Mindi bootdisk can't find libkmod.so.2, can't mount external storage

Hi all,

I'm having a problem with my mindi boot disk functionality. When booting from the usb, I get an error "can't find libkmod.so.2", when modprobe is called during mounting the usb. The lib file is not in the ramdisk, so this is accurate. However, the mindi log shows that the file is included. Adding it to deplist.txt has no effect. This is reproducible using both mondo, and mindi independently of mondo, and with versions 2.1.4 and 2.1.5. The system I'm backing up is debian testing (jessie), with libkmod2 version 9-3.

Is there a way i can force this to be included, perhaps with a line in /etc/mindi.conf?

2 small troubles to finalize a DR with mondorestore on Ubuntu distro

Hi list,

To let you know 2 small troubles I had in case it may help.

Booting from a mondorescue CD, I successfully restored my linux ext3 and 
LVM partitions but at the end of the process, I had an issue with the 
advise to use mkinitrd.

My distro is Ubuntu 10.04 (I know it is pretty old, but I need a good 
backup before to upgrade it ;) ).
Ubuntu doesn't use mkinitrd anymore but initramfs instead.
(Mondo Rescue release is 3.0.3-r3091)

IMHO, in order to help all of those like me, are not familiar with the 
boot operation, it may help to mention it in the message displayed by 
mondorestore just before to get chrooted.

Another small issue: My device /dev/sda7 is a LVM2 partition (0x8e) and
a line containing "/dev/sda7    lvm" was written into fstab.
It causes some errors while booting. This line should be removed.

Regards,
Philippe

Do am I the things right?

Hi list,
I'm afraid that's the way I build my backups is wrong.
Anyone could tell me if/where I'm wrong?

I'm still not able to restore any NTFS partitions so finally, I had to 
use a simple dd gziped.
Then, doing some tries with linux partitions I am facing quite a similar 
issue: mondorestore always displays config/archives files are not found.
As I know this software is well used elsewhere, I suppose my procedure 
somewhere is wrong.

I have a 1To usb disk to save mainly 2 systems (1 server and 1 laptop).
It is organized like this:
The disk is mounted as /media/svg
	server/distro/timestamp/sys	sys_timestamp-1.iso
					sys_timestamp-2.iso
					....
	server/ntfs/timestamp/vista	vista_timestamp-1.iso
					vista_timestamp-2.iso
					....
	laptop/distro/timestamp/sys	lap_timestamp-1.iso
					lap_timestamp-2.iso
					....
	laptop/ntfs/timestamp/xp	xp_timestamp-1.iso
					xp_timestamp-2.iso
					....

To Simulate a DR, I do:
- replace the main disk by a new empty hard disk already partitionned 
and formatted (it is bigger than the original one)
- boot on the mondorescue CD built when I did mondoarchive
- edit mountlist.txt to follow the redistributed device name (/dev/sdf 
instead of /dev/sda)
- start mondorestore using:
   o interactive
   o read from Hard Disk (external or not, I don't really know what is 
the difference)
   o iso device = /dev/sde1  (this is the 1To USB disk where the 
isofiles are located)
   o path = /tmp/isodir/server/distro/timestamp/sys
     or mounting the disk under /mnt/svg:
     path = /mnt/svg/server/distro/timestamp/sys

   ==> config/archive files not found

I tried with USB Key/disk but it doesn't work neither and it loops 
indefinitely asking for USB#1 without anyway to stop it (just kill 
mondorestore from another console)

Please find attached the mondorestore.log.
It seems that the ISO files path used is /tmp/isodir instead of the one 
I gave (line 135). Thus it cannot mount as loop the iso file under 
/dev/cdrom (line 142)

This is reason why I wonder if the way I built such a tree on the ISO 
archives disk as I did, wouldn't be the issue.

Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Philippe

Mondorestore keeps asking to "Insert isofs #1"

Hi all,

Due to an unfortunate series of events, my debian server got interupted during an upgrade to the new 7.0, and was very confused about what to install. So, I thought I would just restore, and start over on the upgrade.

I launched mondorestore over an ssh connection, chose restore from hard drive, selected the .iso from my external drive, selected my files, and went to restore. Then i was asked to "insert isofs #1 and press enter", but it never could locate the iso, and I couldn't interupt the process. I could hear the disk drive moving each time I hit enter

I was forced to kill the terminal, and I could not open another ssh connection to try again. I had to restart, and now the system is unbootable.

