I really can not help with that. I have used bacula for over a decade.
I have not looked at a guide in at least 8 years..

Well, I sort of have all the tapes in 2 pools by the looks of it. I
recall futzing around and setting up a pool with a prefix of "BACULA"

Well bacula-console-qt does not seem very robust. Everytime I try to
run a job it core dumps.
If it matters, I am double-hopskotched from my Mac to a gateway to my
backup host using ssh -X twice. But I do that a fair bit with no
issues.
So I'll see what I can make of running the job from the no

Well I'm following the book and getting some pretty basic errors right

be missing some items like a pool definition for one. Pretty sure I

Your wish is my command! :-)
This is largely defaults from Ubuntu 12.10 with not a whole lot of changes by me
Perhaps I should be looking at this instead :

Hi Alan,
check the mail archive, I think Ken pointed out a recently published
ebook about bacula. While I haven't read it myself
OK, I have obviously found the manual at
http://www.bacula.org/manuals/en/ but wow it does not seem to be
suited to someone who has no idea what they are doing here. I've got

Hi,
I want to change my bacula backup from File to Tape into File to Disk to
Tape.
I have 40 Servers, I would like to save the files at first on Disk and
later on Tapes.
how can I do that with bacula?
Is it possible to save the Files at another place ( other Server).
We use bacula 3. 0. 2 at the
