Hi,

We are trying to use bacula for archiving data which is important but
rarely accessed. I'm wondering if there is a way to specify in the
console which files we would like sent to tape without going into the
director configuration file and making a new FileSet every time.

This is what I have in the config file:

JobDefs {
  Name = "ArchiveDefs"
  Storage = LTO-3
  Pool = Default
  Type = Backup
  Messages = Standard
  Level = Full
}

# Archiving template, to be changed by console program
Job {
  Name = "ArchiveJob"
  SpoolData = no
  JobDefs = "ArchiveDefs"
  Priority = 12
  Client = media-fd
  FileSet = empty
}

FileSet {
  Name = "empty"
  Include { Options { signature = MD5 } }
}
FileSet {
  Name = "L0007"
  Include {
    Options { signature = MD5 }
    File = "/home/big/L0007"
  }
}


And then I can go in to the console, run the job, and modify the job to
use the L0007 fileset instead of the empty one. But I will have to make
a new fileset every time I wish to archive different files -- I would
much prefer it if there were a way to just edit the path. Is this possible?

We are very happy with bacula for our nightly data backups and would
like also to use it for this project, but it seems a bit awkward. Any
thoughts?

thanks so much,
mike
