You've hit the nail on the head. You've got the proper tape library hardware. Our ISP uses Bacula absolutely fine for our hosted servers.
ah, right.
Our problem is mostly tape management. It will work fine for ages then we do something stupid like miss a tape and put it in in the morning, or we get a bank holiday and it starts getting picky about which tape it wants. For example we gave it monday's tape which was 'full' when it only has a 4 day retention period and it didn't like it and wanted the thursday tape. Why thursday I don't know, mon tue and wed should all have been available.
yes, i completely agree; the stacker changes everything. sorry to have jumped in, and i hope you find something that works for you.
