Re: [BackupPC-users] multiple pools

is it possible to have multiple pools

My backupspc has raid1 pair of 1Tb drives - this is now 750gb used

I guess its time to think about adding a 2nd 1Tb pair

did you use LVM? You could rotate the data. Setup the new raid and put that device in LVM. Create a LV and then move all the old data over. Then you can remove the partition from the original drive and put that in the LVM and then extend the new LV to include both raid arrays.

If you can manage to dump the 750 off to another drive you could do that and just create a new RAID10 and then restore onto that also.

to directly answer your question, no you cannot have two pools.
