Hello List, this post is somehow related to this threat: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=7722658&forum_id=8833 where Kern Sibbald tried to explain why and how you should write or not write to DVD.
I just wanted to summarize this here, to see if i understood it right, and if someone else does it one of those ways. I think there are 3 ways, please correct me if there are more and better ways: a) Check if the DVD is blank or not, then do the backup to dvd. Source: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=12193195 b) Write 650MB CD volumes and write them to a DVD with a script: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=11483865 c) Maybe the best way: Use a DVD-RAM Drive: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=9031377 I guess going for solution no. c) would be the best?! If not c) then Misty`s script a) would be the way to go. Last but not least way b)? What do you think about the 3 ways i found? I am very new to bacula, but i hope i found all the possible ways, and that i judged them correctly.
