I'm using bacula 5.0.3 and I have to migrate some jobs to another SD in order to free some space.
I read the doc about copying and migrating jobs but I've got some questions about the Pool directive.
Pool {
Name = GeneralMonthlyPool
Pool Type = Backup
Maximum Volume Bytes = 4G
Volume Use Duration = 6 days
Volume Retention = 26 weeks
Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
Label Format = general-monthly-
Storage = GeneralFile
Action On Purge = Truncate
}
I wish to copy the following job :
Job {
Name = "is-filer1-System"
JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
Client = is-filer1
FileSet = "BasicSet"
Schedule = "GeneralDailyCycle"
}
So I created the following Job :
Job {
Name = "is-filer1-System-Copy"
JobDefs = "DefaultJob"
Client = is-filer1
FileSet = "BasicSet"
Schedule = "GeneralDailyCycle"
type = copy
pool = General-is-filer1-copy
}
And the following pool :
Pool {
Name = General-is-filer1-copy
Pool Type = Backup
Maximum Volume Bytes = 4G
Volume Use Duration = 6 days
Volume Retention = 9 weeks
Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
Label Format = general-is-filer1-
Storage = General-bkp3
Action On Purge = Truncate
}
And my question is, is it risky to update a Pool ? I wish I could add "type next = General-is-filer1-copy" in my old Pool but I don't want to break anything.
I've thought to first to modify the Pool configuration file, add the new directive, reload by bconsole and use the update pool (but how ?) command in bconsole.
Do anyone has thoughts about this ?
