Hi guys, Sorry in advance if my post
I'm new to Bareos and I want to setup Always incremental, but I'm not sure I fully understood how to configure properly this feature... I have 3 clients and 2 NAS, and I want to copy each job from one NAS to the other (copies are OK). Incrementals are OK, I just don't really know how to configure correctly my jobs for the consolidation I'd like to configure AI like this : - 1 full per month at the beginning of the month - Consolidation every 3 days with incrementals - Consolidation with the full at the end of the month I followed the doc, but, again, I'm not sure I've fully understood how consolidation really works... I want to do like this because I have 1,5 TB of space, and I have to keep 1 year of saves. (full around 220GB for 1 client) If I understood, like this at the end of the month, I'll have only one file : the full consolidated for the month. Am I right ? You'll find my config for director and storage in the zip attached. They are not scheduled yet because I'm still testing. My question is : how do I need to configure always incremental parameters to have a consolidation like I want ? I don't fully understand how works parameters like those below Always Incremental Job Retention = ? days Always Incremental Max Full Age = ? days I tested with 3 incrementals (for 3 days), but I must have made a mistake it don't consolidate 13-Aug 06:45 bareos-dir JobId 47: Nessus-AI: considering jobs older than 10-Aug-2020 06:45:30 for consolidation. 13-Aug 06:45 bareos-dir JobId 47: Nessus-AI: less incrementals than required to consolidate without full, not consolidating I have other questions : - I'm not using "Jobdefs" parameter, is it bad ? To be honest, I seems a little useless to me if you configure all parameters in Jobs - I saw the "Accurate" parameter, and I'm not sure but, if an user deletes by mistake a file, and ask me for restore it few days later, with this parameter the file will not be kept ? - There is a way to have consolidation on my second NAS too ? Or because they are copies, they're not considered in the AI scheme and can't be consolidated ? Thank you for your advices and help.
