[Bacula-users] ZFS and Bacula

[Roy S. K. <ro...@ka...>]

Hi all

I'm planning a Bacula setup with ZFS on the SDs (media being disk, not tape), and I just wonder - should I use a smaller recordsize (aka largest block size) than the default setting of 128kB?

Also, last I tried, with ZFS on a test box, I enabled compression, the lzjb algorithm (very lightwegith and quite decent compression). For 'normal' data, I usually get 30%+ compression with this, but for the data backed up with bacula, it didn't look that good, compression being down to 3-5%. Any idea what might cause this?

Vennlige hilsener / Best regards

I all pedagogikk er det essensielt at pensum presenteres intelligibelt. Det er et elementært imperativ for alle pedagoger å unngå eksessiv anvendelse av idiomer med fremmed opprinnelse. I de fleste tilfeller eksisterer adekvate og relevante synonymer på norsk.
