Thanks Ian,
No worries. :)
there's written that partition must be readonly mounted or unmounted. Do you have any experience with partition which is mounted in rw mode?
I have no expericence with this myself. :)
Backup will be run during late night hours and there won't be any active user. I know ufsdump can live with this(however it's not recomended).
I suspect ufs dump does much the same thing as bacula, (and the man page would seem to imply this) so it may work, however it /really/ isn't a good idea, as it can only take one write during the backup to mess it up. You may however be ablt to get by by fscking the restored fs though. (All untested.)
Will Bacula handle rw mount too?
Should do. :)
Cheers,
Ian
