Please verify the following checklist:

 

1. Every client must be built with the proper zlib development libraries installed and found by the compiler (normally Windows & Linux already built packages support gzip).

Ans:  Bacula(7.x) server and Client build with RPM. Yes our Windows and Linux support gzip.

 

Linux bacula client ( 5.x)   which use for testing compress backup has zlib installed.

zlib-1.2.3-25.el6.x86_64

zlib-devel-1.2.3-25.el6.x86_64

2. COMPRESSION directive must be set in every FileSet you want compression to be applied (restart or reload your director to apply changes).

Ans: 

FileSet:

compression = GZIP

 

3. Allow Compression directive must be on (default) for the Storage resource in bacula-dir.conf.

Ans: Below option set

 

Storage:

  AllowCompression = yes

 

FileSet:

compression = GZIP

 

If you still can not use compression please stop and re-run your clients in debug mode (e.g.: -d 200) and paste the output.

Ans: Please find attached debug mode file( open in WordPad).

 

Still backup is not happening in compression mode.

Job log:

Software Compression:   None

 

Let me know if required more info.

 

Thank you,

Hello,

I have installed bacula(7.x) with RPM on Redhat. How do I confirm ZLIB support : yes ?

Zlib already installed.

 

zlib-devel-1.2.3-29.el6.x86_64

zlib-1.2.3-29.el6.x86_64

1.    You must have the zip development libraries loaded on your system when building Bacula and Bacula must find this library, normally /usr/lib/libz.a. On Red Hat systems, this library is provided by the zlib-devel rpm.

If the library is found by Bacula during the ./configure it will be mentioned in the config.out line by:

    ZLIB support:  yes

 

 

Thank you,

Ankush More

Hello Ankush

When you have compiled, did you install zlib-dev?

apt --installed list | grep zlib or
dpkg -l | grep zlib

Thank you,
