Hello,
Running bacula 1.38.9 on freebsd. I'm trying to get data spooling to
work for my tape jobs, those files i offload off of disk(s) on to tape. I've
got the below configuration, but as i understand it data spooling is suppose
to increase backup speed by writing continuously to tape so it doesn't stop,
start, stop, start etc. but instead goes continuously until done? With this
configuration i do not see this happening with my drive, it's a quantum dlt
4000 connected to an adaptec 2940u scsi controller card. I'd appreciate any
pointers.
Thanks.
Dave.
