I'm using mono device for each storage location always since too long. I've no autochanger and if I have to use one (when doing training) I'm using mvhtl (available at bareos) What I'm doing when I want to merge several backups jobs coming from several backup clients is using spooling. And this for several years now, has always works, and when the infrastructure permit it, the storage do all the compression with autoxflate plugin. Why, do I do this, because multiple device was initially implemented and made for autoloaders with all the mechanics and so on.... ;-) -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch Bareos Partner, openSUSE Member, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot openSUSE Tumbleweed Linux 4.9.0-2-default x86_64 GNU/Linux, nvidia: 375.26 Qt: 5.7.1, KDE Frameworks: 5.29.0, Plasma: 5.8.4, kmail2 5.4.0 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bareos-users" group.
