Thanks for all the input.

I think a lvm snapshot is the best way to go for us.

We tried mysql replication but we ran into problems with the batch insert functions of bacula.

Subject: [Bacula-users] How to backup the catalog

Hi List,

One question, how to backup the catalog.

We are using MySQL for the bacula catalog. This database is approximately 46 Gb in size.

When we use the backup script make_catalog_backup (supplied with bacula) to dump the database, bacula is not usable during the mysqldump process due to locked tables.

In this case its not possible to make a backup of the catalog every day. We don’t like a not responding bacula system ;)

My question is how do you make a good backup of the catalog without interrupting the bacula functionality?

Thanks and regards

Jan Jaap
