Greetings,

I'm trying to setup bacula to do a monthly full backup of a 1.2 TB
array to a Qualstar TLS-4210 AIT2 library.

My first attempt did not go well, I posted on June 14:

this job eventually failed:

So, I was thinking of trying again, this time using a Dell Optiplex GX270
(P4 3.2 GHz/ 1 GB mem), as the Bacula Director and leaving the PowerEdge
as the Bacula File and Storage server.

Any comments/advice would be appreciated.

thanks,
 alan
