We back up about 200 workstation clients currently backing up, I would
say out of that; 80 of them are laptops. I found that rescheduling the
backup on failure seems to work with a 10 hour window. This is added to
a JobDefs as such:
This way, when a user comes in later on in the day and missed th
So here's one for the list!
Recently, due to file storage space, management has decided that each
client (desktop machines) will have 1 full backup done once a week.
This is more for Disaster Recovery (DR) than retrieving data from a 'oh
I lost my file) client.
Here's the layout:

Not a problem! Glad my little journal helped someone out :-) I need to add
to the wiki here one of these days. Just finished doing a BMR on a windows
XP machine with a custom System Rescue CD containing the bacula-fd. I think
I have a few more tricks in my little book.

Mark,
I have bat successfully working on an RHEL5 machine. I keep a journal of
all my successes/failures, and was able to look back through it to find out
how I installed it properly. This may or may not be what you are looking
for, but I will post the entry in its entirety

Michael,
The .spec file is located in the bacula source (tar.gz)
(/bacula-3.0.0/platforms/redhat/bacula.spec). There is a centos 5.0 build
in there :-)
To build clients for centos I did the following:

t might just be easier to remote to each of
the 150 machines and manually install the windows client. But would love to
get some feedback from other people that have pushed out 100+ client
installs.

I know this question has beened asked a million times on this list (And yes,
I went through the nabble's bacula-users archives over 2 days) but I think
my situation is slightly alittle more unique. So if anyone could help me
out, I would appreciate it!
Here's the background:

Thanks for the thoughts!
<< I just don't know that Bacula will quite fit here, because we have
travelers on a regular basis overseas, it's not uncommon for some of
them to not be in the office for a week or two, back in for a day or
part of a day, and then back out again. But it's entire

results come 14 days from now.

centralized location.
Has anyone done a backup to this scale with such a large variety of servers,

Thank you for your time,
