Hello,

Restore is a very interactive process, so rather than running a restore job, one normally uses the restore command in bconsole.  It is also possible to do graphical restores with bat or with Baculum (web GUI).

The restore command in bconsole will prompt you for everything you need, but choosing files to restore is a bit more complicated, so I recommend reading the Restore chapter of the manual.

Best regards,

Kern

Hi All,

I’m new to Bacula and we’ve recently took over a system in this new organization. I have been reading the manuals and started looking after the system we have inherited.

 

I’ve tried searching the archives but I have a few questions that hoping to get clarity on.

 

I attempted to create a new restore job but once submitted it sits waiting on a high priority job to finish.

 

There are a couple of priority 10 backups still running but there was free drive that could have been used by the restore job.

 

According to the manuals, there is a new directive that could be used to ensure mixed priority jobs can run together (Allow Mixed Priority) which the restore job did not have by default.

 

I would have thought that the free drive could be used and therefore doesn’t have to wait and because the restore job is a Priority 1 it should have just started it?

 

Hope someone can help and please excuse the newbie question.

 

Thanks

Chaz
