Hi and greetings from germany,
i hope someone has an idea why i always run in trouble using the
„migration“-job in bacula 11.06.
I am running Bacula 11.0.6 with Baculum GUI on Ubuntu Server 20.04 (latest
updates/patches installed) with a single HP LTO5 drive on an old HP Proliant
ML350 G6.
The server was freshly installed from the 11.06 DEB-packets available today.
I am able to backup my windows-os clients/files directly to the bacula file
storage and directly to LTO5 tape storage without a hassle.
So direct backup from some windows-os based servers to disk, or direct backup
to tape works like a charm.
But when i try to migrate a former disk backup to a tape backup the whole
process does not even start and i don’t see why that is.
The „messages“ protocol states it is using the device „LTO5-Drive1“ to READ
(what is kind of strange, because the migration job should use the LTO drive to
WRITE and use a file-device for read). - After 15 minutes waiting there is the
message „Fatal error: Storage daemon didn’t accept Device „LTO5-Drive1“
command.“ (The job queues forever, because the migration never comes to an
end/never aborts. I have to restart all processes/the server)
Before installing this on Ubuntu Server 20.04 i had another bacula 11.06 setup
running under Debian 11. -> And i had exactly the same problem there, too. That
was the reason why i formated my whole debian 11 server setup and started from
scratch with ubuntu 20.04, running now in exactly the same „migration-job“
problem as i did on debian 11 before.
So i wasn’t able to get bacula „migration“-jobs running on two different setups
(debian 11/ubuntu 20.04) so far. ☹
As i am a bacula newbie, fiddling around with it only for about a week, i
struggle to find the cause for this misbehavior.
Here are some sniplets from my bacula director config:
Storage {
Name = "File1"
SdPort = 9103
Address = "bacula-backup"
Password = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
Device = "FileChgr1"
MediaType = "File1"
Autochanger = "File1"
MaximumConcurrentJobs = 10
}
Storage {
Name = "Tape1"
SdPort = 9103
Address = "bacula-backup"
Password = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
Device = "LTO5-Drive1"
MediaType = "LTO3000"
MaximumConcurrentJobs = 10
}
Pool {
Name = "File"
PoolType = "Backup"
LabelFormat = "Vol-"
MaximumVolumes = 100
MaximumVolumeBytes = 53687091200
VolumeRetention = 31536000
AutoPrune = yes
Recycle = yes
}
Pool {
Name = "Tape1"
PoolType = "Backup"
LabelFormat = "Tape-"
LabelType = "Bacula"
MaximumVolumes = 100
MaximumVolumeBytes = 53687091200
VolumeRetention = 31536000
Storage = "Tape1"
AutoPrune = yes
Recycle = yes
Catalog = "MyCatalog"
}
Job {
Name = "Migrate-to-tape"
Type = "Migrate"
NextPool = "Tape1"
Fileset = "i7-11700k-fileset"
JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
SelectionPattern = "i7-11700k-backupjob"
SelectionType = "Job"
}
And here storage-daemon config sniplets:
Device {
Name = "FileChgr1-Dev1"
MediaType = "File1"
ArchiveDevice = "/media/backups"
RemovableMedia = no
RandomAccess = yes
AutomaticMount = yes
LabelMedia = yes
AlwaysOpen = no
MaximumConcurrentJobs = 5
}
Device {
Name = "LTO5-Drive1"
MediaType = "LTO3000"
DeviceType = "Tape"
ArchiveDevice = "/dev/nst0"
RemovableMedia = yes
RandomAccess = no
AutomaticMount = yes
LabelMedia = yes
AlwaysOpen = yes
MaximumFileSize = 10000000000
MaximumConcurrentJobs = 5
LabelType = "Bacula"
}
Thank you very much in advance
Thomas
