Re: [Bacula-users] Volumes with JBODs and RAID question

2009-02-07 Thread Kevin Keane
When backing up to a hard disk, bacula treats each FILE as a volume, rather than each disk. So, no, you can't do that. You could theoretically configure bacula to use one file (i.e., volume) that fills each complete hard disk, but that's a pretty bad idea. In any case, if you want to use bacula

[Bacula-users] Changed LabelFormat

2009-02-07 Thread ML mail
Hello, I have changed the LabelFormat to a new format but unfortunately Bacula still reuses the old format names. What do I need to do ? I was thinking I could simply delete all the backup files on the filesystems but I have the feeling there must be a nicer way... Btw: yes I am doing backups

[Bacula-users] how to skip job when missed

2009-02-07 Thread Elvar
I seem to be having a problem where Bacula keeps trying to run backups of days that were missed. For example, it will run a Monday job on Tuesday on Tuesday media and then run the Tuesday job on Tuesday media. How do I make Bacula automatically cancel and skip a days job if it doesn't sta

[Bacula-users] Volumes with JBODs and RAID question

2009-02-07 Thread Mag Gam
Hello All, We are planning to implement Bacula in our test lab for evaluation. On our backup site we have 6 x 750GB disks and I was wondering if I really need to RAID5 since this is a backup server. After skimming thru Bacula's manual, I noticed there are some sophisticated volume management tec

[Bacula-users] How does the FD find the SD?

2009-02-07 Thread Kevin Keane
