Re: [Bacula-users] Need help understanding and applying some Retention/Recycle concepts

Hi Shon, The question is that bacula needs more than just the "retention period" to recycle volumes when you´re using disk volumes and automatic labeling. If you don´t have a limit of volumes in your pool or something else that tells bacula to not label any more volumes, just use an older one that

Hi Mingus, When using disk volumes with automatic volume labeling, you have to tell bacula when to stop labeling new volumes... You can do it limiting the number of volumes in the pool. Also, you can try Recycle Oldest Volume = yes. Pasted from http://www.bacula.org/en/dev-manual/main/main/Basic_V

Hi, It seems to me that you are not using a client at your director host to backup your catalog: - your "Job=BackupCatalog2" is using "Client: "bacula2-fd" 5.0.0 (26Jan10)" and this is not the director host, because you said that had a "my os centos 6.3 and bacula 5.2.13" host and bacula2-fd is a

Hello! About your update slots command bellow it works as expected. Since you don´t have the volumes in catalog, as you said. You should label them: 1) with mtx or mtx-changer script load each tape into drive and do: 1.a) mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind 1.b) mt -f /dev/nst0 weof 2) after unloading the t

Yes, I would prefer to have a long list of "/usr". "/etc", "/var", etc. And have "onefs = yes". This way avoids a lot of trouble, including "infinite loop recursing filesystems", like states in manual... If you have onefs set to no, you have to be very carefull about excluding directories to avoid

Have you tried configuring onefs = no? "If you wish to backup multiple filesystems, you can explicitly list each filesystem you want saved. Otherwise, if you set the onefs option to *no*, Bacula will backup all mounted file systems (i.e. traverse mount points) that are found within the *FileSet*."

Hi Iban, I´m afraid you have wrong configuration on your bacula-dir.conf about storages... I think you should have only one definition for storage, your autochanger named TSM3500. That way bacula will find correctly your storage device, the TSM3500, and the mtx-changer script and other configurati
