Run a second instance of the job instead, i.e. duplicate the job definition, change its name, possibly change the level, storage and pool assigned to it. Also make sure the clients allow more than one concurrent job. This should work, but it will not be possible to mrege data from the two jobs, i.e. you can't restore from the newly-created full job plus differential and incrementals from the existing jobs. If you expect to restore single files only, this will not be a problem, but full system restores will need to be started with manually selecting the jobs to restore, and might end up with inconsistent results. > bacula 2.0.3 > fedora core 5 > just over 2TB of disk available, 1TB allocated, RAID 5 > DLT-8000 single tape drive One to two TB to DLT 8000 is truly a big task...
