[Bacula-users] Restore problem using several Storages

2012-12-07 Thread ccspro
If you want to use FQDN's in Bacula and do not want to touch your DNS servers you could modify /etc/hosts (assuming you are on a *nix box) to do the job for you. The only gotcha is the remote host changes identity (repurposed, whatever) I use /etc/hosts to avoid DNS look ups, changes are immedi

You can schedule jobs any way and time you like. Note that Name = "job-name" is actually Name = "schedule-name" "schedule-name" is used for the job(s) and not the other way around. I have jobs that run fulls every day, there is more than 1 way to do the same type of schedule you just have to

[Bacula-users] base backups increase backup duration for full backups consi

2012-12-07 Thread ccspro
What is the actual issue here?, I may have missed the actual topic of discussion... Base jobs are there to help reduce the overall file and network bandwidth when you do a full backup, the time wasted is mostly on verifications and database table content linking. On the server end it has to d

This way is one way to do it using /etc/sudoers file. Just make sure you read up on sudo beforehand. /etc/sudoers: # group %httpd ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/bconsole # user httpdALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/bconsole Regardless of which way you go, any outside bconsole access is always dangerous and

Last thing... In some cases I will use a diff fileset for base job only for stuff I know will not change and anything that doesn't need to be there is exempt, stuff like: Log files (assuming these will be out of data by the next base job run) Initial DB dump's Database index/temp files *.pid fil

This is a shot in the dark but on some IBM standalone servers (not blade) disabling MSI did help fix a few issues (recv' queue errors, etc), your mileage may vary on this one. I'm not sure about freebsd but centos it is just setting an option for modprobe after the driver init, example: modprob

[Bacula-users] Trouble getting jobs to run simultaneously

2012-12-07 Thread ccspro
This is a very common issue that must be looked at carefully, this will be a large post and I apologize for it :P Priority levels are very hard to manage/maintain since they can cause jobs to block! Meaning if a job has network (or other) issues and the Bacula server connection doesn't drop but

[Bacula-users] mbuffer as tool for concurrent spool/despool

2012-12-07 Thread Stieneke, Dan
Reading the mail archive, it seems I'm not alone in wanting to see concurrent spooling/despooling. Could we hand off the job to a standalone spooler like mbuffer (http://www.maier-komor.de/mbuffer.html)? For a simple tar to LTO-4 job it makes a tremendous improvement. The Bacuala developers wo
