I have a single file server with 2x 512 GB hard drives. Ive been given a bunch of older hard drisk to backup to:
1x 80 IDE GB 1x 100 IDE GB 2x 200 IDE GB 1x 320 IDE GB Actual disk usage on the file server that I will backup is only 200 GB but growing, and I would like to set something up that may allow me to easilly add and remove different size hard drives in the future. In case a backup drive dies, Id like to turn off the backup server, remove the dead one, install a new one, boot, configure, and let bacula play with it. My concern is on: letting bacula access any number of drives letting bacula know the size available on each making sure that volumes just span through all available drives. I noticed disk-changer script, but I googled for a couple hours and found no documentation at all, so Ive been wondering if someone here may have done something like this already and may share an example or, someone please confrim to me that this http://www.bacula.org/dev-manual/Autochanger_Resource1.html#SECTION003220000000000000000 is the right direction where I should go? and some details, on my speciffic setup may help oorrr! is there a simpler way? I dont like complicating things, I was hoping on Device = /disk1, /disk2, /disk3, /disk4, /disk5 straight into the sd configuration ;) thanks __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
