[Bacula-users] Large job, many small storage devices

2011-10-25 Thread David Noriega
Is it possible to have a backup job write to more then one storage device? I have a Drobo, total capacity is 16TB, but it presents those as 2TB luns(could move to 8TB luns). Having it backup to files, is it possible for it to fill up one lun the move to the next? And no using LVM to make on big sto

I'm backing up our home directories, about 10TB. I haven't really timed things out yet, so I'm not sure if a full backup would finish in time. But its the schedule the boss wants. On Fri, Feb 11, 2011 at 1:11 PM, Phil Stracchino wrote: > On 02/11/11 12:47, David Noriega w

Why is there both incremental and differential? I thought they were mutually exclusive. On Fri, Feb 11, 2011 at 10:35 AM, J. Echter wrote: > Am 11.02.2011 16:44, schrieb David Noriega: >> I'd like to run incremental backups twice a week, but also need full >> backups done

[Bacula-users] Running both full and inc backups

2011-02-11 Thread David Noriega
I'd like to run incremental backups twice a week, but also need full backups done every two/three(TBD) weeks. Is there a way to do this without setting up a full and then an inc backup job? Because that would lead to 'two' backup catalogs from which to pull a restore from? David -- Personally, I

[Bacula-users] Ideas for a backup strategy

2010-09-16 Thread David Noriega
I need some help coming up with a good backup strategy for our situation. I have about 10TB of user home directories(and about the same for lab shares). I've gone through the manual, tutorials, etc and have gotten the basics of Bacula working. I have it setup using our SL48 and its currently backin
