Backup Central

Attachments: Message as HTML

I'm trying to backup a redhat8 box, but i get the following errors every
time:

rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /boot
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /proc
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /home
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /usr/WWW
rhbox: Filesystem change prohibited. Will not descend into /usr/data

The backup completes with a non-error status, but it doesnt back up the very
important stuff in /home and /usr that I set up bacula expressly for...The
job in question is defined as follows:

# Job/Fileset definitions for handler
Job {
Name = Backuprhbox
JobDefs = DefaultJobTemplate
Client = rhbox
FileSet = FileSetrhbox
Write Bootstrap = "/home/bacula/bin/working/rhbox.bsr"
}
FileSet {
Name = FileSetrhbox
Ignore FileSet Changes = yes
Include {
Options {
Signature = MD5
Verify = pins5
Onefs = yes
Exclude = yes

# exclude files in /tmp and /proc
Wild = "/tmp/*"
Wild = "/proc/*"
}
# include everything else
File = "/"
}
}

Have I just completely misunderstood/misconfigured something?

I take it you have separate partitions for /boot, /usr, /home, etc?
Bacula won't cross filesystem boundaries by default, so if you want to
back-up separate filesystems you must explicitly list them in your
Fileset record. Try adding:

File = "/home"
File = "/usr"
etc...

To your Fileset record.

Bacula-doc:
onefs=yes|no
If set to yes (the default), Bacula will remain on a single file system.

set it to "no".

Kind of
You missed the 'One FS' option in your fileset definitions.

I take it you have separate partitions for /boot, /usr, /home, etc?
Bacula won't cross filesystem boundaries by default, so if you want to
back-up separate filesystems you must explicitly list them in your
Fileset record. Try adding:

File = "/home"
File = "/usr"
etc...

To your Fileset record.

Or use the OneFS=Yes option. Which one is the right solution for your
setup depends... none is perfect:
Having to add all file systems to the file set can get you in trouble
when you forget to add new file systems.
Backing up mounted file systems will get you in trouble when you back up
locally mounted NFS shares, DVDs, external hard disks, and /dev/kmem.
For example.

I think they are essential. HP Data Protector does not print them, and
we have made some painful mistakes as a result. Thanks for their
addition here.

Yes, I guess what I am really complaining about is that these messages will
always be printed even if at some later point (or some prior point) Bacula
decends into the directory because it is explicitly included. I think a
little bit more fancy coding could probably reduce the noise a bit.
Some day, if no one sends me a patch, this will annoy me enough that I will
fix it ...
