I used to have different names for full backups but I decided on a
single pool for simplicity. It is easy enough to tell which volumes
are used for full and incremental backups.
I meant for my last post to go to the list as well.

Hi,
I just wanted to share an experience I had setting up a backup this weekend.
Quick overview:
The file daemon on my Windows server was overloading the storage daemon on
my Ubuntu machine. This happened when trying to backup many small, image
files with compression turned on. Turning off comp
I have some experience with this on my own systems. Make sure the
fileset name has not been changed. Also make sure you physically
restart bacula rather than reload it, as I've found reload doesn't
always work the way I think it should.
Sincerely,

Hi,
After fine-tuning the definition of a Fileset resource (adding a directory
exclusion), I omitted to enable the 'Ignore Fileset Changes' setting.
Obviously, the corresponding next incremental backup got promoted to a full
one, which I cancelled.
However, enabling 'Ignore Fileset Changes' the
I feel like I'm missing something:
If I'm doing all of my backups to disk, is there an advantage to
maintaining three distinct pools?
Thanks!

I spent some time trying various options such as changing the bus speed
and ID (its now ID 15) and channel.
The bios is set to disabled, however this is not used anyway. Bios is
only used if a bootable device is detected.
I then reset each channel to its defaults, th

Hi John,
The card you use has its own BIOS boot functions, you should check which
options are relevant, and either cancel them, or cancel "external storage"
or something of the sorts in your motherboard.

Hi Lise,
No, your server certainly can handle this. The Process ID 267 (maybe a

This is a limitation of bacula, in order to free up space you must
prune your volumes. The volume retention setting sets how long the
volumes will live in the database, but it is up to you to delete them.
If you need more space you can just prune them manually from the
console.

hi guys,
i did some tests a while ago to try to backup open files using bacula on Vista.

I suppose it should work. We used an external Tandberg LTO2 drive in the
