Thanks Brock. Yes I was going to send the configs but was looking to
narrow it down before blanketing the list with config files.
Pools config. The goal because this is all disk based is one backup job
per file on a direct attached raid. The archive pool is a removable USB3
hard drive. No single job has taken over 19 hours according to backup logs.
Pool {
Name = Monthly
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = yes
VolumeRetention = 2 months
Maximum Volume Bytes = 0
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Maximum Volumes = 0
Recycle = yes
Label Format =
"${Client}-${Pool}-${Year}${Month:p/2/0/r}${Day:p/2/0/r}-${Hour:p/2/0/r}${Minute:p/2/0/r}"
Next Pool = Archive
Volume Use Duration = 19h
}
Pool {
Name = Weekly
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = yes
VolumeRetention = 60 days
Maximum Volume Bytes = 0
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Maximum Volumes = 0
Recycle = yes
Label Format =
"${Client}-${Pool}-${Year}${Month:p/2/0/r}${Day:p/2/0/r}-${Hour:p/2/0/r}${Minute:p/2/0/r}"
Next Pool = Archive
Volume Use Duration = 19h
}
Pool {
Name = Daily
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = yes
VolumeRetention = 40 days
Maximum Volume Bytes = 0
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Maximum Volumes = 0
Recycle = yes
Label Format =
"${Client}-${Pool}-${Year}${Month:p/2/0/r}${Day:p/2/0/r}-${Hour:p/2/0/r}${Minute:p/2/0/r}"
Next Pool = Archive
Volume Use Duration = 19h
}
Pool {
Name = Archive
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = no
VolumeRetention = 6 months
Maximum Volume Bytes = 0
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Maximum Volumes = 0
Recycle = yes
Label Format =
"${Client}-${Pool}-${Year}${Month:p/2/0/r}${Day:p/2/0/r}-${Hour:p/2/0/r}${Minute:p/2/0/r}"
Storage = ArchiveDrive
Storage config below is duplicated a number of times for concurrent
backups, they're all the same as the one below.
I have removed the IP and password.
Storage {
Name = File
Address = x.x.x.x
Password = ""
Device = FileStorage
Media Type = File
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
}
