When backing up to a disk/RAID system, how do you guys mirror your raid array? If you were to mirror in real-time and something got corrupted it could cause problems on your mirror. Do you mirror once a day? What software do you use to mirror your array? is rsync good enough?
When testing bacula I notice restores always expect the client machine to be up so you can restore directly to it. What would you do if the client machine was dead or just not alive on the network? Is there a way to specify a restore point other than the machine itself that the data was originally on? If using vchanger and a jbod setup, if a disk was to fail, how does this failure impact bacula? How would you figure out what was on that drive so you can re-run backups and how would you cleanup the bacula database? thank you all for any information you can provide, mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
