Thank you for your prompt reply. Pragmatically speaking that probably 
makes the most sense. I had thought about it but decided to pose the 
question to see what other people thought.

[Bacula-users] simplifying backups

2023-01-25 Thread Alan Polinsky
For several years I have used two tape drives (an LTO2 and LTO3) and two 
Bacula instances backing up my Lan. As expected, the LTO2 drive finally 
failed. As a test, I moved all backups to the LTO3 with some success. I 
was wondering if I could unload the entire catalog from the LTO2 
environment, load it into the LTO3, and just abandon the failed LTO2 
one. Additionally, would I have to make any modifications to 
configurations so that the remaining LTO3 drive could read and write 
LTO2 tapes? I am on Bacula 9.6.7 using Slackware.



Thank you.
