- Volume files may be added, deleted, or moved between physical devices
- Unlimited volume files and unlimited virtual drives
- Interaction with Bacula via bconsole supports plug-n-play of removable drives
- Easily scaled by adding additional removable drives

Very useful. Thanks.

Without vchanger, Bacula has no right to claim it supports disk-based backup. Wtih vchanger, one gains the ability to use disks as virtual tape drives. Bacula should incorporate vchanger's functionality. This has been a complaint of mine for years.
