Re: [Bacula-users] Ideal configuration for bacula server?
I was looking at the bacula web site for the supported autochanger and found that IBM 3851 is supported. When I talked to our IBM reseller he said that was replaced by TS3100. Has anyone used TS3100? Will it work with bacula? I was looking at TS3100 with LTO3 drive.

A good deal of my backups are for archival / long term storage so I do not want to have any extra difficulty to recover a dataset by having to use bscan to recover the purged data before actually recovering the files.

This machine is the main image fileserver and has 3TB of software raid 6 installed and a single DLT-IV drive used for backing up user folders for less than 20 users. My database is a postgres database and it now runs on the main bacula-sd machine. This machine is also a dual processor opteron 248 with 4GB of memory and it has nearly 1TB of software raid 6 and a 24 slot dual drive LTO2 autochanger. I use the autochanger for all image backups and system backups. And on top of that some of the 1TB of space on the main bacula-sd machine for file volumes. We have around 35 clients (windows and linux) and to this date we have run nearly 9000 jobs in the 4.5 years that we have used bacula with currently 15TB of data on tape and a 14GB catalog database.

[Bacula-users] Ideal configuration for bacula server?
Folks, I want to setup a new bacula server (if I can compile bacula client on AIX and HP-UX) and I am looking server and autochanger recommendations. I want to run it on a Linux system preferably RH and a LTO autochanger. I want to first backup the sytems to the disk and then migrate it to tape so that the backups run fast. I have various flavors of Linux, Win NT, Win2k server, WinXP, AIX 5.3 and HP-UX 10.0 systems. Full backup of the all systems would probably be around 200GB. What configuration worked best for you?
