Hi, to be honest, I'm quite confused by this topic myself :) Still, I'd like to put some of my NetWorkerized logic out for discussion, I don't know if this is implementable, though. Maybe You've been thinking this through already and it's not achieving what is needed, I'm not sure. But it appears simple.
on NetWorker I have locations for a tape, i.e. JukeboxA, JukeboxB and offsite. I'd define a max of one bacula volume per external device, and have some little tweak to automatically [u]mount the filesystem and mark the volume off/on-site, maybe just using a modified manual-changer script. I can't see why bacula should care about the *filesystem* it's having a volume inside, having a location USB-stick-is-in-my-pocket is more natural a concept from my point of view. Florian [*]Maybe someone with some more insight should look at the nsr-dvd support available on sourceforge. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf > Of Kern Sibbald > Anyway, concerning Bacula working with these USB removable > filesystems.
