Summary | 0000300: Shadowing over all Client-Filesets | ||||
Description | The current shadowing-Option from a Fileset is a good Feature, but only over one Fileset. A very interesting Feature is this for check shadowing over ALL Filesets from a Client. | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
Problem is however that fileset shadowing can only be performed on the client e.g. you need to look at the rdev field of the stat struct of the directory. And as each Job can only have one fileset its not something that is easy to implement. The current shadowing options make it possible to protect you from simple error where data would normally be backup multiple times. I think its also more a problem that a good sysadmin can solve himself and the whole concept of shadowing over multiple filesets is something that I will for now close as won't fix. Also what means "all" filesets keep in mind that one client could be part of multiple directors. With the current dir->fd protocol this is not possible and I don't have the urge to expand it. But if you want to work on it feel free to fork the github repo and start coding. |
