Hi,

I have the same issue right now as well. I do my backups on an attached
raid, which works very well. But I need a copy in order to have the
backups outside of the room where the servers reside. 
My first approach was to simply copy the volume files, the catalog and
the bacula config files to an external usb drive. I do not have any
tape drive there (yet). 

I could tinker a new bacula server with those files in case of a
disaster or manipulate the volume files directly with the b-tools.

I played around with "Next Pool = usb1" and different pools on my usb
drives but it didn't work properly and in the end it is much to complex
to handle.

Cheers,

Oliver
