Using a File storage and copying those manually or by script to DVD is the official Bacula staff solution. But I don't like it. I suggest you download 2.0.2 from Sourceforge and use that. Backup & Restore both works with it, but I have no idea about Recycle. I have 100 DVD+RW discs, and I'm now writing to #30. Takes some time until all 100 is full... I used to use a DAT tape, but as it died, I had to go with a lot cheaper DVD. And then I downgraded from latest version to the 2.0.2. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
