Re: [Bacula-users] Unable to recover data using bscan

Hi Ana,

Thanks for the point! I think I could not avoid setup the previous old version for this recovery when the new version currently use seems not working.

I had already tried bextract command and failed as it seems to be not possible for encrypted data referring to some posts.

Thanks much again for your helps!

Best regards,

Keith

Hi Keith,

I'm affraid it's a database version problem. Your 2012 backups have database vesion=12 and your current catalog uses version 14. If this is the problem, I'm not sure it is, then you can solve it creating an 5.0.3 director virtual machine with an empty database and restore the 8 volumes and jobs with bscan.

For old backups, I normally use bextract for restores, mainly because I don't have file retention times too long and with bextract I can easly do full restores or select folders/files I want be restored (and you can use only one volume or all of them).

Best regards,

Ana

Hi Ana,

Thanks for your kind advise! Will post after tried.

But I would ask whether it is possible to restore data with one volume instead of multiple volume since the full backup done for eight volumes (and seems not able to restore it without creating the first volume). Besides, if possible, I shall use the job id (e.g.7) that has created when bscan multiple volumes as bscan one volume did not see a new job ID created? When use job ID 7, no more folders recovered after only bscan volume 7 even volfiles has value 232 now (re-run bscan -V COMHKOB2012HDD7 -v -s -S -m -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf /mnt/usb3docking1).

Hi Keith,

Have you checked with "bls" the contents of these volumes?
