[Bacula-users] Prevent jobs to run or limit bandwidth in certain hours/days?
Hi everyone, I'm using Bacula 7.0 to backup a pack of servers. My schedules are all starts in evening time. My problem is: some days jobs take longer so some of them arent finished by morning and workhours bandwidth is a problem for me. I searched max bandwidth but it doesnt fit because i don't want to limit bandwidth in evenings, just in workhours, but i cant seperate it in job definition. Then I came across Max Start Delay and Max Run Sched Time and they don't fit either because i want to let the jobs run for example in weekends. Is there a way to define a jobs behaviour according to its time? Or what would you suggest doing in such situation? *Thanks,* *Begum Tuncer* -- Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!

Are you starting all your jobs at the same time? Wondering if your having issues with all of your jobs competing for bandwidth and slowing down. Thinking a staggered start might help you.

John, yes, most of the jobs start at the same time. But they join the queue because of max concurrent jobs setting. So they are not running at the same time. My bandwidth issue is not related to this, i think i explained it wrong. My bacula storage is in my office so in workhours it shouldn't consume my bandwidth.

A good idea is to have a dedicated network only for servers. For example, i've two networks in my work: one for users and other only for servers, then i can run a full backup between servers using about 500Mbits of bandwidth, and users don't notice anything. All full backups are in the same day?, because another option is distribute full backups along week days (or month days), and the rest of backups Differentials and Incrementals.
