I see your point Egoltz, no matter what i think, all the options in my mind always reach a dead end. The only option i'm thinking now is to have Active/Inactive Director (like failover) through internet, that way i'll have all the catalog issue solved, then i can replicate the volumes like norma

Good afternoon, Will a standard replication work for this purpose?. I explain, this way of course you will be able to have a replicated database state. But what you really need isn't the snapshot of both members, database and storage daemon at the same moment in a concrete instant ?. Imagine

But you're using both directors to make backups, or the second is only a mirror waiting for dissaster?, because for example, i've an script running every day to dump the entire database to another server, then if there are any dissasters, i only have to import the last backup to a new director.

Mysql replication may in fact guard against duplicate jobids, since the same jobids will be in both databases, in theory. It's the replication lag that will be the problem. During the lag it will still be possible to create duplicate bacula jobids. -Original Message- From: Danixu86 [mail

Won't work. The problem is not mysql replication, although if mysql is the DB, then it does need to be used. The problem is bacula JobIDs as well. -Original Message- From: Danixu86 [mailto:bacula-fo...@backupcentral.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2014 11:18 AM To: bacula-users@lists.

Interesting problem. If we were just talking MySQL replication, there is a setting "increment" where you would set it to 2 in this case and no duplicate record numbers would be generated. In this case we need an "increment" setting for bacula jobids, or perhaps a "number of sites" or "sites" set
