What I'm after is a more hands-off approach. A simple set-it and forget-it feature. I need Bacula to "make these decisions" without any human intervention. If the last tape with Append status is not available bacula should do the following: 1. Notify the backup admin 2. Then wait 2 hour

What is process for removing tapes that are not yet full from that tape library? When I remove a not-yet-full tape from tape library and neglect to change its status to "Full", Bacula does not alert me that it's waiting for that tape to be mounted. Furthermore, it does not attempt to use ano

Hi! I don't think bacula uses oids, however, it doesn't hurt if you include them (I think). What pgsql version are you using? (you said 8, but: 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4). You could also use online backups, and do WAL archiving (maybe even continuous WAL archiving), here: http://www.postgresql.org

Hi folks, we recently changed our backup policy from tape- to disk-based, so I created two pools based on separate filestorage devices (two separate dirs) to hold the full and incremental backup volumes. Today I tried a restore job using both incr. and full volumes, and when bacula (5.2.6 on ce

Hi all, I create a pool, and 3 jobs which works on that pool (a full, base and incremental job). My question is : How make file retention and job retention differents for the 3 jobs, but on the same pool ? I see I can give file retention parameter on pool, but not on jobs. Can I do tha
