This may not be exactly what you want, but I spool my data to a disk and then
stream to the tape drive. This keeps up a constant stream of data to the tape.
In /etc/bareos/bareos-sd.d/device/tape.conf:
Device {
...
Maximum Spool Size = 1500Gb
Spool Directory = /mnt/bacula-spool
}
In /etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d/jobdefs/LTO-Backup.conf:
JobDefs {
...
Spool Data = yes
}
This spools up to 1.5TB of data to /mnt/bacula-spool on the bareos server. When
that limit is reached or the job finishes, then the data is despooled to the
tape drive.

Subject: [External] [bareos-users] some newbie questions
Hello there,
I'm Frank, changing from Bacula to Bareos because didn't get it running.
Now Bareos is working well after installation, the test backup and restore of
/usr/sbin was successful with "file" as storage on a dedicated hard disk.
Now my goal is the following scenario:
1. using the Quantum Ultrium LTO-7 tape drive:
- I can read an write to tape, using the devices /dev/st0 or /dev/nst0 or /tape
Have add in /etc/bareos/bareos-sd/device a file with this content:
Device {
Name = TapeStorage
Media Type = LTO-7
Archive Device = /dev/st0
LabelMedia = no; # lets Bareos label unlabeled media
Random Access = no;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = yes;
AlwaysOpen = yes;
Description = "LTO 7 Tape."
}
With this file, bareos SD daemon won't start.
What's wrong?
2. My backup plan is, to collect the data from several servers by NFS /
GulsterFS connection, store it on a dedicated local disk on the Bareos server
and than stream it to the tape inside the bareos server too. Can anyone give me
please some hints, which configuration steps I have to do for this scenario?
Thans for any help, Frank
