Hi Robert!
Das anyone has Scripts to mount these Harddisks and reports me errors it
they are not ready connected?
I use bacula to backup to two different USB hard disks, both of which
are attached to my computer, but only on one day each week. My schedule
is set to backup to one on Saturday and the other on Tuesday. (I do a
full on the first Saturday or Tuesday of the month, and a differential
thereafter.)
I suspect I will be able to help you on this.
A couple of questions, to help figure out what you want...
I don't exactly have scripts. I figured out how to get my hald (HAL
daemon) to create and mount my USB disks to two, different, paths. Then,
my bacula schedule has them backing up to that path, and if by some
chance, the pathlist isn't there, the backup fails. (This is what I
want.)
Questions for you... what operating system are you using? I'm using
Fedora Core 4 Linux, and I figured out how to get hald to recognize the
specific USB disk being powered on, and create the directory and mount the
USB disk to that pathlist. I can unmount the USB disk, and turn them off,
and hald removes the directory.
Would you be interested in the same, or a similar approach?
Oki, my Idea is, 5 Firewire/USB Harddisks, each one for an day, and an
daily fullbackup. We have about 30 GB to backup and i think pn 120 GB
External disks, connected via Firewire.
My first Problem is, how to automatically mount this Harddisks to my
Server, but hald is here an good Idea. I must look for an good Howto for it.
The Another Problem is, there are only buerau staff, so the solution
must be simple to use. I dont want someone to dismount the Harddisks.
The solution must be fully automatically.
The System is an Debian Sarge, the Firewire Controller is Texas
Instruments fully supported by Linux, the Harddisks too.
So, my Steps are:
- configure Hal to automatically mount the Harddisks to different
mountpoints.
- configure 5 different Filestorages in Bacula, each for one Harddisk.
- Label the different Harddisks
Is this an Solution bacula works on it? Can bacula backup the Server
when it found only one Volume?
Thanks for your Ideas
Barry
