Re: [Bacula-users] Moved to new NFS storage

Hi Phil and Ana,

Thank you for your replies. I didn't do any database dumps and the files have been updated today as can be seen by the datastamps below, so I'm concerned about removing the files. Below is the output of all the files under this folder...

-rw-r----- 1 root root 2.2K Jun 11 15:33 bacula-dir.9101.state

-rw-r----- 1 root root 2.0G Jun 1 12:45 bacula-dir.BackupCatalog.2015-06-01_10.30.16_01.-1543443896.mail

-rw-r----- 1 root root 410 Jun 10 05:55 bacula-dir.bacula-dir.14381816.mail

-rw-r----- 1 root root 410 Jun 9 05:56 bacula-dir.bacula-dir.14914296.mail

-rw-r----- 1 root root 410 Jun 8 08:15 bacula-dir.bacula-dir.28189432.mail

-rw------- 1 root root 2.5K Jun 11 15:33 bacula-dir.conmsg

-rw-r----- 1 root root 0 Jun 11 2014 bacula-dir.MAIL.2014-05-28_23.05.00_15.13058968.mail

-rw-r----- 1 root root 2.2K Jun 11 13:43 bacula-fd.9102.state

-rw-r----- 1 root root 221 Jun 11 01:28 bacula-fd.bsr

-rw-r----- 1 root root 2.2K Jun 11 15:33 bacula-sd.9103.state

-rw------- 1 root root 8.6G Jun 11 01:31 bacula.sql

-rw-r----- 1 root root 2.0G Jun 11 15:33 log

I've looked through my config files referencing /var/spool/bacula and below are the various config options...

/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf: WorkingDirectory = /var/spool/bacula

/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf: File = /var/spool/bacula

/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf: File = "/var/spool/bacula/bacula.sql"

/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf: append = "/var/spool/bacula/log" = all, !skipped

/etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf: WorkingDirectory = /var/spool/bacula

/etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf: WorkingDirectory = /var/spool/bacula

Does this help in determining what files these are?

Thank you once again.

Regards.

Neil Wilson.

What do you mean, "prune or re-create" them? They are not part of your
database, nor are they part of Bacula. Where did they come from?

>From the filenames, my guess would be that bacula.sql is an uncompressed
dump files of your old Bacula database. If that's what it is and you
need the data in it, you could load it back into your database and
delete it. If you don't need the data, you could just delete it. If
you don't know whether you need it or not yet, try compressing it with gzip.

I have no idea what log.sql might be.
