I want to setup migration and need some thoughts on the best way to configure things in order to achieve what I want.
I have a backup server running bacula 2.4.4. It runs backups over the network for 9 different servers and stores them to hard disk. I run a single full backup once a week and differential backups every night the rest of the week in a 7 day cycle. This is fine, but now I would like to migrate my backups to tape and store the tape off-site each day. My thought is to move the hard drive backups to a single day cycle and use the tapes for a 14 day cycle. That way I never have to worry about disk space as there is always only a single day of backups stored on the disks. This also means that the previous nights backups are stored securely off-site as soon as they are migrated to tape. So basically what is the best configuration for doing this? My biggest challenge is configuring the Pools/Volumes/Jobs in a layout that is ideal for this setup. How should I approach that? Or should I be taking a different approach to this? +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by i...@bonnergeneral.org via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lotusphere 2011 Register now for Lotusphere 2011 and learn how to connect the dots, take your collaborative environment to the next level, and enter the era of Social Business. http://p.sf.net/sfu/lotusphere-d2d _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
