[Bacula-users] MagStor M1000-L9SAS tape library

2024-02-22 Thread Pollard, Jim
By chance is anyone out there able to verify that the MagStor M1000 tape library works with Bacula? I’m already using the LTO-9 HH SAS Drive and that works fine but I have the chance to possibly upgrade the system to a library and I can’t pass that up. : ) Thanks for any nudges in the right di

I’m running into a problem where jobs are being canceled as duplicates of a job currently running. Trying to find the happy medium with correct number of volumes to keep the disk from filling up but it looks like the number of volumes being created is so high that jobs are waiting for appendabl

I’m asking because I’m working out the correct combination of days I can retain volumes and # of volumes that can be created before recycling begins. But I notice that after changing the bacula-dir.conf file all of my current volumes still have their original Volume Retention set for 90 days wh

I’ve inherited this system so I’m piecing things together. It looks like bacula-sd had previously been running as root. The current permissions on the /var/backups directory and volumes are root:root. Running systemctl start bacula-sd seems to be running as bacula:tape. Saw errors in console

I’m S close. I can see there is a tape job waiting for an appendable Volume. How do I tell which tape slot contains the media that needs to be changed? Jim ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforg

I just inherited this Bacula setup at a new position. The backups are running to disk and to tape. The disk is currently full. I’m looking at the list of jobs that have run and see that there are fulls that completed, incrementals that have completed, and then differentials. Just to make abs
