[Bacula-users] Bacula RPMS without gconsole
Hello, I reviewed current bacula .spec file and see that build without gconsole is almost possible. There is already gconsole macro just it is tied with rh7 now. And from review it looks like only BuildRequires sections have to me modified to achieve build without gconsole. BTW why ORBit-devel is needed for rh7 build without gconsole? I'm interested because I need to rebuild RPMs for RHEL3, RHEL4, RHEL4.x86_64, RH7 and build requires too many Gnome libraries I do not have on servers and I'd like to avoid to install. Even on build servers. Mindaugas --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!

[Bacula-users] Bacula RPMs without gconsole (patch)
Hello, Attached patch for bacula.spec file to be able to build without gconsole (build_gconsole define). Then server/client build requires much fewer gnome and other needed RPMs installed. Questions and notices: - I think "BuildRequires: glibc-devel" can be removed because anyway on both RHEL3 and RHEL4 gcc requires glibc-devel to be installed. Why to make .spec file too complicated? - What for is "BuildRequires: ORBit-devel" for rh7? Since anyway later it is noted that now gconsole is only available for Gnome2? - Current patch reverts default build behaviour to not build gconsole. To retain current behaviour maybe nobuild_gconsole define would be more reasonable. Mindaugas nogconsole.patch Description: Binary data

Follow up notice. It would be worth to include "BuildRequires: gcc-c++" to the .spec file. Also on all rh7, rhel3 and rhel4 gcc-c++ requires both glibc-devel and gcc to be installed. I am suggesting because I just spent couple of hours searching why rpmbuild is failing on one machine while trying to build mtx in the process. The reason was - gcc was not installed and there was no clear indication that I am so stupid. :) Mindaugas --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

OK. And I added also gcc-g++ to BuildRequires. I already explained that without it installed rpmbuild fails with non obvious error messages. > > - What for is "BuildRequires: ORBit-devel" for rh7?

Done. Please apply the attached patch. To build without gconsole define nobuild_gconsole in rpmbuild. For the test successfully built bacula without gconsole on centos4-i386 and centos4-x86_64.

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula wants tape not currently in changer
> Does your autochanger normally change tapes OK? Has it definitely worked > since you upgraded to 1.38.8? Yes it worked normally. Also I did not encounter such behaviour in version 1.36.x I used before. > Bacula looks for the appendable volume with the lowest media ID which is > why it asked for the one it did. > > As you pointed out tho, it should be preferring volumes with inchanger = > 1 over those with inchanger = 0. Yes. But for some reason it doesn't. One more maybe related issue. If I run "update slots" after changing tapes in magazine it only sets inchanger flag for added tapes to 1. But command does not reset inchanger flag to 0 for the removed tapes. So I am running commands "sqlquery update media set inchanger=0;" and "update slots" after I change tapes in autochanger.

Aha. There may be the issue. As you see I have 4 storage resources defined for the same autochanger. I need it because my backup machine is connected to 4 different VLANs and for each VLAN director has to send different SD IP address to client. Such schema worked it 1.36.x. Maybe I have to change something in current version?

OK. So how to resolve this issue? Maybe in 1.38 something new was introduced to let director send correct SD IP address? Mindaugas --- Using Tomcat but need to do more?

There are features in Bacula for dealing with > multiple addresses. If you don't understand what you read, please ask the You mean SDAddresses in Storage configuration? But it only specifies on what interface and port to listen. And I need that director sends different IP to clients in different VLANs. Also I raised this problem before, when I was setuping new instalation with version 1.36. And the list came to solution with multiple Storage definitions in bacula-dir.conf. > list for support. I am a programmer. They are better at dealing with these > kinds of questions than I am. I have some programming background too. :) So I understand documentation without problems. I think that something like SDAddress in Job configuration would solve my issue. It looks like that putting name into Address field and resolving this name via /etc/hosts file works too but it decentralizes backup management. If I'll change SD configuration or IP address then it won't be easy to edit hosts file on all 30+ servers. Mindaugas --- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

[Bacula-users] Multihomed backup server
Hello, Few days ago I wrote about the problem but I would like to discuss about possible solutions. Description: I have backup server which is connected to multiple VLANs and has several IP addresses. Director sends to clients Address from Storage resource where clients has to connect. Problem is that clients from different VLANs has to connect to different IP addresses. In 1.36 to resolve the issue I had several Storage resources (one per VLAN) and clients were using Address from the coresponding Storage resource. But in 1.38 support for multiple autochangers was added and this method no longer works. Kern suggested to put something like "bacula-sd" in Address field and then put appropriate IP address in /etc/hosts file of the client. I modified my configuration in this way and everything works. But I do not like such solution because it decentralizes management. What if IP of my SD will change? Also I do not have full control of the hosts file of several Windows machines - domain controller is overwriting hosts file and I cannot change this behaviour. Maybe some other way exists? If not I would like to suggest adding SDAddress (and maybe SDPort?) configuration settings to Job resource. Then I could control where job (and client) should connect for backup.

[Bacula-users] About backup speed in reports
Hello, Now in reports that Bacula sends after backup Rate is calculated simply dividing SD Bytes written by Elapsed time. But since I'm using data spooling and doing multiple backups at the same time this number means absolutely nothing. It would be much more useful to get another two numbers: - data spool rate. Which would indicate how fast data was received from FD to SD spool. - write to tape rate. How fast data was despooled to tape drive. Then first number would show network and spool drive performance and usage. Second one will show if my hardware is capable to feed tape drive fast enough that drive does not have to stop tape. Such stops/starts reduces not only backup speed but also tape life dramatically. I think I remember some thoughts from Kern about implementing this ;). Back from the end of 2004.

I did quick glance into the code and understood that it isn't so trivial. There is no such properties in JCR class as spool_end and despool_begin.
