[Bacula-users] Dead server and restore not going so well

2007-05-17 Thread Paul Waldo
Hi all, I have been backing up a file server with Bacula for a year or so. The server has died and I am trying to restore the files to another machine and not having much luck. Using the "restore" command from bconsole on the new box is not giving me a warm fuzzy feeling. If I select Most Recen

[Bacula-users] How to verify contents of a backup?

2007-08-20 Thread Paul Waldo
Hi all, I'm starting with a new Bacula installation (version 1.38.11) and I'm trying to figure out how I can verify that what is in the backup accurately reflects what is on the file system. I have RTFM and see that I can use the Verify job type, but it seems that will not do a byte-for-byte comp

Hi Arno, No the tape was not labeled--it was blank as can be. Nor was that volume label in the catalog. I was under the impression from the docs that automatic labeling would allow me to just feed blank tapes into the drives and bacula would properly detect, label, and use the tapes whenever
