[Bacula-users] How do I restore to a different disk?
Can you give me a little more detail? I'm fairly new to Linux and Bacula. Right now Bacula and the storage device are on the same network as where I want to put it, so for example we'll say the hostname/domainname is bacula (where the director and bconsole are), the client that I'm restoring (which is dead) is named client, and I want to restore the files to a folder in /saves on hostname new-server...so bacula and new-server can ping each other, both running same version of CentOS. What do I mount, and where? +-- |This was sent by rlh1...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +-- -- AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on Lean Startup Secrets Revealed.

One last thing...we'll say that the server that contains the backup is somewhere else also, so the dead client, bacula, file storage, and intended destination for restore files are all on different machines but same network +-- |This was sent by rlh1...@gmail.com via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +-- -- AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on Lean Startup Secrets Revealed.

The restore operation will always happen through a bacula-fd (which communicates with the bacula-sd), so to restore to a different machine it'll need a bacula-fd running on it. If you add it as a client to your bacula setup you'll be able to choose it in bconsole when you mod the restore job. You can then still change the Where option in the job to restore it to a different path on that client.

Re: [Bacula-users] How do I restore to a different disk?
Hi,
We generally use a dedicated FD for restoration only. Then we copy
the files using SCP to the corresponding client.
Bye!

Having the fd on the target was the key - thank you. Can I ask why others use a dedicated restore point, then use SCP?

Re: [Bacula-users] How do I restore to a different disk?
Hi! in our case, so we don't have the risk of overwriting any file when restoring. Anyway, we don't make backups of desktop computers. The fd clients are our own servers. Bye!
