Hi Radoslaw,
I am trying to backup data to two HDDs using two USB dockings. I tried the
configurations as below but still failed.
#bacula-sd.conf
Autochanger {
Name = usb-changer-1
Device = usb-changer-1-drive-0
Device = usb-changer-1-drive-1
Changer Command = "" #if not added, got error
Changer Device = /dev/null #if not added, got error
}
Device {
Name = usb-changer-1-drive-0
Drive Index = 0
Autochanger = yes;
Device Type = File
Media Type = Disk
Archive Device = /mnt/usbdocking1
LabelMedia = yes;
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes;
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 5
}
Device {
Name = usb-changer-1-drive-1
Drive Index = 1
Autochanger = yes;
Device Type = File
Media Type = Disk
#Archive Device = /mnt/usbdocking1
Archive Device = /mnt/usbdocking2
LabelMedia = yes;
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes;
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 5
}
#bacula-dir.conf
JobDefs {
Name = "TestJob"
Type = Backup
Level = Full
Client = bacula-fd
FileSet = "Test Backup"
Storage = usbchanger1
Messages = Standard
Pool = TestPool
Priority = 11
}
Storage {
Name = usbchanger1
Address = localhost
SDPort = 9103
Password = "WfYdG2,/8P"
Device = usb-changer-1
Media Type = File
Autochanger = yes;
}
Pool {
Name = TestPool
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = no
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 7 days
Label Format = Test-
}

When changed Media Type from "Disk" to "File', I could run the job but a new
volume was created on usbdocking1 but not usbdocking2 when HDD is full on
usbdocking1? If using same archive device (e.g. usbdocking1), it won't backup
on to another even the HDD is full.
Any hints? Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Keith

In My Very Humble Opinion you are going in the wrong way!!! Stop before someone
gets hurt. :)
First of all. Do you have a tape library or autochanger connected into your
Bacula server? Could you show an output of the command (run as root):
# lsscsi -g
If you do not have any tape library then please forget about mtx-changer
script. It is for tape library/autochanger not disks.
In this case (hard disk storage) you should use a very simple configuration,
i.e. for two virtual devices:
#
# An autochanger device
#
Autochanger {
Name = disk-storage
Device = File-Storage-0
Device = File-Storage-1
}
Device {
Name = File-Storage-0
Media Type = disk
Device Type = File
Archive Device = /backup/volumes
Automatic Mount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = no;
RandomAccess = yes;
Drive Index = 0
AutoChanger = yes
Label Media = yes
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
}
Device {
Name = File-Storage-1
Media Type = disk
Device Type = File
Archive Device = /backup/volumes
Automatic Mount = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = no;
RandomAccess = yes;
Drive Index = 1
AutoChanger = yes
Label Media = yes
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
}
Thats all. You need to tune Archive Device parameter to suits your needs. And
works like a charm.
