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.

So, because I can't do this, which is the better way to organize Pools? 
I mean for example I work with 3 different departments both of them have 
at least 5 or more servers who need backup services. How you organize this?

The "Name" for each pool has to be unique.

Try something like

#Client 1
Pool {
  Name = SVEXP01-Pool
  ...
  ...
}

#Client 2
Pool {
  Name = SVEXP02-Pool
  ...
  ...
}

You can not have a Pool resource defined more than 1 time.

[Bacula-users] Organizing pools

2009-11-03 Thread ReynierPM
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
