Depends on first implementing + project Item 2 (Migration) which is now done. + + What: A merged backup is a backup made without connecting to the Client. + It would be a Merge of existing backups into a single backup. + In effect, it is like a restore but to the backup medium. + + For instance, say that last Sunday we made a full backup. Then + all week long, we created incremental backups, in order to do + them fast. Now comes Sunday again, and we need another full. + The merged backup makes it possible to do instead an incremental + backup (during the night for instance), and then create a merged + backup during the day, by using the full and incrementals from + the week. The merged backup will be exactly like a full made + Sunday night on the tape, but the production interruption on the + Client will be minimal, as the Client will only have to send + incrementals. + + In fact, if it's done correctly, you could merge all the + Incrementals into single Incremental, or all the Incrementals + and the last Differential into a new Differential, or the Full, + last differential and all the Incrementals into a new Full + backup. And there is no need to involve the Client. + + Why: The benefit is that : + - the Client just does an incremental ; + - the merged backup on tape is just as a single full backup, + and can be restored very fast. + + This is also a way of reducing the backup data since the old + data can then be pruned (or not) from the catalog, possibly + allowing older volumes to be recycled + +Item 5: Deletion of Disk-Based Bacula Volumes + Date: Nov 25, 2005 + Origin: Ross Boylan (edited + by Kern) + Status: + + What: Provide a way for Bacula to automatically remove Volumes + from the filesystem, or optionally to truncate them. + Obviously, the Volume must be pruned prior removal. + + Why: This would allow users more control over their Volumes and + prevent disk based volumes from consuming too much space. + + Notes: The following two directives might do the trick: + + Volume Data Retention =
