[Bacula-users] Windows agent status window missing

Hi, in the Windows FD version 2.2.6 you got a systray icon which when doubleclicked showed the job status, with Windows FD version 2.4.3 you just get the service running in the background. Was this functionality stripped between 2.2.6 and 2.4.3 or is there a way to make it appear again? I actuall

[Bacula-users] Concurrent backups to disk

Hi, according to the manual, you need to create more devices for concurrent backups to disk since Bacula regards everything as tapes, so a single Device will block until each individual job to it is finished. I'm a little unclear on what new sections I need though, presumable a number of 'Device

[Bacula-users] Restoring encrypted backups with Recovery CD

Can someone please tell me whether I can use the Rescue CD to restore encrypted backups? According to the docs the precompiled/packaged versions don't have OpenSSL support but it doesn't say for the Knoppix subdir. Since all my backups are encrypted, how do I do a bare metal recovery if there is

[Bacula-users] Can Bacula-rescue 2.2.6 Knoppix use OpenSSL?

If I sent an empty mail previously my apologies, pushed the wrong button. Since I'm working with remote machines I'm looking at the Knoppix CD with ISO image creation instead of the generic Linux one which seems to want to burn a physical disc. The documentation of bacula-rescue says not to use O

[Bacula-users] MaxVolBytes 1?

Hi, after changing the pool settings for a volume (from 365days retention to 2, lowering the number of bytes to 1 GB max etc.) and doing an 'update volume', the output of 'llist volume' shows MaxVolBytes: 1 where it was MaxVolBytes: 0 before. I would have expected the 1,xxx,xxx,xxx number I set i

[Bacula-users] How to purge files from a volume?

If I want to use a single volume per client, how do I delete old backups from it in a FIFO manner without using dates or size? Can Bacula seek back and resize a volume at all or does it need to recycle it? What I would like to do is to keep for example 2 full backups, and as soon as the third is m
