1. Bacula Server which hosts bacula-dir, bacula-sd, PostgreSQL 2. FreeBSD based Filer with ZFS disk storage to hold Bacula volume files. This disk storage is NFS exported and mounted on the Bacula Server. ( This Filer holds only the Bacula volume files, nothing else) 1. A dedicated point to point Gigabit network between the Bacula server and the Filer 2. There is a separate LAN between Bacula clients and the Bacula server 3. I will try shifting the bacula-sd from Bacula server to Filer as suggested by both of you.
We have a setup with ZFS on linux storage mounted directly on bacula server, that works pretty well without spooling, but in your setup I would put a large(-ish, dep. on your volume size and number of concurrent jobs) SSD in the bacula server and spool data to it.
That way bacula will stream complete volumes from spool to the filer at your full bandwidth and avoid (potentially) many small writes over NFS.
