Hi All,
I've recently implemented Bacula as the storage agent for 14 Debian
Sarge servers writing to disk and 1 server writing to tape. Great. What
I now need to do is use Bacula to create a DVD image for me. Ideally
what I'm looking for is the option or ability to use Bacula as the
transfer medium. I have the bacula-fd installed on the client server and
want to pull across to the bacula-sd the various files/directories I
want. Once there I want to write those files to DVD. BUT, I don't want
to write them as the bacula volume format but as the standard file
format they exist in. The idea being that in the event of a serious
fault you simply want to insert the DVD into a machine somewhere and
then copy the files to the appropriate locations.
Sadly I'm at a loss as to how to do this. I've looked at the Pool
options and it states;
Backup
*Archive
*Cloned
*Migration
*Copy
*Save
With no reference to what the "*" means nor any details about what these other
modes mean. I was hoping that the 'Save' option means that the data is quite clearly
saved to the destination indicated by the bacula-sd but can't find any info either way.
I know I could do this by simply tarring up the correct directories and then
writing them to disk but then I lose all the options that bacula gives me.
Any help at this point would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gavin Conway*
