Can I “seed” the backup process by copying data to a drive and moving that to the bacula server? This would be done before I start the backup process on bacula.
You don't really need to do anything, since Bacula is responsible to copy data from the clients to the storage daemon (socket connection). If you want to make a local backup on the remote sites, you can have a Bacula storage daemon on them to make the backups and configure a copy job to your main site.

Is there a recommended way to backup remote servers over a VPN connection?
I don't think there is anything special, but your network appliances can be a bottleneck, eventually. Thanks! -------------------- Damien Hull IT Manager Tikigaq Corporation 301 W. Northern Lights Blvd., Suite 660 Anchorage, AK 99503

Subject: Re: [Bacula-users] Backing up 3 remote locations I’m brand new to bacula. Here’s what I’m trying to do.
1.
I have windows servers in 3 remote locations that I need to backup
2.
Is there a recommended way to do this? I was hoping for a central backup server for everything.
Ok. Bacula Director will have to access the clients through some port (default 9102). Clients will send backup data back to your central server that will probably host the storage daemon (default 9103). 3.
Does bacula do deduplication? I’m hoping deduplication will help me save on storage and bandwidth usage.
Bacula community current deduplication is only useful if you have the very exact same file in the different servers, since it will only copy the same file once. You
can always have more incremental backups and fewer full to save your bandwidth. Bacula Enterprise has a new feature call Global Deduplication that works on the storage and I think it should be more practical. ============================================================
