[Bacula-users] Python in bacula 7 - dynamically assign volume names
OK - I found in the release notes for 7.0.0 The following features or directives have been removed: - Win32 - tray-monitor - wx_console - Removed cats DBI driver - Python So I assume this means python scripting is no longer supported. If this is the case is there an alternative mechanism for dynamically set volume names? ?Label Format doesn't quite do it because it is limited to specific bacula variables or environment variables set during director startup and I need to allocate volume names at run time.

Re: [Bacula-users] Python in bacula 7 - dynamically assign volume names
Thanks for your reply Ana I guess that could work if I required a single Volume but I limit my volume sizes to 1GB (files) for operational reasons and typically require multiple volumes but I don't know in advance how many. I suppose I could create multiple volumes in advance and after delete any unused. I always ensure that there volumes are automatically allocated as required and are never reused between jobs. Thee first one is allocated when the job starts and others as each becomes full. The content of the backup can vary according to some run before scripts and I would like the volume names to reflect that. It was easy to do this with python scripting but we are in the process of upgrading to bacula 7 where that isn't supported. Regards Steve From: Ana Emília M.

Re: [Bacula-users] [Bacula-devel] Python in bacula 7 - dynamically assign volume names
Hi Ana
Its a possibility although the estimate doesn't seem to factor in compression
(not an issue for me) or the volume overhead.
I guess we could always allocate one extra volume to cover this and then at the
end remove any unused volumes.
I tried post processing (renaming the file and catalog entry) but the volume
name is also held internally in the volume headers and checked during restore -
changing this value messes up the checksums which are also checked. I've
currently gone for using extended attributes to provide additional volume
metadata.
Regards
Steve

Hi Steve,
Would you like to try a shell script in a RunBeforeJob directive? Maybe this
should work:
#!/bin/bash
#
# Usage: myscript.sh "MyBackupJob"
JOB=$1
BCONSOLE="/pathtoyourbconsole/bconsole"
MYSTORAGE="myStorage"
MYPOOL="myPool"
BYTES=$(echo estimate job=$JOB | $BCONSOLE)
GBYTES=$(echo ${BYTES#*bytes=} | sed 's/,//g')
VOLS=$((GBYTES/(1024*1024*1024)))
for ((i=0;i<=VOLS;i++) do
echo label storage=$MYSTORAGE volume=$LABEL$i pool=$MYPOOL | $BCONSOLE | grep
"already exists" > /dev/null
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
printf "Volume %s already exists.\n" $LABEL$i
exit 1
fi
done
exit $?
This should be enhanced. And it will be necessary to make sure labels are
unique for the script (maybe using PoolID+MeidaId).
Best regards,
Ana

[Bacula-users] Catalog mismatch between jobfiles and count(file) using a windows client
Hi
Running Bacula 5.2.6 on Linux version 3.5.0-22
Client running on bacula-win64-5.2.10 on Windows Server 2008 (SP1)
We recently added verify jobs to our schedule and have noticed that one of the
jobs always fails. it shows a mismatch between expected and examined files.
Files Expected: 2
Files Examined:1
The backup job itself reports 2 files backed up
FD Files Written: 2
SD Files Written: 2
Running queries against the catalog...
Enter SQL query: select jobfiles from job where jobid = 988;
+--+
| jobfiles |
+--+
|2 |
+--+
Enter SQL query: select count(*) from file where jobid =988;
+---+
| count |
+---+
| 1 |
+---+
The fileset contains a single file
FileSet {
Name = "zmail-delta"
Include {
Options {
signature = MD5
compression = GZIP
aclsupport = yes
}
File = "E:/WindowsImageBackup.delta"
}
}
I believe this file is being backed up ok but would like to use the verify job.
Any ideas? All our other backup and verify jobs work fine.
