Backup Central

Hi,

the problem: I've got some backup job that does a full backup once a week
and differential ones every other day. The full backup streams with the
nominal data rate of the tape device, which is fine. But for incremental
jobs, the rate is normally far beyond that rate.

Now the question, is it possible to have the incremental jobs run with data
spooling on and the full ones with spooling off? As far as I can see from
the manual, I can not accomplish that by means of a Schedule ressource, and
turning spooling on for all backups would slow down the full cycles quite a
bit.

Any idea?

Hi

Here's on of my schedules from bacula-dir.conf which does what you want
to accomplish (the Job resource is shortened by three dots to hilight
the relevant sections):

Job {
Name = "reha36-dbbak-job"
Type = Backup
Level = Full
...
SpoolData = no
...
}

Schedule {
Name = "reha36-dbbak-schedule"
Run = Level=Full Pool=monthly-pool 1st sun at 03:00
Run = Level=Full Pool=weekly-pool 2nd-5th sun at 03:00
Run = Level=Full Pool=daily-pool mon at 03:00
Run = Level=Incremental Pool=daily-pool SpoolData=yes tue-sat at 03:00
}

Greetings,

Mario

[...]
Schedule {
Name = "reha36-dbbak-schedule"
Run = Level=Full Pool=monthly-pool 1st sun at 03:00
Run = Level=Full Pool=weekly-pool 2nd-5th sun at 03:00

Thx alot, this should do the trick . Either I was not able to read the
manual, or the spool data option for a schedule is missing there

Kindest regards,
Dietz
