Hi list,
We are about to deploy a backup system for a large number of clients
(~400), The backupPC server will be a good machine (4 CPUs, loads of
RAM) but I'm still concerned about the time the full backup are taking
and the number of imultaneous backups.
To adress this, I'm considering a setup of N servers, connected to the
same file system (through GFS for instance) wich would be the backuppc
data directory.
------------ |--------------------|
| Server1 | ----------------|
------------ |
------------ | One File System
| Server2 |-----------------| (GFS, OCFS, ...)
------------ |
------------ |
| ServerN |-----------------|
------------ |--------------------|
2 possibilities :
a. Each backuppc server would be independant, having it's set of clients
to backup. They are just storing everything in the same pool.
b. All servers share the same set of clients, but I can't see how this
would be possible
Did anyone setup something like that ? Is it theoretically possible ?
Actualy, I see some problems with this settings, file systems
Maybe there is a more clever way to build a backuppc cluster. Any
suggestion ?
Thanks !
Jonathan
