This is exactly what I'm doing right now. I trigger my script via udev for add / remove events: # cat /etc/udev/rules.d/local.rules KERNEL=="xvdb1", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/root/vol_manager.pl" KERNEL=="xvdb1", ACTION=="remove", RUN+="/root/vol_manager.pl" KERNEL=="xvdc1", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/root/vol_manager.pl" KERNEL=="xvdc1", ACTION=="remove", RUN+="/root/vol_manager.pl" This auto-runs the vol_manager script (which I posted earlier), then that script uses entries in /dev/disk/by-uuid to match up with the vchanger.conf config. My question now is this... For this setup, the MediaType is File with 10 slots. I have a max volume size of 40Gb. When these 10 x 40Gb slots / volumes get full, will Bacula automatically try to create another volume? How does it handle things when I hit 400Gb (10 x 40Gb volumes)? -- Steven Haigh Email: net...@crc.id.au Web: http://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9001 6090 - 0412 935 897 Fax: (03) 8338 0299
