Hi list,
First off, a disclaimer: I'm not a Bacula expert, far from that. :) Novice mistakes possibly loom ahead. Now, the problem: we have the need for our Bacula SD to be on two different networks, with the intention of backups going over different links. I've searched for similar questions and answers to this and I didn't find a conclusive solution and to be clear, I'm not looking for a DNS view "hack" nor /etc/hosts "hack". I want to do it properly, if possible, via Bacula configuration alone. I need your help. I was thinking something like this: 1) create two Pools, which are 2) pointing to two Storage daemons (different addresses on the same host) and both of those 3) Storage daemons are pointing to one and the same Device. Is this configuration possible? What are the potential pitfalls (concurrency, for one, comes to mind, and that this will potentially mess up already existing backups)? Configuration excerpt below: Pool { Name = FileViaMainLink Storage = FileOtherSD } Pool { Name = FileViaOtherLink Storage = FileMainSD } Storage { Name = FileMainSD Address = main-ip.bacula.local Device = FileDevice } Storage { Name = FileOtherSD Address = other-ip.bacula.local Device = FileDevice } Device { Name = FileDevice Media Type = File } Thanks in advance!
