Re: Bacula-web restore assistant : serching by windows root partition letters

Oh so cool 

Clearing cache worked great. I finally found my root partition letters
.bvfs_clear_cache yes

Thanks a lot !

(and too for path=D:/mydir/ :) )

Hello Lionel,

For empty results from the command with path=D:/ it can mean that something is wrong in your Bvfs cache for this path D:/. I would propose to rebuild this cache. You can just clear it by this bconsole
command:

.bvfs_clear_cache yes

This will cause that on the next restore wizard use, the cache will be created from scratch. It will also cause that in the restore wizard, when the Bvfs cache will be updated, it can take a bit longer time than usual (loading restore wizard between steps 2 => 3) up till the cache will be recreated.

For your test with path=D:/mydir it will not work until you add slash at the end because this path parameter in Bvfs commands requires the end slash to list results, for example:

GOOD:
=====
path=D:/
path=D:/mydir/
path=D:/mydir/abc/def/

BAD:
=====
path=D:
path=D:/mydir
path=D:/mydir/abc/def

The only exception is the empty path value that lists the main root elements in the directory tree:

GOOD:
path=
