I'm attempting something very simple with Bacula that has not worked
correctly yet. I've decided I need to start from scratch.
Here are my goals:
I want to back up to a rotation of 4 1tb hard drives over the course
of 4 weeks.
I want a full backup every Sunday, and incrementals every day after
until I change disks on Monday morning.
I want each disk to be re-used when necessary (that is, I don't need
to keep any backup longer than a month).
What's the best configuration to make this happen with Bacula? A high-
level example should be enough to get me started, since I'm familiar
with the basics of Bacula configuration.
cheers,
Blake
