[Bacula-users] actual number of volumes and numvols do not match..

2012-03-09 Thread Jeff MacDonald
2 questions in this email 1: I have a volume that has 913 1 gig files in it, however the pools table in the catalog indicates 438 in the "numvols" column... any reason why? 2: what does the volstatus "Error" actually mean in the media table? ? -- Jeff MacDonald j...@terida.com 902 880 7375 --

The one additional thought I have is to keep the backup file set as small as possible; network traffic and the length of your backup window will be a concern.   If you have hundreds or thousands of servers, odds are that they are all identical - especially if they are managed by chef. So you do
