Hi,

I have a small HA cluster using shared storage.  The shared storage
mounting is handled by the cluster software and follows the services that
require the shared storage points.  Obviously I'd like to back up this
shared storage.

Since these disks move around, I'd like to not just point bacula at each
box and backup everything including the shared storage, as then restores
become a problem (same files spread across multiple host jobs..)

My solution, I think, is to simply run a separate director configured for
the hostname of the HA service it is running and backup just the HA data.
This should enable bacula to find the right HA service (and thus the disks
underneath) and bacula that data.

So my questions:
  - Does this seem sensible, or is there a more elegant solution?
  - Is there a command line option to tell the -fd to look at an alternate
    config file?

Thanks for any insight y'all might have to share.
