This will cause a problem presumably, if you do backups on an LZO client (such as I'm considering on my SPARC T2 hosts, weedy CPU cores) then if necessary you can't restore these backups to a GZIP only client. It essentially limits the restore clients to those who also have LZO

yes you need to have LZO include and lib installed in your system AND you need to compile bacula (client, storage and director) in order to get LZO compression support. There is a major compression speed improvement in LZO 2.05 and up on 64bits Intel system. Check that you have at least LZO

Thanks for confirming this. I've recompiled both the server and client on the Bacula server and the configure options confirms the LZO support option is enabled. Nice, you should now have a director (bacula-dir)with lzo compression options and storage (bacula-sd) with lzo stream support.
