similar to: samba 4.0.x : samba_backup wrong path line 54

the script is not complete. It isnt stopping samba and as the wiki says, DONT backup a running samba.

Hi, I am trying to backup a samba DC with the samba_backup script as described in https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Backup_and_Recovery (BTW there's a typo in a chapter title which should be samba_backup instead of backup_samba) . It works ok except that it backups also all files in the ./lib/private/ dir , which are all library files. I suspect that it is wrong , isn't it ? Regards

Hi, I followed the tutorial below to do backup of the Samba4: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Backup_and_Recovery When I execute the backup script manually, it is executed perfectly, but when I execute in the crontab, it isn't work. It is my crontab on Debian 7: 0 1 * * 1-5 /usr/sbin/samba_backup Does somebody have an idea ? Regards, Márcio

dear, I made the installation of Samba4 in centos6, now I need to back up the structure, tried using the script that samba.org offers more he is giving this error. See the error through the bash -x bash -x samba_backup.sh + FROMWHERE = / var / lib / samba + WHERE = / root / backups + '[' N '' ']' + '[' -n '' -a -d '' ']' + '[' -n

Mark Ok so you doing the exact opposite of what the samba_backup script does with regards to ldb and tdb files, but then you are shutting down Samba to do a backup anyway so it doesn't really matter what you are doing in this regard. I want a consistent backup while Samba is running. Regards Mike On 2015-09-01 16:08, Mark Foley wrote: > Here's what I do before tar'ring: >

Thanks for the answer. > Did you got errors during the classicupgrade? I didn't do classicupgrade. My Samba AD DC was installed from scratch some months ago using the instructions from this page https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba_AD_DC_HOWTO and everything had been working well. I just upgraded some deb-packages with samba to the same version but different buid-release. Regarding

Hi Louis, it doesn't say that at all, what it does say is this: Whilst you must never copy a running database, you can backup *.ldb & *.tdb files online with 'tdbbackup' This is a bit ambiguous, what it should say is: You

I have a few Samba 4.2 DC in production now and figured that I should do something about backups. I have read https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Backup_and_restore_an_Samba_AD_DC and had a look through the samba_backup script and have a few questions. Firstly I am using the Sernet packages on Centos7. I am assuming the following mappings from the script for my set up /usr/local/samba/etc is

Hello, I notice the script expects to have $PATH include '/usr/local/samba/bin'. Script will fail if it can't find tdbbackup. It was obvious to me but others may stumble. Maybe someone could add under the 'About the samba_backup script' section. "/This requires that your whole samba installation is on one place (like /usr/local/samba/). This script assumes you

Hai, but dont forget that if you use samba also as print server you need to backup the /var/lib/samba/drivers en printing also. ( and in my case a different folder. ) In /var/cache/samba is the file printer_list.tdb I dont think that recreated, and if it is, you probely will loose the printer settings. I'll have to look that up. Maybe its an option to let the backup scrip detect if it

Hi, Samba-AD-DC is working great for us here. All integration working as expected. However one small issue. We attempted to use "samba_backup" script to backup the configuration data. It works fine. However, when we set it as a cronjob, the cron triggers at the given time during the day, but the samba_backup script fails to execute. No logs either. All other cronjobs, like rsync

Hi, We were using samba_backup from 4.4.5 and after upgrade to 4.10.5 we are trying to configure new method, but is not working, tried: offline with samba stopped: # samba-tool domain backup offline --targetdir=/local/test/ INFO: Current debug levels: all: 5 tdb: 5 printdrivers: 5 lanman: 5 smb: 5 rpc_parse: 5 rpc_srv: 5 rpc_cli: 5 passdb: 5 sam: 5 auth: 5 winbind: 5

Besides, obviously, the potential shared data on file servers, can't you just use the script that is introduced for backing up DCs? At least if the complete Samba installation is in "/usr/local/samba"... https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Backup_and_restore_an_Samba_AD_DC Am 02.12.2015 um 20:06 schrieb Marc Muehlfeld: > Hello James, > > Am 02.12.2015 um 15:57 schrieb

Just to mention and because I'm in doubt: The samba_backup script contains tdbdump for private folder to create online dumps of all ldb. But the dumps are smaller than the original. Is that ok? I'm in doubt regarding integrity. Am 20. Dezember 2014 10:59:59 MEZ, schrieb Marc Muehlfeld <mmuehlfeld at samba.org>: >Hello Johannes, > >Am 18.12.2014 um 12:23 schrieb johannesa:
