hi.. all

Every day, I have more than 375GB to backup.

for the movement i do the backups by breaking then into different volumes. ( one volume might have maximum of 150GB of data)

below is "list volumes" out put that you can see..

Now what i am going to do is write all the backups for a day into one single volume so there is going to be 7 volumes and one single volume going to have up to 400GB of data.

Is Bacula volumes capable to handle that much of data. or is it good to have small volumes like 150GB

Is it ok to have up to 400GB in a bacula volume... on a file storage device..

will it be a problem when restoring the backups..???
