I have a tape library (VXA Autopak) with two tape drives. I am trying to get bacula setup to run 2 backup jobs at once so that one job goes to one drive and the other job is handled by the second drive.
It seems like Max Concurrent Jobs is what I need to be looking at but
the manual reads like that is for splitting a single backup process over
multiple storage devices. I just want to run multiple jobs onto multiple
devices individually.
I have the following stuff set up in bacula-dir.conf:
Job {
Name = "alice"
JobDefs = "WindowsJob"
Client = alice
Prefer Mounted Volumes = No
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
}
Director { # define myself
Name = backupdir
DIRport = 9101 # where we listen for UA connections
QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql"
WorkingDirectory = "/var/bacula"
PidDirectory = "/var/run"
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
Password = "*************" # Console password
Messages = Daemon
}
Client {
Name = alice
Address = 192.168.1.25
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
Password = "************" # password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 8 days # 30 days
Job Retention = 8 days # six months
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
Storage {
Name = "autopak"
Device = VXA1a, VXA1b
Media Type = VXA1
Password = "tapedrive"
SDPort = 9103
Address = backups
# Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
}
Storage {
Name = VXA1a
Device = VXA1a
Password = "tapedrive"
SDPort = 9103
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
Address = backups
Media Type = VXA1
}
Storage {
Name = VXA1b
Device = VXA1b
Password = "tapedrive"
SDPort = 9103
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
Address = backups
Media Type = VXA1
}
