Hello together,

 

I hope someone can help me.

Last Saturday bacula should make fullbackup for 22 clients.

It starts at 20:05 with the first client.

At Sunday morning 04:04 it send me messages like this:

08-Feb 04:04 backupserver-sd JobId 232: Job helios-Automatic-Backup.2009-02-07_20.05.21 waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes.

Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:

    Storage:      "helios-Device" (/backup/helios)

    Pool:         helios-Pool

    Media type:   File

 

I have no idea where the problem is.

This job works fine last January.

 

Here is the job definition:

# /etc/bacula/helios-backup.conf

 

#

# Job definition for host helios

#

Job {

  Name = helios-Automatic-Backup

  Type = Backup

  Client = helios

  FileSet = helios-FileSet

  Schedule = WeeklyCycle

  Storage = helios-Storage

  Messages = Standard

  Pool = helios-Pool

}

 

The fileset definition:

#

# Fileset definition for host helios

#

FileSet {

  Name = helios-FileSet

  Include {

    Options {

      signature = SHA1

      compression = GZIP9

      @/etc/bacula/excludedAbaqusFiles.conf

      }

    File = /etc

    File = /var/lib/ldap

    File = /local/data/home

  }

}

 

The pool definition. It’s the same definition like all other client pool definition, excepting the hostname:

#

# Pool Definition for host helios

#

Pool {

Name = helios-Pool

Pool Type = Backup

Recycle = yes

AutoPrune = yes

Volume Retention = 1 months

Use Volume _Once_ = yes

Maximum Volume Bytes = 4509715660.8

Label Format = "helios-"

Maximum Volumes = 31

}

 

The schedule definition:

## When to do the backups, full backup on first sunday of the month,

##  differential (i.e. incremental since full) every other sunday,

##  and incremental backups other days

Schedule {

  Name = "WeeklyCycle"

  Run = Full first saturday at 20:05

  Run = Differential second-fifth saturday at 20:05

  Run = Incremental monday-friday at 20:05

}

 

The job starts and generate some volumes.

list volumes jobid=232

Jobid 232 used 7 Volume(s): helios-0331|helios-0332|helios-0333|helios-0334|helios-0335|helios-0336|helios-0337

+-------+-------------------------+---------------------+------+-------+----------+----------------+-----------+

| JobId | Name                    | StartTime           | Type | Level | JobFiles | JobBytes       | JobStatus |

+-------+-------------------------+---------------------+------+-------+----------+----------------+-----------+

|   232 | helios-Automatic-Backup | 2009-02-08 00:46:42 | B    | F     |  422,492 | 31,446,205,296 | f         |

 

This job should backup 70GByte files

5 T diskspace are enough, I think:

fileserver:/etc/bacula # df -h

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/sdb5             9,9G  3,3G  6,1G  35% /

udev                  4,0G  164K  4,0G   1% /dev

/dev/sdb6             5,0G  164M  4,6G   4% /tmp

/dev/sdb7             207G  5,2G  191G   3% /var

/dev/sdc5             9,9G  2,9G  6,5G  31% /local/sdc

/dev/sdc6             5,0G  140M  4,6G   3% /local/sdc/tmp

/dev/sdc7             207G  4,8G  192G   3% /local/sdc/var

/dev/sda1             2,0T  237G  1,7T  13% /fileserverShare

/dev/sda2             6,0T  781G  5,0T  14% /backup

 

In www I red that I can fix this instead I prune some older volumes of helios.

I did this. But nothing happens.

Then I red about storage deamon problems. So I restarted the storage daemon.

After that, bacula stopped this job and started the next job.

 

Bacula directory and sotarge daemon are installed on the same machine.

An opensuse 11.0 x86_64 pc.

Bacula installed in version.

fileserver:/etc/bacula # rpm -qi bacula-mysql-2.4.3-1

Summary     : Bacula - The Network Backup Solution

Description :

 

But it is the i586 package. Not the x86_64 version.

The x86_64 version didn’t work on this machine.

 

I checked the number of volumes for other clients.

Other pools containes more volumes.

The volume number isn’t  > 999.

 

After I restart the storage daemon it starts the next job. This job generates a volume called john-0338.

 

This job was the second full backup job for this machine.

 

So, where is the problem?

 

Regards

Manfred
