Not only is it possible, this is the only currently recommended and supported method of backing up to DVDs using Bacula: Back up to a disk pool configured for a maximum Volume size of 4.7GB (9.4GB for dual-layer DVDs), then separately write the resulting volumes to DVDs. Direct DVD writing in Bacula was deprecated because it could not be made to work reliably. -- Phil Stracchino, CDK#2 DoD#299792458 ICBM: 43.5607, -71.355 ala...@caerllewys.net ala...@metrocast.net p...@co.ordinate.org Renaissance Man, Unix ronin, Perl hacker, Free Stater It's not the years, it's the mileage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
