I assume enabling both would add overhead in terms of CPU usage etc

Hello Stefan,

Not sure I would call FD encryption plus SD encryption "better", only because you have the added task of managing the keys/certs on the client(s) in addition to the SD re-encrypting the already FD-encrypted data and you needing to make sure the encryption key files for each SD-encrypted cloud volume are safely maintained. :)

So, more CPU use on client(s). and on SD, and more admin work, but yes, data 
would be encrypted twice in such a setup.


Is there a working example somewhere?

Just setting "Volume Encryption = yes" leads to issues labelling the
volumes here, I assume that a keypair is needed somewhere.

thanks

In addition to setting "Volume Encryption = yes" in each of your your SD's c
loud devices, you also need the following in your SD's top-level configuration:
----8<----
EncryptionCommand = "/path/to/key-manager.py getkey"
----8<----

The actual path will depend on the Bacula community maintainer for your distro. 
:)


Hope this helps,
Bill
