[Bacula-users] My backup schedule overlaps. Can it be fixed?

In English, I want to do a full backup on the 1st and the 16th of every month. I also want to do a differential backup every Sunday and an Incremental Monday-Saturday. Here is my config: Run = Level=Full Pool="Full-Pool Developer-PC" on 1,16 at 0:05 Run = Level=Differential Pool

Hi, we are using a Tandberg autchanger with eight LTO3 tapes, which could save 400/800 GB of data. Herre is the definition of the device in bacula-sd.conf: Device { Name = Drive-1 Media Type = Ultrium-LTO3 Archive Device = /dev/st0 AutomaticMount = yes; AlwaysOpen = ye

[Bacula-users] Questions about spooling

Hi, I am doing some tests about spooling. I have created a spool filesystem for testing purposes. I decided to try a quiet small one - just 10 GB. Well, I get an ugly perfomance (<10MB/s) with this one. So I assume that the spool file system is too small - is this assumption right? To get a bi
