Backup Central

Dear all
I am new to bacula and implemented it on my RHEl server 5.2. Everything is working great and now i want to use my another linux system disk partition as backup storage. Should i use NFS or similar network protocol or any other way?

Thanks

I guess what you like to do can be better done with a second bacula-sd
installed on the second server.Otherwise (if I have understand right
what you plan to do) if you backup a client over the network the hole
traffic would go from the client to the first (bacula) server (that runs
bacula-dir and bacula-sd that is using local storage but pointed to some
mounted NFS share) and then again over network through NFS to the final
storage on another system. It should be more efficient if the the client
may talk directly to the system that hold the backup.

Greetings,

I presume you mean a disk in another system. Mounting over nfs means
all data must be sent to your storage daemon and then sent on to your
nfs server. It would probably make more sense to install a bacula
storage daemon on the second machine which would allow backups to go
direct.
