the fileset is defined server-side. how can the server include stuff
that is created on the client?
hi!
we have servers that operate with several independent raid arrays that
contain (lots of) data to backup.
currently we create tar files of the data-to-be-backed-up on each raid
and would like bacula to pick it up from there.
we have a script that does the tar handling that is run as

hi!
reading the documentation i understand that you should have several
volumes for concurrent backups, on different devices/directories. (i
work on disk for now.)
However some people here on the list seem to be doing well with
concurrent backups to only one volume. is that actually true or am i

hi!
Currently our bacula system cycles through our servers and for each it
initiates the respective backup shell script, waits for its
completion, transfers the data and continues on to the next box.
This cycle is rather predictable and repetitiv. On some servers, where

thanks, that helped a lot.
for postgresql the column and table names were lower case, though.

hi!
does dbcheck even check if backups referenced in the database are
still there on the harddisk? i am backing up to disk currently and
would like to make sure no orphaned catalog entries remain after some
files were deleted the other day.

Hi!
when using a new pool (file storage, is that the same?) for the first
time i get this error:
Fatal error: catreq.c:487 Attribute create error. Pool record not
found in Catalog.
do i have to initiate the pool? how do i do that?

i am looking for a script that would re-sync my volumes and the
catalog as it is stored in the database (postgresql 8.1 in my case).
The volumes are full, so i try to get rid of some bloated, unnecessary backups.

auto-pruning
