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

Hi list, I've a bacula system based on disk volume that I need to refresh (new install). There is a way to mantain the "current status" (volumes, catalog and other if needed) when migrating the system to a new installation? Thanks in advance

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 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 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.

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 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

Good morning list, I've a question about backup performed with bacula. I manage a DELL server (dedicated on provider) with C7. I use bacula as backup system with volumes on disk. System performs mon-sat incremental backups and Sun full backup at 03.00 AM. I've another pool (named update) where I performs backup before each software update. Storage is on and external disk 2.5' of

Hi list, I'm searching a valid backup system to perform backups of 3 server, one local and 2 remote, and 2 linux workstation. (this number could be higher in future). Currently I'm testing bacula, scripted rsync with hardlink and borgbackup on C8.1. Bacula works without any problem, well tested, solid but complex to configure. Tested on a single server (with volumes on disk) and? a

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

Hi list, I'm building a backup server for 3 hosts (1 workstation, 2 server). I will use bacula to perform backups. The backup is performed on disks (2 x 3TB on mdraid mirror) and for each hosts I've created a logical volume with related size. This 3 hosts have different data size with different disk change rate. Each host must have a limited sized resource and a reserved space. If a

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

Hi list, I'm studying SELinux on my workstation and for this I've enforced. In a first time selinux was permissive and when switched to enforcing I had relabel some things. Due to my "nescience" about selinux and what I must configure, I'm waiting avc denied for specified services. Until today, I've configured successfully httpd, smbd. Today I've noticed that my
