I am testing an older version of Bacula at a client, and I don't think
it has the script hooks that allow the automatic mounting and unmounting
of USB (or other removable) disks. Also, they are currently using Amanda

Hi,
I don't believe spooling is taking place, as i check periodically during
the job run, and i do not see any data being written to the spool area. I
have checked permissions and they are correct for writing.
Thanks.
Dave.

Do you see spooling taking place? If so, it is probably just not enough
as the other individual said.
As for no speed increase, keep in mind, the backup will actually take
LONGER as part time it's reading from disk and part time it's writing to
tape,
Hello,
Sorry, i don't see any speed increases and the tape still does the stop
and start like it did before i added the data spool options. So it winds up,
runs, then spins down, and does that repeatedly, stops and starts.

Dave,
What DO you see happening? You've given no indication. Is it just not
faster? Do you see the tape stopping and starting? That is an important
piece of information

Greetings,
We have recently begun our rollout of bacula on all our
Windows Servers. We use the HP blade enclosure system for our hardware platform.
These servers do not have a cdrom built in.
When I start the bacula application I receive an error in my
system event log that looks
I believe the maximum and minimum spool sizes are in bytes. Try 1G or more. I
use 2G
at work.

Hello,
I have been using bacula for the last several months, and it has been
running well. Just in the last week I have noticed that bacula isn't
sending email messages, and I am getting this error in bconsole:

We have the same problem. We have some servers
that have more than 2 million files. Theses
servers are taken a lot of time to backup, and
the restores are taking a lot of time too. As we
have seen, it points that the problem is in the
inserts/selects to the mysql server.

How many files? For jobs with 5 millions of files, I wait at most 10 minut
