I'm still testing and learning bacula. I've setup a test backup from
a winxp machine having the Director on a linux (gentoo) box and FD on
a machine named chub (winxp). SD is writing to a file on reader (the
gentoo box) where reader-dir is running.

Is there a way to label two tapes in an autochanger to different pools?
It seems that there is not, but maybe I'm missing something. It
appears that you have to put one tape in the autochanger, run the label

Hello Phil,
Please always copy the list.
There is no such directive as "Number of Volumes". I don't know why it was in
the manual, and it is even more strange that no one ever complained before.
I've removed it from the doc.

I've noticed that the behavior of bacula 1.38 is different to the

In most cases you don't need it - the hardware compression of the average
tape drive is good enough for most purposes.

Hi,
I would like to configure my bacula 1.38.1 to use the current loaded blank

Is it possible, if yes how?
The background is, that we would like to have only one pool, because of
simpler tapehandling and would like to change the T

My best guess is that you did not read either the Bacula rescue manual chapter
or the README in the rescue source, and hence you failed to run the
configuration prior to trying to run make.

Hi,
Is is difficult to add a option to compress/decompress the files while

If I migrate a job from tape with compression to diskstorage I might
want software compression to save space.
Making backups to disk without compression is faster and the backup

Thanks for all your kind responses. I`ll try to go with no compression /
no signature next run and see if it makes any difference. I sure hope so :-)

I have the 1.38.1 release of bacula and it workes fine. The
MaximumNetworkBufferSize did'nt help to increase the performance, it was the
gzip-compression which resulted in very slow performance...

Hi,
Try to set MaximumNetworkBufferSize to 65536 in the file and storage
daemon configuration?
Calculating signatures can be very useful but timeconsuming so if you
are not running any verify jobs you could try to remove "signature=..."
from your FileSet.
Try to run without compression once just
