Hi,
We have been using bacula with DISK BASED BACKUP during years (in a
multi-pool, multi-device configuration)
Recently we have "redefined" the devices as autochangers according the
Bacula documentation.
Although the "whole thing" appears to be running ok we have TWO questions:
1) In the previous "device mode", the MediaType of all defined devices
was set as "File"...Now, in the "autochanger mode" I've also used the
same MediaType "File" for ALL devices in ALL autochangers...
* Is this right or MUST I use a different MediaType for every
autochanger (in all its devices)?
* If I must use a different MediaType...the change implies some
problem with existent volumes? Must I do/change something with the
existent volumes?
2) According Bacula documentation is possible to "reserve" a device in
an autochanger setting the property "Autoselect=no" in that device
definition but...
* How can I force bacula to use these reserved devices for a restore
command?
* The Bacula documentation sais that this can be done but NOT HOW,
and apparently the restore command (at least interactively) only permits
specify the Storage, not the device...
Regards.
