Hello all, I am new at Bacula and am trying to work out a ] reasonable scheme for backing up my home network. I had some questions I hope someone can answer...
1) Sometimes my Bacula server machine is down at the scheduled backup time. No problem, I just kick of the backup jobs manually the next morning. Is there some way to start all the jobs as though the time was last night? Right now I start each of the five client jobs, and the catalog job individually. (I was a little surprised there is not something like a JobSet resource for aggregating several jobs into one schedulable unit.) 2) I write each job to a separate (file) backup volume (to be written to DVD later). Is there any point to writing .bsr files? They are for locating a particular job within a volume that contains multiple jobs, yes? 3) Is there any supported way to change the labels of existing (file) volumes? I have changed the label format several times and don't want to wait until some of the old volumes expire after a year to get rid of the volumes with "weird" names. Thanks for any information/advice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
