I'm reading the "Job resource" section: http://www.bacula.org/5.0.x-manuals/en/main/main/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION001830000000000000000 and it contains the following: run = "Nightly-backup level=%l since=\"%s\" storage=DDS-4" I take it the difference here is this will run the copy as a separate job, rather than writing the same job to 2 places at once? It looks like the clone job would do what I want for now except for one small detail -- and that also applies to writing 2 copies at once: I'm trying to guard against media failure. If the main media fills up and it doesn't fail, I'll pull it out of the jukebox and stick a blank one in. At this point I want to overwrite the copy. The way I know to set that up is in the Pool resource: AutoPrune & *Retention settings. However, it seems I can't specify Pool in the clone job, all I can specify is Storage. Is there a way to configure my clone Storage to automatically overwrite existing data? Or is clone job a wrong thing for me?
