Hmmm... Is there a way to tell Bacula to simply restore using numeric UIDs and
GIDs for files, and set permissions to their original, ignoring whatever
/etc/passwd and group files are currently on the system?


I hope that is the default behaviour because we use a centralized ldap-directory for authentication. Restoring with right permissions and the numeric UID/GID is just fine.

Quite right...

One more question. After restore, Bacula sent out *very* lenghty email listing all files restored. Not the best idea on full restore of the system (200,000+ files). It was one huuuuuge email. Is it possible to instruct it to be a bit
less verbose (like giving just a short summary)?

Yes, you can exclude the restored files from the message. See the manual, section Messages Resource, especially the message-type field and negation.


Uh, suddenly i`m thinking about one of our backup jobs ...

  FD Files Written:       1,850,386
  SD Files Written:       1,850,386
  FD Bytes Written:       21,065,449,310
  SD Bytes Written:       21,356,605,541
  Rate:                   1064.0 KB/s
  Software Compression:   78.2 %

And that`s not even a complete system ;)

Also with this job the database jumped from 10mb to 260mb ... with only 3 clients beein backed up ... (final number: 32 systems backing up)

I`m getting the impression that the database is going to be HUGE


Oh, usually we're talking about GB here :-)

More seriously - I've got under ten clients and have a database of 1.5GB altogether. I've read of databases much larger.
