Hello Josip,This new StorageGroup feature allows you to specify more than one Storage in a Job or Pool. For example: ----8<---- Job { Name = Test Storage = Storage_1, Storage_2, Storage_3, ... StorageGroupPolicy = (ListedOrder|LeastUsed) ... } ----8<---- Then, when Bacula starts a job, if it cannot reach the first one for some reason, or the first one rejects the job (ie: some mis-configuration issue, or devices are disabled on it), then the next one is tried, and so on until it finds one that works. The `StorageGroupPolicy` setting allows you to tell Bacula what criteria to use when selecting the storage. The default is `ListedOrder` and will be used if not specified. The `LeastUsed` policy checks all of the specified Storages and chooses the one with the least number of jobs currently running on it. I understand there are more `StorageGroupPolicy` options being planned. Hope this helps, Bill
This is very nice. Bill, thank you for explaining it. Regards! -- Josip Deanovic _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
