Hi Fabio.
1) on bacula console: estimate of the job and give us the result
How may i do this ? |
in the same way you get "list volumes" ;)
or, as you are on windows OS, open cmd prompt and write "bconsole" (try ...i'm not on Win!)
in the bacula console type "estimate"
then you get a list of jobs -> select the one you want
wait for the result
|
2) give us the client/fileset configuration
Device { Name = DLT-V4 # Media Type = DLT-V4 Device Type = Tape Archive Device = Tape0 AutomaticMount = yes # when device opened, read it AlwaysOpen = yes
RemovableMedia = yes RandomAccess = no Minimum Block Size = 32768 Maximum Block Size = 32768 Alert Command = "tapeinfo -f %c | findstr TapeAlert"
|
sorry: no client & fileset info here...
3) on bacula console: list volumes and give us the result
#list volume
Pool: Default
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes | VolFiles | VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| 3 | VS1-0001 | Full | 1 | 190,806,491,136 | 191 | 31,536,000 | 1 | 0 | 0 | DLT-V4 | 2009-05-11 22:47:12 |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
4) did you set the use of the tape once?
Where must i do this ?
|
see the POOL definition. If you set "Use Volume _Once_ = yes" then every backup use only one TAPE (or VTAPE ;) )
Or you can check "Maximum Volume Jobs".
I thinkl bacula manual can help you very well (chapter5: the pool resource)
I agree with John:compression can't help you on data that can't be compressed (as .jpg & so on) ;)
