Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring a file from an unknown backup

If you have access to a baculum or bacularis web console you can graphically browse through files on a job by job basis. Start a restore, click through. A little slow, in my experience, but if you are totally lost trying to navigate bconsole and find what you need to that way, maybe this will help.

In my experience with Bacula 13.0.3 in bconsole you can do restore option 2 "search for a filename" give it a filename and it will tell you every job that filename has ever been backed up in, with complete path option 11 "enter a list of directories to restore for found jobs" also looks juicy. Yo

As far as I know you should only need one restore job. Have you tried specifying which level to actually use when you did the restore? Like in bconsole I think you'd add "level=incremental" to the end of the restore command. In baculum/bacularis you would click the drop-down box where it said "ful

Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring to different host

Hello, Concerning SELinux: I tried running with SELinux for awhile quite a long time ago, and it turned out to be more painful than useful, so I turned it off. I had turned it on to learn it and to write Bacula policies, but never got that far. That said: since Bacula is part of the RedHat rele

Re: [Bacula-users] Restoring to different host

A full solution would be to write an selinux policy, either on your own (search for Dan Walsh, he has some excellent selinux troubleshooting guides) or by opening a bug report with RedHat. For a temporary solution, you can briefly bypass selinux with the command setenforce 0 This will let yo

Is this a RedHat/CentOS box? They've recently made some changes to the selinux configuration around bacula which prevents it from taking pretty much any action other thank backups, including running scripts or creating files. Frank Sweetser fs at wpi.edu| For every problem, there is a sol

Anything in the system logs? Also check selinux, audit2allow -a /var/log/audit/audit.log to see if selinux might be stopping it. On Wed, Apr 29, 2015 at 10:07 PM, Craig Shiroma wrote: > Hi Romeo, > > Yes, as root on the target host, I can create /tmp/etc. Kind of strange. > > Thanks, > -craig

If you go onto the host yourself, as root can you create "etc" in /tmp? On Wed, Apr 29, 2015 at 9:01 PM, Craig Shiroma wrote: > Hello, > > I'm trying to a restore file to a different host's /tmp. I've select the > target host by changing the value of Restore Client during the restore > process,
