How you organize this? > Cheers > -- > Saludos > ReynierPM > There are several possibilities how to set up pools. \ You can have just one pool in which, say, 15 servers scattered over 3 different locations are backed up. You can also create 3 pools, one for each location, one pool per client or even 3 pools per client, making a total of 45 pools. The last option is what I use. I use a pool for full backup, one for Differential and one for Incremental backups of client. Still each pool needs an unique name. I could explain how pools, volumes and the rest works, but the Bacula documentation would be a better read. It takes some time to get familiar with it all, but a basic understanding of the main concepts is necessary to create a good backup strategy. Please feel free to ask the questions you want to ask while or after reading the documentation. Cheers, Maarten Hoogveld -- Come build with us!

Re: [Bacula-users] Organizing pools
The "Name" for each pool has to be unique. Try something like #Client 1 Pool { Name = SVEXP01-Pool ... ... } #Client 2 Pool { Name = SVEXP02-Pool ... ... } Cheers, Maarten Hoogveld Elevate BV Diopter 80 1025 MS Amsterdam The Netherlands Tel: +31 (0)20 636 96 33 Mob: +31 (0)6 4349 8382 2009/11/3 ReynierPM > Hi every: > I'm trying to organize my pools.

[Bacula-users] Organizing pools
Hi every: I'm trying to organize my pools. I have this two files configured: #Client 1 Pool { Name = SVEXP-Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 2 year Recycle Oldest Volume = yes Maximum Volume Jobs = 31 Label Format = SVEXPAPP01-Pool- Maximum Volumes = 12 } #Client 2 Pool { Name = SVEXP-Pool Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Retention = 2 year Recycle Oldest Volume = yes Maximum Volume Jobs = 31 Label Format = SVEXPAPP02-Pool- Maximum Volumes = 12 } But when I try to restart Bacula I got this error: 03-Nov 16:35 bacula-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at dird_conf.c:1589 Attempt to define second pool resource named "SVEXP-Pool" is not permitted. Why? What's wrong here? Cheers and thanks in advance -- ReynierPM -- Come build with us! The BlackBerry(R) Developer Conference in SF, CA is the only developer event you need to attend this year.
