Hi Raul,
I think that Bacula is going to cause you many headaches with Asterisk.
Backups are (surprise!) I/O intensive and when streaming data from the
network to disk or tape it will saturate the available bandwidth. This
will cause the I/O wait time on the CPU to run high and effectively
block other processing (eg. voice traffic) for seconds at a time. Try
running a full backup during office hours and see what your users have
to say!
My recommendation is to move either Asterisk or Bacula to a separate
machine.
regards,
Drew

Well, this has become a hot topic! :p
Thinking about my original post, I was reluctant of installing my PBX
on a shared system, is a Dell PowerEdge 2950 with 2 Intel Xeon Dual
Core CPUs @2GHz (4 totals cores) and 4GB RAM which serves as Domain
Controller and File Server (Samba), central backup server (Bacula with
a LTO2 external tape drive), it has dual NIC in a bonding alb mode and
redundant PSU (each one connected to a different UPS). It has a PCI
slots in which I can install my Sangoma Remora A400D card.
But now I think the PBX will work just fine in this system, maybe
breaking the channel bonding and dedicating a NIC for the PBX and the
other NIC for the remaining task, what do you think? Or its better to
install the PBX on a dedicated system? Let me know your opinions!
Regards...
Raul

You're correct, it IS 100 -- but 100%. Expressed in decimal format,
this is of course 1.0 -- and as each cpu has this average, 4.0

that no threads regularly wait for execution. This worldcommunitygrid
you mentioned binds your cpu by design it sounds like.
