[Bacula-users] Windows client always backs up zero byte files and empty directories

2014-09-18 Thread Dan Ragle
Think I'm missing something in my setup here, but don't know what. I'm running director and sd version 7.0.5 on a CentOS box, and backing up (among others) a Windows Vista Home Premium client (which is running 5.2.10). I'm finding that the incremental saves for the Windows client ALWAYS include

Still having issues (I took 10 days off for another project). I've tried a lot of things: I added bacula to the tape group, chown bacula:tape /dev/nst* & /dev/sg*, I've ran the SELinux recommend: [root@bacula1 sbin]# grep bacula-sd /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol

Hey everyone, I am trying to see if anyone has done work on the platforms/osx code base. I am wanting to build a dmg client so I can distribute it within my network. The problem is, it looks like it has been built for 10.4 which will not work since this is still PPC code. I have tried to get it

Fair enough. I used a one-liner of bash to pre-create of my volume files and fill the barcodes file, then used bconsole's label command to label all of them in one go. For example on my 1700-vol storage array, this was: bash: for f in {1..1700}; do dd if=/dev/zero of=$root/storage/$hostname-a

I considered a similar approach at first, but after asking other users in this network, how long they want to keep backups, we decided on a rather long time period of multiple years. Considering that and the fact that we want to use one Volume per month, it would be a lot of work to pre-label e

Hello again. Now I actually had to wonder: Is there no way to have bacula do both labeling AND switching Volumes automatically? Or do I just misunderstand? Regards, Florian S. Am 11.09.2014 um 09:33 schrieb Roberts, Ben: > Hi Florian, > > >> Is using one Device Resource in the Storage daemon en

Re: [Bacula-users] How to handle many storage devices?

2014-09-18 Thread Roberts, Ben
Hi Florian, You would want a minimum of one Storage Device per distinct Media Type for a reserved restore device and there's no requirement to have a reserved restore device per client/job/etc so a single restore device would be OK. You can have additional reserved restore devices but unless yo
