Hi,

in other backup solutions it is possible to have clients with different
backup schedules using all the same tape's. I have an autochanger and
successfully configured it with bacula. As far as I understand I have to
use different pools if I want to use different backup schedules for some
clients. Now my problem is, that a tape can only be assigned to one
pool, but I want to use it in every pool. Is that somehow possible?

I think you can acheave what you want by specifying the schedule at the job level. For example I have a job definition 'NightlyInc' which includes the schedule 'WeeklyCycle', and I use this as a basis for my main job 'NightlyInc'. I also have another job that backs up another machine using a different schedule, 'WeeklyCycleEarly', which I specify at the job level. This seems to work as I expect. I've included the 2 job definitions below:-

Job {
  Name = "NightlyInc"
  JobDefs = "NightlyIncJob"
  Write Bootstrap = "/usr/local/bacula/var/bacula/working/NightlyInc.bsr"
}

Job {
Name = "Confusion"
JobDefs = "NightlyIncJob"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycleEarly"
FileSet = "Confusion work"
Client = confusion-fd
SpoolData = yes
Write Bootstrap = "/usr/local/bacula/var/bacula/working/Confusion.bsr"
}



HTH,

Ian
