no i don't know where those are but i was able to make some progress...
i have been using the script at [1] but then i noticed that the
incremental backups were quite large and containing some MYD and MYI
files. so i realized these were myisam databases. i read that the best
way to backup both innodb and myisam databases was to use the mysqldump
option --lock-tab
abbing all the files that haven't changed. Here is an example file
that bacula is grabbing which it shouldn't:
[scar@oldserver ~]$ ls -l

Hi all, we are using bacula 5.2.6. I have disk-based storage with 4
devices defined, and 20 max concurrent jobs for the storage demon. All
the file demons also have 20 max concurrent jobs. In the director, it

hello! i hope someone could help me fix my bacula server that has
stopped working after i upgraded the system from Ubuntu 10.04 to 12.04.
bacula is version 5.2.5-0ubuntu6.2 now. there were some questions
during upgrade about configuring/upgrading the database with
bacula-common-mysql or something

most of the files are homemade audio recordings... mp3, wav, and flac.
the ctimes don't show any modification either.

I'd like to use the Maximum Bandwidth directive, which can be

Hi all,
Is there a best practice for incrementally backing up /SQLite/
databases, like there is for /MySQL/ databases (by way of the example
/MySQL/ backup scripts that ship with /Bacula/)? I've been trying to
find a solution for some months now but keep getting side-tracked.

I've used bacula for years and it's always figured out the correct Level
of job to run if there are multiple scheduled. That may have to do with
these settings as well:
Allow Duplicate Jobs = no
Cancel Lower Level Duplicates = yes
Cancel Queued Duplicates = yes
Cancel Running Duplicates = no

It seems there was a medium security update released for postgresql-13
on Debian bookworm (oldstable), and right after that bacula stopped
working due to "no connection to the server". For example, got this
