Hello Chris,

Yes, it is possible. To have it, you need to do the following steps:

1) Install Baculum API on the second Bacula instance.
2) Configure Baculum API with desired API capabilities.
3) On the Baculum Web side add a new API host that will connect to the
new Baculum API.
4) Assign the new API host to a Baculum Web user.
5) After that at the top right side of the web interface you will have
a combobox to switch between the two Bacula environments.

To do the above useful will be reading 'Remote host management'
chapter in the Baculum documentation:

https://baculum.app/doc/remote/basic.html

Good luck.
