I'm thinking about setting up BackupPC on servers attached to a shared/clustered file system (OCFS2) but wanted to know if it's possible for multiple servers to share the same top level data directory as long as the servers are backing up different clients? I'm guessing that if the servers use different top level directories then the servers don't yet have the ability to create hardlinks from another data pool even if the data directory is on the same file system?
Which is also related to the next question, is it possible for BackupPC to use multiple top level data directories across different file systems? The reason for this is that OCFS2 currently supports 16TB per file system. If we begin to run out of space on one file system can we setup BackupPC to start using another top level data directory or is it "smart" enough to start using another data directory automatically if we specify it in the setup somehow? +---------------------------------------------------------------------- |This was sent by [EMAIL PROTECTED] via Backup Central. |Forward SPAM to [EMAIL PROTECTED] +---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net Project: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
