Hello List! Got a simple question for Bacula users, because last time I didn't ask this I got burned... I'm (brand) new to Bacula. I need to use it to archive several hundred gig of video files (raw .dv) to DLT, using an Adic Fastor (seven slot). Restores will be common during editting but since I want to keep the tapes forever there will be no real media rotation.
The hope is to save up ~200gb of video and leave Bacula to archive (AND VERIFY) it overnight to the seven DLT4 tapes that the changer holds. That, and a restore sometimes, is all I really want to do. >From what I read, Bacula can span volumes, which is a must. But I wanted to make sure the above workflow sounds workable. I worked on Amanda for a long time to do this then found out it couldn't (officially) span and I had to ditch it! Anyhow thanks for all advice. Later..! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
