Hello,
We are using
Bacula Version: 2.2.7 on a Linux Host. We have been taking backup
since quite a long but today I noticed a unique problem.
1. The tape from the
previous backup was stuck inside the drive and hence further backups could not
be proceeded. I tried to manually unmount the tape but it did not help. Hence
with no options around, I restarted the tape library. And the problem got
solved. Question is , why it got stuck inside ?? Is there any way to find out
the reason behind ?? Please suggest.
2. We observed next
problem immediately after, I just happened to see the next scheduled jobs in 7
days and could not find the correct listing for our daily incremental
backup. Let me explain properly here.
We have
a EXPORT backup for one of our client that is scheduled as daily
incremental and weekly full as shown below.
Schedule {
Name = "weeklycycle"
Run = Level=Full Pool=odd_week fri w01 w03 w05
w07 w09 w11 w13 w15 w17 w19 w21 w23 w25 w27 w29 w31 w33 w35 w37
w39 w41 w43 w45 w47 w49 w51 w53 at 22:05
Run = Level=Incremental
Pool=even_week mon-thu w01 w03 w05 w07 w09 w11 w13 w15 w17
w19 w21 w23 w25 w27 w29 w31 w33 w35 w37 w39 w41 w43 w45 w47 w49
w51 w53 at 20:00
Run =
Level=Full Pool=even_week fri w02 w04 w06 w08 w10 w12 w14 w16 w18 w20 w22 w24
w26 w28 w30 w32 w34 w36 w38 w40 w42 w44 w46 w48 w50 w52 at 22:05
Run =
Level=Incremental Pool=odd_week mon-thu w02 w04 w06 w08 w10 w12
w14 w16 w18 w20 w22 w24 w26 w28 w30 w32 w34 w36 w38 w40 w42 w44 w46 w48 w50 w52
at 20:00
}
And the scheduled
jobs list as ,
Level
Type
Pri
Scheduled
Name
Volume
===================================================================================
Incremental Backup
9 04-May-09
22:05 test_EXPORT
AAD365
Full
Backup 9 08-May-09
22:05 test_EXPORT
AAD395
Incremental Backup
9 11-May-09 22:05
test_EXPORT AAD395
Full
Backup 9 15-May-09
22:05 test_EXPORT AAD365
One can clearly see
that, there are no incremental backup jobs scheduled on 5,6 & 7 May as
well as on 12,13 & 14. Why?? Ideally they do run from Monday to Thursday (as
defined above) and Friday full backup.
I see some pattern
in this problem, like it is only able to schedule for Monday. ( 4 May and 11
May) but not on days after Monday.
Can anyone point me
in right direction as it is getting confusing for me. Am I missing something
here??
Please ask if you
need any specific info.
Thanks in
adv,
Sac
