We are low on space in the backup partition...

Recent backup just blocked, as we lack space, so the config rework must happen soon...

Bacula 5.0.2 installed, using a few new features.
We should also take care of the CriticalDataBackup run scripts, which are deactivated, it could be useful.

A few parameters have been changed to improve the situation, but still we need to work more on the subject.

Configuration was split properly.
The Storage directive was moved from Jobdefs to Pools, to later allow Copy/Migration to remote Pools.

We need to check directory listing, in order to not forget anything and revolve the following minor issues:

Fixed the previous list, but still need to check for missing parts.

- % Done changed from 50 to 60
Today, fixed:
- missing db-backup group/user on Elwing
- remaining /var/lib/postgresql on Toushirou (script then detected a PG server, which was wrong)

As having another backup host is not happening anytime soon, and the need for backup space keeps growing over time, i suggest the following course of action:
- find a way to split the PV on Daneel, one for the system and another for backup data
- keeps using soft RAID1 for the first PV, but use both backup partitions as PV in the same VG, to double the size of backup data space
These are big changes, and i don't know how to do that without reinstalling from scratch.
