Ok, the usual idea is to create two storage devices, one using dump1, the other using dump2 as storage. Then, link these storages with pools, link the pools to the jobs or job levels, and that's all :-) Suggesting how to setup these links is impossible for us, because we know neither the capacity of the disks you have, nor the size of your backups for your clients. If you have clients of more or less similar size, disks of similar size, and expect your differential and incremental backups to use much less space than the full ones, assigning half of the clients to dump1 and the others to dump2 would be the most reasonable setup. > Last night I got the following error with my current volume/pool setup. > Does anybody know what that means or how to fix it? > > > > 02-Jul 11:57 backup1-dir: BeforeJob: run command > "/etc/bacula/make_catalog_backu > p t**** t****" > 02-Jul 11:57 backup1-dir: Start Backup JobId 45, > Job=BackupCatalog.2007-07-02_11 > .57.21 > 02-Jul 11:57 backup1-sd: Volume "Full_0002" previously written, moving to > end of > data. > 02-Jul 11:58 backup1-sd: Job write elapsed time = 00:00:10, Transfer rate > = 38.9 > 2 M bytes/second > 02-Jul 11:58 backup1-dir: BackupCatalog.2007-07-02_11.57.21 Fatal error: > Volume > Files at 91 being set to 1 for Volume "Full_0002". This is incorrect. > 02-Jul 11:58 backup1-sd: BackupCatalog.2007-07-02_11.57.21 Fatal error: > Error ge > tting Volume info: 1992 Update Media error. VolFiles=1, CatFiles=91 This indicates that the catalog is kind of broken. It looks like your previous job used the volume Full_0002 correctly, but the BackupCatalog job failed because the number of files on the volume and stored in the catalog don't match. That might be caused by the previous job, which perhaps truncated that volume after the BackupCatalog job was already started. Job reports for the jobs using Full_0002 previously would be helpful.
