Re: [Bacula-users] Recommendation for NAS Appliance that Supports Bacula Community
Hi. I use Synology, 10TB mount with iscsi (open-iscsi), and for emulated Tape-Library, i used mhvtl. https://www.mhvtl.com/ I have also configured NAS servers using iscsi. You only need: tgt and know lvm well. (aptitude install tgt and lvm) Regards.

Any suggestions? I have been looking at FREENAS, Synology, Qnap , and ReadyNAS so far. Not exactly what you are asking, but... I've never run the Director on a NAS; I've been running the Storage Daemon on Zyxels and QNAPs. The latter are overall better (which is normal, given they cost more). I've never had many troubles, anyway. Just my 2c. bye av. ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
[Bacula-users] Recommendation for NAS Appliance that Supports Bacula Community
I am looking for a NAS appliance that supports Bacula Community. Use case is to back up a single server with 16 - 20 TB of storage. The server has not been purchased yet. It will start out empty but could grow to completely full over years. Idea is to keep backups for about six months. I want to run Bacula Director on the NAS rather than mounting the NAS storage on the server and running Director on the server so that if something goes wrong and overwrites everything on the server then it does not overwrite the NAS as well. Any suggestions? I have been looking at FREENAS, Synology, Qnap , and ReadyNAS so far. I already have a system that I set up to back up a server with 8 TB of space. I made it from an old Xeon workstation. I put 4 x 16 tb drives in it set up as a ZFS mirrored pool with Centos 7 to give ~ 30 TB of space and running Bacula 9.44. I do one full backup/month. It gives about 4 months worth of backups. I do not want to do a larger version of this because this backup system will be installed across the country so it needs to be a little more turnkey so the people there can set it up. After that then I can manage it remotely. ___ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
