Bonjour Nicolas,

I tried it and gave up -- there some posts about the subject -- restoring a backup can be quite difficult.

I looked at deduplicating file systems (there are several choices) as places to store bacula backups, but alas, bacula places data on the disk in an un-aligned stream, therefore, de-duping is worthless.

I ended up turning on compression for the clients and buying large capacity external disks.

I have suggested to alter the stream to be aligned, so maybe at some point we'll see it in a future release -- it's a shame as I have many identical clients to backup.

Cheers

M

Hi,

I'm using last version of Bacula, and it's working well.

 

I'm searching how make working the deduplication, with base jobs.

I create a Base Level Job, and a Full Level Job with base, but it's not working.


Is someone have examples ?

 

Thanks
