Hi Bacula People,
It will be painfully apparent that I am new to bacula.
Our organisation performs a backup to two SDLTs every week (it takes two to
hold the full set). Every four weeks, they want to relabel the tapes as
'monthly-XX', do the weekly back-up to it, take that week's tapes off site.

You are adding your message to the top of the email. That makes me

Arno,
Most of your suggestions helped alot, but now I ran into another gotcha.
Now the restore part is almost completely automated, but here's the
problem: If no tape is 'mounted' in bacula, the operator never gets the

Anyone. I am still stuck here.
Thx in advance.

Hello,
Is there a reason to splitt the catalog in seperate catalogs for different
clients?
At the moment all clients are backed up to the same file storage. So I think I
will just use a catalog for all of them and write it to backup disk in the
AfterJob. Is this a stupid idea?

My planned process for "bare metal recovery" of my backup server is to:
1) install a minimal system + bacula
2) restore all

Hello,
The manual proposes to run "ntbackup backup systemstate /F c:\systemstate.bkf"
before the backup of a windows machine.
Is there a possiblity to have it run by the before-job?
I don't want to rely on maintain synchronous schedules.

the question is a bit off-topic since it's not the Bacula software
itself that's giving me a headache (although I assumed that first).
I'm using a DDS3 streamer here with a pool of roughly 20 tapes. Recently
