[Bacula-users] Standard way of verifying backups?

Hi, I would like to verify DVD backups after doing them, to ensure that the disc wasn't damaged and corrupted data (this is not related to the verify jobs). Is there any standard way of verifying backups, or should I write a custom RunScript block to do it manually? If it must be done manually

[Bacula-users] Bacula is not asking for DVDs

Hi, We have bacula running quite well, and it's doing backups to tape and disk seamlessly. But when trying to use DVD's we have found a problem, we tried leaving the DVD drive empty, to test if bacula asks for a DVD, and we get this message instead: 08-Mar 10:59 wks188-sd: test-dvd-Job.2007-03

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula is not asking for DVDs

I'm still blocked with this problem, does anybody know at least if bacula should ask me for DVD's or if the DVD must be inserted into the drive before issuing the backup job? Thanks Ruben Lopez wrote: > Hi, > > We have bacula running quite well, and it's doing bac

[Bacula-users] Question about concurrent jobs

Hello, I'm trying to run concurrent jobs on different storage resources. For example, there is no problem in doing a tape backup at the same time as a disk backup and a DVD backup, but I don't really want two concurrent backups to tape. So my configuration looks like this: Director { Maximum

[Bacula-users] Umount DVD before writing

Hi, I have DVD's working almost well in my setup. The problem is that I can not reuse a DVD volume because bacula mounts the DVD (to ensure that it is the right dvd to write to?) before writing, and it does not umount it again before the actual writing. My device is unable to write if it is mo

[Bacula-users] Question about volume errors

Hi, I was searching the documentation but I couldn't find any answer there about my question: ¿What are the possible reasons for a volume to reach the "Error" Status? ¿Is it safe to change its status so that it can be used again? Thanks in advance. -

Re: [Bacula-users] Question about volume errors

Hi Juan and others, Thanks for your quick answer. The only reason that may be applicable in this case is the number of files, I think. The tapes and the drive are ok. The backup that we have done on the tape was not complete because of permissions. Some files were not written to the tape and ba

[Bacula-users] How to avoid restoring ownership?

Hello, I'm trying to restore some linux files in a nfs share (where the local root user can not change ownership) and bacula gives a lot of errors when restoring the backup, like this one: 04-May 09:48 bckserve02-fd: RestoreFiles.2007-05-04_09.45.53 Error: Cannot change owner and/or group of /

[Bacula-users] Creating filesets on-the-fly

Hi, I'm new to bacula, and after reading the documentation I couldn't find a way of creating filesets from the consoles. It seems that the only way of creating them is by modifying the configuration file of the director, but this would involve restarting the bacula server to have the new fileset i

[Bacula-users] Generate ISO's only

Hi, Is it possible with bacula to stop after generating the ISO and tell bacula not to write the actual CD/DVD? What we would like to do is to store all the backups in a shared folder, and have one person in charge of burning things from this directory periodically. Thanks. --

[Bacula-users] How to know which job was restored?

Hello, If I issue several restore jobs and one of them fails, the job list doesn't give enough information to know which job was being restored, it only gives the name of the default restore job. Is there any alternative? Even the emails that bacula send doesn't have the information on what wa

[Bacula-users] Concurrent restores - strange behaviour

Hi, Before submitting a bug, I want to discuss here on the list, to be sure that this is a bug, and not a misunderstanding of how bacula works. I have bacula (2.0.1) configured to do concurrent jobs, and it works very well. The only thing that isn't perfect is the restore job. I have a default
