Re: [Bacula-users] Maximum concurrency

2010-08-23 Thread Derek Harkness
To get get maximum concurrency you need 1 storage device per pool. Only one pool on a storage device can be open at a time. The other approach is to have multiple jobs use the same pool with a high enough maximum concurrency set. Multiple jobs will be written to the pool no waiting. Derek O

Re: [Bacula-users] Compress speed

A complete backup takes several days so I didn't run the compressed backup to completion. But if I use examined files as a gauge it's wasn't as bad as 8x. It took 16 hours to process 300,000+ files with compression enabled and only 4 with it disabled. Derek On Jul 1, 2010, at 18:57, "James

[Bacula-users] Compress speed

2010-07-01 Thread Derek Harkness
I've seen a very significant slow in backup speed by enabling gzip compress, 32MB/s (without gzip) vs 4MB/s (with gzip). The server I'm backing up has lots of CPU 24x2.6ghz so the compression time shouldn't be a huge factor. Is this normal for bacula or is there an optimization I'm missing.

I'm getting the following error between one of my clients and the storage server. All my other clients have been able to backup just fine to this storage device but this one client always returns the Connection reset by peer. I've adjusted the heartbeat and the keepalive setting on the client .

Re: [Bacula-users] Maximum Concurrent Jobs

2010-06-04 Thread Derek Harkness
I run into a similar problem and here's what I did. 1) Make sure your autochanger entry has all the drives list in the Device line. Device = Drive-1, Drive-2, ... 2) In the Storage entry in bacula-dir.conf. Make sure you have a Maximum Concurrent Jobs entry, 20 seems like a good number. Stora

[Bacula-users] Attribute spooling question

2010-06-02 Thread Derek Harkness
Hi all, I have a backup job that's using data spooling. The job successful despooled all the data to tape but the bacula-director crashed before the attributes could get put into the database. Is this information lost? Is there anyway to get the attributes into the catalog without rerunning
