When you deploy bacula-fd on the cluster service then it will be a fully
cluster friendly solution. I do not understand why do you suggest something
different.

It is the different problem. Yes, bacula could be a more robust regarding
network problems.

Yes.

In real world bacula-fd can successfully handle both cluster and
non-cluster resources. I've deployed a lot of real clusters this way
including Linux, Unix and Windows solutions. You can ignore that, no
problem.
