I want to setup a way using bacula, to complete restore a recovered ubuntu server system + ubuntu server LTS on a new machine.

My Workflow:

  1. Installation of the latest Ubuntu Server LTS on my machine.
  2. Restoring the saved fileset via bacula director from remote machine.

The fileset I saved from the machine looks like:

FileSet {
        Name = "developmentserver"
        Include {
                Options {
                        signature = MD5
                }
                File = "/"
                File = "/home"
                File = "/var"
                File = "/etc"
        }
        Exclude {
                File = "/dev"
                File = "/proc"
                File = "/sys"
                File = "/mnt"
                File = "/media"
                File = "/tmp"
                File = "/var/cache/apt"
        }
}

That configuarion wouldn't work, I get a lot of errors when restoring on the new machine. They look like this:

Error: create_file.c:223 Could not create /var/opt/gitlab/postgresql/data/base/16385/17972: ERR=No such file or directory
ns1-fd JobId 9: Error: mkpath.c:140 Cannot create directory /var/opt/gitlab: ERR=No space left on device

Can someone help me and my configuration to do the work I want to expect?

Thank you very much!

At least another little question: Is it possible to also backup the OS (in my case Ubuntu Server 18.04.01 LTS) using bacula? But how would the restoring process look like?

Many thanks in advice!

your error message says: "No space left on device", so you have to check free space on your filesystems. Did you run an accurate mode backup (Accurate=Yes)?
