Hi All,

I was wondering if you all might be able to give me thoughts on something
we are looking at implementing. We have a windows file server which we
currently backup using bacula.

This runs completely without issue and is generally rock solid. We are
however going to be hitting a bump in the road soon, one of the shares on
the file server is for our design team. The files are all very large and
the versioninig system they use is a little odd, it results in us having
lots of files of very similar nature

They have a lot of historical files from projects which are closed off now
but for business reasons cannot be archived off.

We are coming close to a time now where our monthly full back up will
exceed the window we have available to us.

To this end I am looking at the Bacula de-duplication option to create a
base job for the file server, I would then reference this base job in the
back up of the file server in the hope of achieving 1) some space saving
and 2) an decrease in time it takes to backup

Does any one have any opinions on this as to whether or not it will work
and is it a good idea or not ?

Cheers,
John
