No, not RR. I meant what I wrote: I have different IP addresses for my SD and create different SD entries in bacula-dir.conf... all of them point to the same SD. > I have different IP addresses for my SD and create different SD > entries in bacula-dir.conf... all of them point to the same SD. > > Nice, I didn't know you could do that.
