Hi.
I am actually thinking about same thing at this time, and well... deduplicated replication over network under linux seems to be a little bit complicated task... But I have an idea that could solve this issue, however, I don't have it implemented yet... but the idea is to use DRBD and lessfs combination, DRBD for replication and lessfs for deduplication.
 
Sadly lessfs is not production use ready, and DRBD is not well tested either :-( So I would expect a lot of problems with implementation of this solution... I guess I will find out soon myself :)
 
However, developer of lessfs aims to support replication directly in lessfs (I hope he mean replication over network), so maybe I would ask him about his schedule plan, then we could wait till he implement replication.

Subject: [Bacula-users] Copying backup "On the fly"

Hello,

I'm using bacula for servers but the problem is that both servers and where bacula runs are on the same room. I'd like to know how to implement a duplication of the data bacula stores in order to put a copy on another location (via internet). Of course it is not possible to copy simply the backup file because it is too big.

I've seen that it is possible to set "copy" jobs but I don't know how to use it (and I don't know if this is made for what I want)

Thanks for your help
Sebastien VINOT