I can't get logs off the machine right now, have to borrow a screen so I can boot it up from a restore disk. What can I do to get mondorestore to get find the iso?

Mondo/Mindi on Fedora17


Hello;

I know that it has been mentioned before, but I got the latest Mindi
today.  I stared a Monoarchive back up.  Mindi do 43 minutes to run.
The time is OK, so this is just FYI.

Mondorescue - backup over NFS wants to restore from CD

I've done backup over NFS, everything is fine. Backup is done with:

mount linuxnfs:/nfs -t nfs /mnt/nfs
mondoarchive -OVn linuxnfs:/nfs -I "/"
umount /mnt/nfs

Next I boot from flash usb (with /var/cache/mindi/mondorescue.iso) and receive error:
/dev/loop0 on /mnt/cdrom type iso9660 (ro)
Optimizing IDE drive access...cat: can't open '/tmp/CDROM-LIVES-HERE': No such file or directory
I don't know where the CDROM lives. Optimization cancelled.
Executing preliminary script
The mondorestore command was not found on your backup media
It may mean your device is not seen correctly.
Check driver list and error messages.
Type 'exit' to reboot the PC
sh-3.2#

The question is: why it tries to restore from CD when backup was done over NFS?

Interesting thing - NFS share is mounted and I can see the backup files:
sh-3.2# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
none 5120 128 4992 3% /dev
none 61454545 0 5656565 0% /dev/shm
/dev/shm 5656565 64 787878 1% /tmp
1.2.3.4:/nfs 5656576567 4545454 45454545 7% /tmp/isodir

Documentation clearly states:
6.2.5. Standard Example With Network Backup

bash# mount nfs://192.168.1.3:/home/nfs -t nfs /mnt/nfs
bash# mondoarchive -OVn nfs://192.168.1.3:/home/nfs -g -s 200m
bash# umount /mnt/nfs

The resultant ISO's can be burned to CD's if you want (which isn't a good idea unless you're a Mondo expert because they'll try to restore over a network by default, which is silly because the archives are on the CD's). Or, you can boot from the Mindi media (or mondorescue.iso) and hit ENTER a few times to restore.

My version of mondo/mindi:
mondo-3.0.3-1.rhel5
mindi-2.1.4-1.rhel5
mindi-busybox-1.18.5-3.rhel5

OS version:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga)
Linux daml-testold 2.6.18-164.el5 #1 SMP Tue Aug 18 15:51:48 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Thank you for any suggestions

Max file name length

Hi all,

Great software.

Mondo Archive v3.0.3-r3091 on ubuntu
In /var/log/mondoarchive.log I'm seeing lots of

[Main] libmondo-filelist.c->chop_filelist#271: Warning - truncating file '....' name

I've replaced the flle name with ...

The file names are generated by ecryptfs, so if they are not identical a restore would be of no use.

Is there an option to allow the max length under linux, or are there any plans to remove this restrition?

Many Thanks
Paul

FW: VolGroup-lv_home

Hi Nick

Let me start by giving you a small background, I have a Centos server which I did the Backup on, then thought I would test a restore on a VM which is where the error started. So then I thought I would setup a Centos VM and the clone to another VM with the same size drive and hardware using VirtualBox but still get the same error. I have noticed that if I do an interactive and it shows the mount list, the following are zero sized "/dev/VolGroup/lv_root, /dev/VolGroup/lv_home, /dev/VolGroup/lv_swap" See screen attached shot. I have tried deleting these mount points which is then successful but when I boot the VM it stops at "/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_home is mounted, e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting". Any ideas

Thanks for the help

VolGroup-lv_home

Can anybody help me, I have created a backup of my Centos 6.4 which goes OK but when I try to restore using ‘Automatically’ it starts to format the drives but stops with error “Could not mount device(s) /dev/VolGroup/lv_home – shall I abort”.

Am I doing something wrong during Backup (I use this command to Backup with ‘mondoarchive -Oi -d /media/Vol2 -E ’/media’ -p `hostname`-`date +%Y-%m-%d` or can someone point me in the right direction.

Sorry I am unable to attach the logs as I cant get them off the machine due to no network.

Thank you

Steven
