Is it possible to use Bacula to backup to both disk and tape?
For example, you could do a monthly full backup to disk and daily
incremental to tape. I tried creating two jobs for each client, but
when the incremental ran Bacula could not find a suitable full backup
volume (probably because it's located on disk) and proceeded to do a
full backup to tape.
I don't know how else you would configure this because you can only
specify (as far as I know) one storage device in the Job Resource. Any
ideas?
Don't just read this and say yes this seems right - check with the
manual and do some testing, Im not 100% confidenta nd Im not running the
latest bacula.
Having said that...
You can overide the device in the schedule and have a separate schedule
for the diff and the fulls but use the same fileset.
Howevever I have done this and had problems with restores, because
bacula (if I recall corretly) would only restore from one storage device
for a restore job.
So what I have is separate file sets for disk and tape and that means I
get two full backups and two sets of diffs for each (identical file set).
