Hi everyone! I've started Bacula installation in linux environment and I've reached a point in which complexity of Bacula configuration and volume/type of technical documentation is way beyond my understanding. My configuration can be viewed here, along with additional information: http://pastebin.ca/2097178 and first, most important issues/questions are below:
* do I need multiple volumes for my storage, and if I do, then why, and how to do it properly? * why my volumes that have already been created and used, are not reusable? * how long will I keep backups in current configuration and how do I properly control that? (I'd like to keep the files for given fileset for a month back in time, for any day) * why my full backups arent starting and performing? * why my mysql catalog fails constantly? * is my per host configuration properly done? (each host should be able to have its own fileset or at least be able to extend basic/generic fileset - different files stored for webservers, diffferent for database servers, but all of them have common /etc for example) Its for a start. I will be extremely grateful for some clues what and where am I doing wrong, and why, because in richness of technical documentation I miss explanations and best practices for real life scenarios a lot.
