Hi, we use bacula a long time(6 years) to backup linux and windows server. It works create!!!
Now one harddisk (Raid5) is defect in the bacula server and we consider to buy a new server. I think we can buy a large server with tapelibrary (DELL TL2000 LTO3). Our consideration are: - We want to backup to disk - We want hold the backups 7 days on Disk - We want a full backup each day (300GB) - We want each full harddisk backup are copied to a tape in the tapelibrary I think we will have a harddisk (RAID5) with 4,5 TB. So we can hold a lot of full backups on harddisk. 4500GB(total) - 300GB(one fullBCK) = 4200GB 4200GB / 300GB = 14 days We know how to backup to tape, and we know how to backup to volumes(filesystem). BUT, how can we backup to harddisk and then to tape in one backup job? We dont want to run the same job twice with different device! The tapelibrary can hold 24 LTO3 (400/800GB) tapes. So we have 5 tapes = Daily 4 tapes = weekly 12 tapes = yearly 3 tapes = manual backup Regards, Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
