No. The SD mounts the remote storage. Not the Director. I think you need to read more about what each Bacula daemon does. The FD sends backups to the SD, not the Dir. > - how does have the director access to the LTO-4 tape of our 3 SD servers > ie from where does it know the location of the autochanger It does not need access. The SD needs access. Also, I suspect the tape will be used by only one SD. > - how to we have to configure/compile Bacula 5.0.3 for the DEDICATED SD > servers ie with the same options as we did it for the director? You... do it. I do not understand the question.
