[Bacula-users] Incremental promotion to full for queued jobs

Re: [Bacula-users] Autochangers over Fiber Channel

2007-10-26 Thread Peter Buschman
Yes. FCP (FibreChannel Protocol) is a derivative of the SCSI command set and looks just like it from the operating system's perspective. Odds are the same high-level SCSI driver in the Linux kernel would be used in both cases (SCSI & Fiber) so mtx will probably work out-of-the-box if you have

Try the current version of mtx-changer from SVN. I fixed a bug a few weeks ago that was preventing the drive ready detection from working properly (hence, no wait loop after issuing a tape load command). A sleep statement in the right place would have cured the symptom but not the root cause

The counter-argument to this is, of course, that the enterprise db server is often the best equipped and configured in terms of high-availability, clustering, and replication, making it the system least likely to go down in the first place ;-) Naturally, you don't want that DB server to be a d

I have to agree with Joao (apologies for spelling problems due to Latin alphabet). The choice of something as trivial as a catalog database can be a complete show-stopper for many applications. I have seen this when deploying a solution that met all customer requirements, but which was SQL

Batula is good. Bat isn't - and is unusable on MS-based systems in any case. I'll bite. Why is bat unusable on MS systems? I haven't heard anyone propose using .bat as an extension, which would certainly be a bad idea, but I don't know of any MS system programs that go by the name of bat.
