In our Bacula setup, we’re currently backing up several servers to a pool of three large volumes on a RAID array. These volumes are set to auto-recycle and are limited to 250gb in size. Typically, each volume holds at least one full backup and several days worth of differentials before it hits the 250gb cap.

 

We have a Dell RD1000 backup unit (basically a usb sata drive) that has a 300gb cartridge. What I’d like to do is to copy the volume file with the last good full backups to that device so we can take them off site.

 

I’m not opposed to getting my hands dirty in the process, you know, teach a man to fish and all…but I’m pretty much at a loss as to where I should look in the documentation to start figuring out how to do what I want to do.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance,

Martin
