It's recommended when you have such a large set to physically divide
the fileset into smaller
Just mark the existing volume Used or Full.

path. For example I put mine in /auto/backup/BootStrap
BTW, I do that in the jobs resource:
Write Bootstrap = /auto/backups/BootStrap/%c_%n.bsr

Thanks for your reply. So what you are saying is I really don't have to
recompile Bacula with --with-bsrdir=PATH instead I can change the path to
the *.bsr files in the Bacula configuration directory. Instead of having:
bacula-dir.conf: Write Bootstrap = /var/bacula/working/%c.bsr

I’m wondering if there is a way to install a standalone (minimal) client of
bacula on my systems instead of installing SQL and web based management on
each of my machines?
That would depend on your distribution. On my distribution gentoo I
ask for client only and get only the client.
John
Not sure I follow, I'm on CentOS but isn't there only one Linux client?
I can't find any decent install procedures that don't come with other
software on top of bacula.
You will have to ask Centos how they packaged bacula. Each
distribution has its own install procedure and packages its own
I thought about that, and so I'm wondering if it's really useful to use an
MD5/SHA1 signature?
I think its very useful. I use that on all of my backups or ~40TB.
This allows verification that the tapes are consistent and you can
also compare that what is on the filesystem matches the hashes
I’d like to know if there is a way to allow the use of multi-cores during a
backup and especially for the compression of the data?
I do not believe this is available in bacula at the moment. However
you may be able to turn compression off and use a filesystem that
supports compression like

Hi all,
I have two storage daemon with file device on each.
I know that i can't use a copy job to transfer a Volume between my two
storage daemon, but i need to transfert all my volumes on my second storage.
Do you have any solution to my problem ?

You mean tape. Do not use bacula compression with tape. The HW does
compression automatically and it is much faster.
John
Thanks for the answer.
When you say at the moment, you mean that in the future it'll?
Possibly. This is covered by a few planned projects.
