thats all quite normal for a system with a large number of cpu's. on my
48 core boxes, there are more than 700 processes running when its idling
:-) this is just the system managing the IO/etc between the cpus and the
other subsystems.

ok, since my two large full backups just got promoted to Full from Inc, i'd like
to reuse the volumes from the previous Full backups. my understanding from the
manual is to use 'purge volume= from the console. as near as i can
tell
the two Full's in question are contained on two volumes, and thos
i'm still working on getting my backup schedules working on this new T50
library.
at this point, i'm backing up two largish file servers, molbio, moldyn. both
recently had incremental backups upgraded to full because bacula could find no
prior full backup:

daniel, were you able to successfully complete the btape test
command from the bconsole? if it encounters errors it can
suggest modifications to you configuration which may help.

in addition to what others have already indicated, i would suggest
working thru the tape and library section of the manual (i just

good day all, i was doing some moving of cartridges and magazines in my T50,
following
this from the manual:
f your autochanger has barcodes (machine readable tape labels), the task of
informing Bacula is simple. Every time, you change a magazine, or add or remove
a cartridge from the magazine,
here is what was in the log file:
Dec 10 09:34:04 molbio kernel: st0: Current: sense key: Medium Error
Dec 10 09:34:04 molbio kernel: Additional sense: Recorded entity not found
Dec 10 09:34:04 molbio kernel: Info fld=0x1
i've marked it as used, and will see what happens. if it errors out aga
also, i should have noted, this is bacula 2.2.6 with these
patches:
2.2.6-add.patch
2.2.6-backup-restore-socket.patch
2.2.6-queued-msg.patch
2.2.6-status.patch
running on centos 5.

ok, i don't really know what to do with this volume that is marked as error.
this volume, 002045L4,
has the end of one level 0 backup on it and the entire level 0 of a different
client on it as well.
it got its status marked as error when i tried to make a restore from it. its
in the Full pool,
good day all,
the second tape of a large level 0 backup got marked with an error in volstatus:
Pool: Full
+-++---+-+-+--+--+-+--+---+---+-+
| mediaid | volumename | volstatus |
hmmm ...
ok, working with backups on my new T50/LTO4 box. i've got some data backed up
but
when i tried to restore a file today i got this in the console:
07-Dec 11:44 molbio-dir JobId 6: Bacula molbio-dir 2.2.6 (10Nov07): 07-Dec-2007
11:44:31

i have version 2.2.5 server up and running, any reason to not use 2.2.6 clients
with 2.2.5 server?

good day all, i'm working thru getting backups working on my new
library, i labled 10 tapes in the library from inside bconsole
using barcodes, i put them all into the scratch pool:

none of the scsi cards that i had trouble with btape with were low end,

i had somewhat similar problems with btape that i ended up resolving by
modifying the
configuration of my scsi controller. see this thread:
