Hello list!

I'm currently running Arcserve B2D2T (Backup to disk to tape) configuration,
but I'm now in the process of migrating that setup to Bacula. 

I've been reading Bacula manuals about spooling and other options, but I'm not
totally sure if Bacula supports "disk staging" (as Arcserve calls it) in the
same way.

Basicly I'd like to backup each client to hard disk, and then copy the
backups from the hard disk to tape autochanger in the end of the job. 

Arcserve allows restores being made from the disk.. if the backup is still
being held on disk.. if not, then from the tape.

Backups older than N days are being removed automatically from the disk by
Arcserve.

Comments and tips about Bacula configuration would help a lot! 

Thanks!
