Dear List,
I have a FileSet defined. This FileSet is used by a backup job and a
verify job. However within this FileSet/Verify job there are some oddities.
Job {
Name = "Verify_Zim"
Type = Verify
Level = VolumeToCatalog
Client = zim-fd
FileSet = "Full Set"
Messages = Standard
Storage = "DDS-4"
Pool = Default
Schedule = "VerifyCycle"
Verify Job = "Client_Zim"
}
In the FileSet is defined:
Verify = pins5
I just want to verify that what was written to tape was written
correctly. At the time of backup there are no active users however
daemons such as a MTA continue to work obviously.
I have some question on the following issues.
a) the verify job seems to verify against jobID 270 which was (I think)
the last time I ran a Verify Init job. I wanted however to run it
against the previous backup job (JobId 277). This probably explains
oddity #4 below.
What is going wrong here? The catalog is never updated after an Initial
Verify?
b) Logfiles from daemons are backuped "raw" (without shutting them down)
in out setup. I know it's not the best way, but anyway... Can I
configure director in such a way that the backupjob backs up everything
in the FileSet definition, but does omit certain files/directories when
verifying without defining an almost identical second FileSet?
(the fileset definition is complex, changing it might lead to oddities
in the future when a second FileSet has to be maintained too)
This would probably (partly) fix oddities #1, #2 and #5 below.
c) There are 2 things I simply do not understand at all. Being oddity #3
below and the strange sequence of chars in the log in oddity #5 below.
Running on Debian Etch Bacula backport packages 2.4.1-1~bpo40+1 against
MySQL.
Any remarks & suggestions highly welcomed.
Thanks in advance,
Olaf

28-May 00:07 zim-dir JobId 278: New file:

4. New files that were created during the working day such as log files
of user applications.
These are never updated during the backup process as no one works at
that time.
