 Hi,
 
 I am using bacula to make daily disk-to-disk backups. Now, I need to
 make weekl and yearly tapes. What is the preferred way? The
 information should reside on two places, both disk and tape. Those
 "snapshot" tapes will be transferred to a physically different
 location.
 
 The size of current full backup is around half a terabyte
 uncompressed, and everything on disk backups are differential.
 
 The disk backup system is based on serial ata disks (raid5, lacie's
 5-big nas), which, i know is a bit unreliable comparing to "real"
 storage systems.
 
 About reliability, is smbmount reliable enough for these tasks? Would
 I benefit if I chose Apple's protocol (afs, apple file server
 protocol)? The machine handling connection between nas and storage
 daemon is an ubuntu 8.04 LTS (jeos with -virtual kernel).
