Greetings
Apologies if similar questions have been asked before. I have a Scalar100
autochanger with two tape drives and am running bacula-1.37.30. I have split
the 60 tapes in to two pools, one for filesystem backups, the other for
database backups.
My problem is that I am struggling to configure Bacula in such a way that
filesystem jobs and database jobs run in parallel, one on each drive. Currently
the Filesystem backups are held up until the database backups are finished, and
only one drive is in use at a time. Any help with this would be greatly
appreciated, I seem to be stuck.
Below are my Device definitions from bacula-sd.conf I do not have an
Autochanger {} currently configured - should I?
--
bacula-sd.conf
Device {
Name = Scalar100 #
Media Type = Ultrium-LTO-2
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
DriveIndex = 0;
Changer Command = "/usr/local/bacula-1.37.30/etc/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Device = /dev/sg1
AutoChanger = yes
Alert Command = "sh -c '/usr/local/mtx/sbin/tapeinfo -f %c |grep
TapeAlert|cat'"
}
#
# Scalar100 second drive
#
Device {
Name = Scalar100 #
Media Type = Ultrium-LTO-2
Archive Device = /dev/nst1
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
DriveIndex = 1;
Changer Command = "/usr/local/bacula-1.37.30/etc/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
Changer Device = /dev/sg1
AutoChanger = yes
Alert Command = "sh -c '/usr/local/mtx/sbin/tapeinfo -f %c |grep
TapeAlert|cat'"
}

Below is my Storage {} specification in bacula-dir.conf
--
bacula-dir.conf:
Storage {
Name = Scalar100
# Do not use "localhost" here
Address = breed.xxxx.com # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here
SDPort = 9103
Password = "xxxx" # password for Storage daemon
Device = Scalar100 # must be same as Device in Storage daemon
Media Type = Ultrium-LTO-2 # must be same as MediaType in
Storage daemon
# Autochanger = yes # enable for autochanger device
}

Many thanks,
Regards
Andrew
