Good morning, I'm running Bacula 5 on a Debian server and mostly, it's bloody
brilliant. However, there are four servers in two locations outside of our data
centre that I'm having massive problems backing up.
One location needs to backup 10 files with a total size of about 500mb, but
usually it errors out at about 80mb, often after only 5.
The other location has three of the servers, server2 has two different backup
sets, one for the config files and web data and another for the images that
runs every other day
92353 Full 1,513 1.418 G OK 02-Aug-11 19:30 server1
92555 Incr 37 1.129 G OK 03-Aug-11 12:07 server1
92617 Full 95,122 416.1 M OK 03-Aug-11 10:56 server2-set1
92807 Incr 608 3.865 M OK 04-Aug-11 06:42 server2-set1
92619 Full 1,384 169.6 M OK 03-Aug-11 08:31 server3
92658 Incr 6 168.6 M OK 03-Aug-11 11:29 server3
92472 Full 101,399 4.064 G Error 04-Aug-11 11:34 server2-set2
Server1 backs up fine, as does server2-set1, although really slowly, you're
getting 1, maybe 2mb per minute. Server3 backs up about half the time and
server2 set2 has never managed a full backup, it took 2 days to get that 4Gb
transferred, it usually craps out sooner than that.
All of these servers are the same spec, they're not great but not terrible
either and we have plenty of the same spec in the data centre that back up
fine. The first server is windows, the others are Ubuntu.
Now I know for a fact that the internal networks in these locations are
atrocious and they're not getting fixed any time soon, also both of them are
less than half a mile from the data centre and incidentally we back up several
Gb a day from the other side of the planet without issue.
Anyways, is there anything I can do to mitigate the effects of these really
crappy networks? I've got heartbeat set to 60 but it doesn't seem to have
helped much
