Hi all,

I have a Tapeloader with 2 drives and a backupserver with a huge spool 
directory.
Now I thought it would be nice to schedule the different drives and the 
time when it spools to have allways a maximum on network load and keep 
the time which is needed for the backup as short as possible.
For example:
1. Backup job1 starts spooling data from server1 to \serv\spool1
2. drive1 starts writing after job1 stops spooling. At the same time 
Backup job2 starts spooling data from server2 to \serv\spool2
3. When drive1 has finished writing, it starts with despooling.
4. When Job2 has finished spooling, it starts writing to tape2. At the 
same time job1 or another job starts spooling again

At the moment the jobs can start parallel and they need to share the 1GB 
Network. After spooling, there is no more traffic on the 
network.......... This seems to be inefficient 
<ende?lp=ende&p=thMx..&search=inefficient> to me.

Would this be a good solution and is this possible in bacula? What do 
you think?

Regards,
Stefan
