Bacula works perfectly so far.
The only serious problem I have is End of Tape detection.
E.g. if I need to reboot the backup server, the current tape will be rewinded.
The next backup job then seems not to find the end of the last backup and the
tape will be set to Error state:

thanks Ralf, after playing around with the setting, that was what it
was. It seems to be restoring nowI say seems because the 'st dir'

Any ideas why i

Hi,
I have two external backup drives that I want to incorporate using Bacula, but
have some questions:
1) When making a Full backup, does this replace the expired backup or will this
create a new Volume on the drive?
2) Can you force the Full backup to expire on a weekend?
3) Will auto-pr

Hi
I configured bacula with multiple pools and I assigned some volumes to
each pool before hand.
In the past two differential backups, bacula did not use the volumes
already assigned to the pool, but it took one from the scratch pool,
assigned to the pool and used it.
Could anyone clarify why

Heya,
This response isn't advice, just a statement about how 5.0.1 is working
out for me in a mysql environment. I've read a lot of concerns out
there and like you say, there are issues, but no magic bullet, so I too
am trying to understand the situation so as not to create problems for
myself
Yes, I also understood with the documentation that my configuration should
work.
I have the same problem with 3.0.3, and 5.0.1 versions.
The problem occurs with regular backup jobs, only when scheduled (or ran in
parallel), as manual tests on a single job are ok (volumes are being
recycled, and th

thanks for your answer.
The first stage was with mysql 5.0.77, and works with bacula 3.0.3 without
problems. I have used the same database and server with bacula 5.0.1. The
bacula server + DB is a 3,5 Gb Ram with a Xeon processor.
I have tested my environment installing postgree on the same server

I'm a TSA at a large school board. The server is at my main school, but
because of new policies that came in when we switched over to Active
Directory from Novell I don't have login rights to the fileserver anymore.
This means that I can't install the bacula client.
There is no sane backup solutio

Hello,
I am using disk based backups and bacula-5.0.1.
When the disk gets full up, bacula gets stuck in a state where a job 'is
waiting for a mount request'. Presumably, it wants the system operator to do
something.
However, at this point, the system operator cannot do anything but cancel the

Hello,
I now believe that the 'taking hours' problem that I was having was
down to having additional indexes on my File table, as Eric suggested.
I am using mysql-5.0.45.
I had these indexes:
JobId
JobId, PathId, FilenameId
PathId
FilenameId
Now I have these indexes:
JobId
JobId, PathId, Filena

Thanks a lot Craig, for your answer.
I didn't configure a "maximum volumes" directive, so what I was expecting
Bacula to do is :
- Auto-Recycle a volume if possible, regarding retention periods.
- Automatically create a new one with auto-label feature
I there an implicit maximum volumes limit ?

I am trying to import tape data to bacula catalog using bscan:

localhost s S v /dev/st0
I got this error:
bscan: bscan.c:1245 Could not create JobMedia record.
ERR=sql_create.c:156 Update Media record UPDATE Media SET EndFile
Then I cancel incorrect jobs which started but didn't finished (for example
because wasn't tape in tape drive) I can see this title of these jobs in
View Browser without any information. I think it's no good, because it
prevent us to understanding how many real backups we have.
