I have remote servers set up in a "single

servers only have slow connections to our central sites.
Is it possible
to configure a central director, and still have the
clients do their backups to
storage that's local to them? My goal is to manage many
remote clients
from a central point.
It's definitely possible, I've configured something like it for a
client where both servers have their own tapedrive but only one runs
a director.
All you need to do is to have one server with bacula-dir (the
central management server), and all other servers with bacula-sd and
bacula-fd.
Then just define all the different Storage devices in your
bacula-dir and make sure each client uses the right one.
If setup correctly you'll only have metadata flowing towards the
director, and all data itself will stay local between the sd and fd
on the other servers.
Kind regards,
Jeremy
