similar to: CentOS and bacula

Hi Fabio, thanks for your reply. (I'm new with bacula). To make things more clear: 1) Reinstall CentOS and software; 2) Configure database and import catalog 3) Copy last valid configuration for dir, sd,fd and console. 4) Re-attach my disk backup device with last volumes That's all? Another question is about Catalog backup. When I need to restore a backup, bacula reads catalog and

Hi Alessandro, Just backup your database and you'll be fine. If there's a need you cal always 'bscan' your old volumes.

Hi there, In my last request I have asked info about backuppc and other backup solutions. After some test I have choosen bacula. Many people said it's too complex and try to make it works is a challenge. I've tested backuppc and I don't like it for a stupid reason... I must install on centos external software, configure a web server with cgi with suid enabled (apache does not have

Hey there, I'm testing LVM snapshot to make backups and I've some questions about snapshot lvm. In my test case I have httpd, postgresql db and a dataset on a VM. Running a backup I follow this steps: 1) Stop httpd 2) Create lvm snapshot on the dataset 3) Backup database 4) restart httpd (to avoid more downtime) 5) mount the snapshot and execute backup 6) umount and remove the snapshot

Hi list, another question about bacula, but this time about restoring backups. I've a server that I must backup every day. My plan is: from mon to sat incrimental backup and on sunday full backup. When I will perform a restore I must restore from last valid full backup and then all valid incremental backup from last backup to specific date. This server has aweb managed application where

Hi everyone, I have updated my backup server to CentOS 8.2. It runs bacula performing backup on disks. I would like to replicate backups on another offsite machine. I read about the ability to configure a new storage daemon in the offsite location and create a Migration/Copy Jobs. If I'm not wrong, it replicates only volumes but not replicate the catalog. I will try this. Another way to

Hi list, I created my rpm for Bacula 9.4.1 reading centos srpm spec files. I made a single package and not split in several packages because this is my first rpm so I created my spec file taking a cue from bacula-5.3 spec file. All works as intended, an rpm was created and installed without any not fixable issue. After installing my bacula rpm I run a test to see if all works as expected.

Hey there, what type of backup solution do you use on C7? Thanks in advance

Hi list, i've need to backup a partition of ~200GB with a local connection of 8/2 mbps. Tool like bacula, amanda can't help me due to low bandwidth in local server. I'm thinking rsync will be a good choice. What do you think about? Thanks in advance.

Hi list, I'm trying to understand SELinux on C7. I encountered problem running bacula when system is enforced. The problem is when bacula try to run BeforeJobScript. In this script there is an occourrence to systemctl stop httpd and hostname command and I got error on permission on this 2 commands. Reading RHEL 7 SELinux Guide seems that I need a domain transaction but I don't know how

I list, I'm new with backup ops and I'm searching a good system to accomplish this work. I know that on centos there are bacula and amanda but they are too tape oriented. Another is that they are very powerfull but more complex. I need a solution for small office for disk storage and I found Backup PC. Many people say that it is great for small stuff and for great number of data. What do

Hi all, I'm planning to use Bacula in production environment. I've seen the Bacula packages are not provided neither by any official repo nor any third popular repo (as rpmforge). ?Anyone use bacula in CentOS 5? -- Thanks, Jordi Espasa Clofent

Hi John, thank you for your answer, I already take in consideration DRBD but I need some test before start. Reading you seems that this solution is not anymore available. What do you use for this?

On c7 I can't find mod_perl. Configuring bacula client requires only few lines...with bacula you need only bacula pkgs and one database. With backuppc there are different services to install and configure...some external to centos base. In c7, without mod_perl I must run cgi with suid... Ok bacula is more complex (complexity I mean for its configuration) but It is better organized and less
