Either I'm not understanding you (quite possible :-) or you're trying to make this overly complicated. From what you've just written, it sounds like I'm already doing this. I have bacula configured to backup about five systems to file storage on a RAID array in the wee hours of every morning. Then, once a week I have a bacula job which backs up all of the file storage files onto a tape. The only disadvantage that I can see to this is that in order to restore a file from tape, I actually will have to run two restore jobs -- the first one from a tape to a file storage file & the second from file storage to a system. As Kern & Arno already have mentioned in earlier replies it is not possible, this way, to restore directly from tape.
