Hi list,

I have some questions regarding disk based backups that I hope some of you
could answer for me. I am currently managing 100+ UNIX systems that are backed 
up using a variety of scripts which I really would like to replace with 
something 
solid, flexible, scalable and easy to manage.

Bacula seems to be heavily centralized around tape and my head hurts a bit from 
trying to figure out how to do efficient disk based backup for 100+ clients 
without 
shooting myself in the foot :)

All our UNIX boxes follow a 3 week rotation with 1 full backup every week and 
incrementals in between but I would like to be able to change this on a per 
client basis.

My plan is to have a redundant pair of directors and 3 storage daemons running 
off 3 seperat Solaris ZFS backends. 

What combo of pools / volumes do people recommend ? A pool per client ? A pool 
per 
backup type, eg. full, diff, incr ? Seperate volumes per client perhaps ?
