it complains
about: "Fatal error: No Storage specification found in Next Pool"
For the different backup levels I have defined which pool to use in the Job
definition.
Full Backup Pool = Xylou-Full
Incremental Backup Pool = Xylou-Incr
Differential Backup Pool = Xylou-Diff
It seems there is no VirtualFullBackupPool key (yet?), but I also don't see
why the VirtualFull could not happen in the Full Backup Pool.
I was under the impression that the VirtualFull would not need a separate
pool anymore in Bacula 7.0.x and am really hoping to work around
implementing a virtual tape library or migration jobs after a VirtualFull
run so any advice how I can make VirtualFulls working without those would
be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
