I am experimenting with using Bacula to back up several (m) cifs shares on
one Nas box to (n) sub-directories of a cifs share on another. Neither Nas
is able to run a client directly as they are commercial locked down boxes.
My configuration is a Debian server and two non-identical Nas boxes. They
are on the same subnet.
My first try at this mounts the shares of each Nas on Debian. I define
devices pointing to the backup Nas mounts (bacula-sd.conf).
Device { #1
...
Archive Device = /mnt/backup_nas/dir_1
...
}
Device { #n
...
Archive Device = /mnt/backup_nas/dir_n
...
}
I define n Storage {...} sections (bacula-dir.conf) pointing to these
devices.
I define m clients pointing (bacula-dir.conf) to the various shares on the
data Nas. I am not sure if I need to define m FileDaemon {...}
(bacula-fd.conf) sections to make the link to the clients.
This is probably not a scenario that Bacula was designed for. Is this a
viable approach?
