Hi, Rob, Thanks for the response.
1. I'm only using 25% of my 2TB Dropbox account, so I don't expect storage to be full. This particular cloud server is tiny, just a single CPU, 50GB storage, 2GB RAM. The biggest file I managed to write successfully to my rclone/Dropbox mount is 1GB: When I tried to write a bigger file, I got an "out of memory" error, in hindsight I suppose this was to be expected. I'm trying to keep costs down by renting only a very small cloud machine until such time I need the capacity increase. root@c1:~# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/MylesDearDropBox/Backup/someuniquefilename.img bs=1G count=1 1+0 records in 1+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB, 1.0 GiB) copied, 9.12953 s, 118 MB/s root@c1:~# ls -l /mnt/MylesDearDropBox/Backup/someuniquefilename.img -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1073741824 Dec 4 19:31 /mnt/MylesDearDropBox/Backup/someuniquefilename.img root@c1:~# so I'll tune down my bacula director config for max file size of 1G. 2. I'm still confused by what exactly "Vol-xxx" is supposed to be, I see there are config settings for setting this name, but I only create the device files MylesMpwrware<x> and point to them in in bacula-sd configuration as "Archive Device". Should I also be creating the "Vol-xxx" files as well? I did see the first of my "Archive Device" files filling up: root@c1:~# ls -l /mnt/MylesDearDropBox/Backup/bacula/archive/ total 20971544 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21474860756 Dec 4 03:27 MylesMpwrware1 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 4 03:04 MylesMpwrware1.l -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 4 01:00 MylesMpwrware2 root@c1:~# I'm sure with a little more banging my head against the wall things will start to make sense.
