Hello List,
Forgive the long post, but I have a situation here that requires some
help...
My current setup...
-- NetApp filer containing ~35TB of data to be backed up to tape
-- Quantumi40 w/ 2 LTO-5 drives
-- Quantum SL3 w/ 1 LTO-5 drive
-- HP DL-380G5 with 16GB RAM and 3 x spool hdd
-- CentOS 6.5 with kernel 2.6.32-431.23.3.el6.x86_64
-- Bacula 7.0.5
-- All data going to tape comes via NFS from filer with each tape drive
having a dedicated spool spindle
-- Full jobs run once per week, on Wednesdays
-- Incremental jobs run daily
-- Tapes leave daily to IronMountain, offsite for 1 week
My current issues...
-- Tape auto-recycling is not happening consistently/reliably
-- Tapes now need to be offsite for longer periods of time.
Given the amount of hand holding I have had to do with bacula over the
last couple of years, I am convinced that my configs are not very
helpful or accurate...
So my question is this...
What would be the best setup for pools/retention/schedules to accomplish:
-- Manage volumes/pools between both autochanger devices
-- Tapes offsite daily, to return 31 days later for recycling
-- Tapes written daily/weekly via incremental and/or diff jobs
-- Tapes written weekly/monthly via Full jobs
-- Automating the 'update slots' and 'volume status' changes when tapes
leave daily
-- Restore validation tests performed quarterly
Let me know if you need further information, and thanks in advance for
reading and any help!
