The last time I asked about this there was skepticism about using Amazon Glacier for cloud storage of backups generated by Bacula.
I still have some interest in this particularly for off site backups for disaster recovery at least for occasional snapshots. Has anyone actually had success using Glacier with Bacula? I have done some minimal tests using https://github.com/uskudnik/amazon-glacier-cmd-interface/blob/master/doc/Scripting.rst It's not very usable for daily backups as is. The backup volumes get appended to until they reach their maximum and would be sent repeatedly until they hit the max and a new volume is created. If I got around this by some how forcing a new volume each time it would result in small files being sent to Glacier, which is not desirable. I suppose I could decouple the Glacier send from the Bacula director and just send finished volumes when a cron sees that a new one has been created. At any rate, just wondering if anyone is using Bacula with Glacier and how. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite It's a free troubleshooting tool designed for production Get down to code-level detail for bottlenecks, with <2% overhead.
