Unfortunately it has been many years since I last did any work with Bacula, and so I can't help you with your questions, but thanks for your comment and I hope you still found the article useful.

I've been looking all over for a good example of Pools and a Schedule that makes sense. Thank you for explaining the reason for your schedule. Questions: 1) What do you recommend for multiple clients? Should each client have its own set of 3 pools? 2) I didn't know you could do that with the LabelFormat. Won't the Director append the jobid to the end of these? What does the "{Day:p/2/0/r}" mean? 3) I think you have a typo in your second set of bullet points. I think "Daily Incremental backup against the incremental backup" should read "Daily Incremental backup against the differential backup". This is a great article.
