Hi everyone,
I have been running nightly backups using a single pool of 19 volumes. The schedule is for Schedule { Name = "WeeklyCycle" Run = Full 1st sat at 23:05 Run = Differential 2nd-5th sat at 23:05 Run = Incremental mon-fri at 23:05 }
What i want to do is take tapes offsite once a month and what I did was to create a new pool Pool { Name = Offsite_Backup Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 30 days # one year Accept Any Volume = yes # write on any volume in the pool Cleaning Prefix = LTC }
then added 2 tapes to it and ran the jobs associated with each client Job { Name = "ie-serv-2_backup" Type = Backup Level = Incremental Client = ie-serv-2-fd FileSet = "ie-serv-2 Full Set" Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" Storage = PV128T Messages = Standard Pool = Servers_Nightly Priority = 10 Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/ie-serv-2.bsr" }
modifying the Type to Full
This seemed fine and the usual scheduled backup ran as expected
So I removed the tapes for offsite, put the other 2 back in and restarted bacula.
Tested a backup and it keeps asking for the two offsite tapes which is alright now as I have them on my desk but how should I be doing this?
was thinking define another job for offsite with new bootstrap but then what about the catalog I only have one, can I create another?
All comments welcome.
regard, John
