Hi. We are considering migrating to Bacula (from what we have seen - we are impressed!) and a have a question or two I hope you might help me answer.
Amanda has a feature I really like. When the correct tape is missing, broken or full Amanda just spools everything. If you have a large spool, backup can run for days without hick up. So, when one has fixed the tape, one just runs amflush and all is well. How does Bacula react to having its tape drive missing? If I need an urgent restore whilst backup is running - what are the consequences of aborting a backup run. Can Bacula handle several tape drives? Will I be able to run parallel backup and restore? As LTO3 has a really, really high throughput (80MB/s, if I recall) I don't see much chance in using both drives in parallel. Any other thoughts from users who have migrated from Arkeia to Bacula would be very welcome. TIA Per. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
