You leave Storage in your Pool config as the Storage name, it’s telling the
Pool “all the media for this pool can be accessed on Storage File and Storage
{} says you can access any of the volumes of that pool on these three Devices
FileStorage, File1, File2.
Again think of the Device as a virtual tape drive, If you had a tape library
with 2 drives you would have 2 devices and each drive can read tapes from that
pool.
Pool {
Name = AI-Incremental
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bareos can automatically recycle
Volumes
Auto Prune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 2 months # How long should jobs be kept?
Maximum Volume Bytes = 50G # Limit Volume size to something
reasonable
Label Format = "AI-Incremental-"
Volume Use Duration = 7d
Storage = File
Next Pool = AI-Consolidated # consolidated jobs go to this pool
Action On Purge=Truncate
}
Get this working first and then ping me back about my migrations, I do it for
two reasons, one is I have limited disk space and cannot hold all backups on
them. I also take a long term archive job I take off site.
