Hello guys....
I am very sorry!
It was my mistake... I had installed 32 bits version with Windows 64 bits!

Yes, that is easy to do.  The newer Windows installers detect the problem and refuse to install the wrong version.

Best regards,
Kern


Sorry for the mess!

Thanks

Dear Gilberto,

Place the following option in your FileSet configuration:

Enable VSS = yes

This option will allow Bacula to backup open files.
Use this option only when you are trying to backup Windows machine with a OS not prior to Windows XP.

Quoting the Bacula Main Reference - 09112014:

"Technically Bacula creates a shadow copy as soon as the backup process starts. It does then backup all files from the shadow copy and destroys the shadow copy after the backup process."

In short:

- Bacula will start the VSS service on you Windows Server to create a backup.
- After the backup is done, Bacula will stop the VSS service.

============================================================================================================================================================================

Here is an example of a FileSet with VSS enabled:

FileSet {
 Name = "Windows FileSet"
 Enable VSS = yes
 Include {
    Options {
      signature = MD5
      compression = GZIP
  }
    File = "C:/"
  }
 Exclude {
    File = "C:/pagefile.sys"
    File = "C:/hiberfil.sys"
  }

}


Best regards,

Luc Assoua.

Hello friends...

Is there anybody here know something about make backup with bacula in a MS Windows with SQL Server??
I try it, but I get error that Shadow Copy is not active!
So I ask because I am afraid that active Shadow Copy will interfere with SQL Server in same way...

I hope that I am clear about this issue!

Thanks for any kind of help.

Best regards
