Hi all, A short while ago I made my backups with rsync and other Os-Tools. But I get more and more problems. I want to change my backup to Bacula. Because I think it is very flexible.
My first goal is to make a daily backup of all my servers (5 Linux and 5 Windows Server) to a backup server. This is working fine with Bacula. My second goal is to make a weekly and monthly backup of all data to external usbdisks. I have 3 disk for the weekly backup and 3 disks for the monthly backup which I change periodically. The first Saturday a month I want to do a monthly backup. On the other Saturdays I want to do a weekly backups. In Bacula I want to handle this with different pools. For a minimal administration I found the vchanger script on this mailing list. I read the documentation but I altough have some questions: How can I configure the autochanger without changing the scripts - one autochanger with 6 physical disks (3 for monthly and 3 for weekly backup) - two autochanger with 3 physical disks per changer (one changer for weekly backup one changer for monthly backup) - six autochanger with one physical disk I need the whole disk capacity of the physical drives (250GB) for one backup. So I think I can't work with more than one virtuell slot. How does the autochanger know which disk is the next. (All disks have the same label)? What do you think about this implementation? I use Debian Etch with Bacula 1.38.11 Thanks for your help Daniel _____________________________________________________________________ Der WEB.DE SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen! http://smartsurfer.web.de/?mc=100071&distributionid=000000000066 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
