It would probably be simpler to just create a second pool. Then define Storage= in the Pool resource to ensure all jobs storing to pool 1 use drive 1 and all jobs storing to pool 2 use drive 2. Then you can distribute jobs amongst the two drives just by assigning some to pool 1 and some to pool 2 in the Job resource for each client. > FYI Bacula 3.0.3 on FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE, using PostgreSQL 8.3.7 > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Come build with us!
