I have many Bacula servers, but one of them is with 2x1TB partitions and I've arranged different clients' backups to different folders. And because Bacula doesn't let writing multiple volumes within the same device concurrently, I have to set up a new device (for the same folder) for every job that I want to run concurrently. -- Silver ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
