well, ive made some pretty fair progress. ive got to where i can get the job
to start... but it wont move. for my first test example, im trying to get my
dev server to back itself up.
this is the message im getting:
*messages
06-Jan 15:38 fbsd62-1-dir: Start Backup JobId 2,
Job=Client1.2007-01-06_15.38.53
06-Jan 15:38 fbsd62-1-sd: Job Client1.2007-01-06_15.38.53 waiting. Cannot find
any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
Storage: "FileStorage" (/usr/backups)
Media type: File
Pool: Default
in the file definition, ive specified the /, and added /usr/backups to the
omitted files. as ive mentioned before, im trying to set up bacula to only
backup to files. my current backup server has:
108GB drive for incrementals/cumulative
550GB drive for full backups
270GB drive for monthly backups
i keep incrementals for 6 weeks, fulls for 2 months, and montly for 3 months
(thats all the space i can hold for monthlys, for now). somehow when i
migrate this windows server to FreeBSD/Bacula, ill need to effectively use
these disks based on how much data i backup and how long its retained (i
backup about 90 GB on full jobs, sometimes 3-5GB on dailies).
anyway, can anyone point me in the right direction ?
cheers,
jonathan
