Dear Bacula users, I am looking for a backup solution for our company and found bacula on the net. We use a linux (centos 4.4) server running samba to serve our domain and windows clients. At the moment I have an Iscsi network storage of 4 TB and use the rsync commands (in a neat script) to create a backup of the drive. This script excludes the samba Recycle bins. since we are growing out of our current data store :-o I would like to buy an 13 TB (raid 6 + hotspare) sata das unit. However using my current script would need me to have 8 x 13 x 1TB = 104 backup disks :-o, this ofcourse is not an option. my idea would be a full backup on monday and a incremental every day to a single 1TB or 2TB drive.
I would like to have a backup scheme of -Monday -Tuesday -Wednesday -Thursday Friday1 and Friday2 or so, with minimal amount of external disk to swap. It would also be important that the data can be stored in a fire safe. Can bacula provide me this system, and would this be a good solution ? Or does bacula provides another solution better for this problem? key features of system: maximum storage of 13 TB. maximum of 500 Gb changing on a day (exept of some new projects rarely and not more than 1 TB) 1 weekly full backup other incremental on smaller disks external (firesafe) copy prefferably on a harddisk(usb) (due to the size/prize of tape and/or tape robot) expandable over couple of years.
