Hello,
If you are planning to use more than one Storage daemon to access
the tape drive, you should consider contacting Bacula Systems to
get the Enterprise version of Bacula which supports SAN shared
tape storage with a plugin. The other alternative is to use the
community version and partition your autochanger so that no drive
sharing is involved. Even then, you probably need expert help to
ensure that Bacula doesn't get confused about what Volumes can be
uses by which Storage daemon (i.e. make sure every SD has a unique
Media Type).
Best regards,
Kern

Hi
I am setting up Bacula for backing up the data to the
TAPES. I want to design the following setup with Bacula:
1. The tapes/autochanger are connected via SAN to the
client machines. These client machines are hosting the files
those need to be backed up.
2. The File daemon and Storage Daemon will be installed and
configured on Client machines.
3. The Director will be installed on separate machine which
will host only the Database. It will not connect directly to
any autochanger device neither to any partition whose backup
will be required on tape. In other words, it will only
controlling/managing the backup jobs
Please advice if this design is correct or not.
Thanks in advance for answer.
