Good morning,
I've got my new equipment and I hope to have time next week to start
building out the new backup servers. Currently we do most of our work
with MySQL simply because support is good with the software packages we
use. I looked through GMANE for info on any preferences for which
backend I should use with Bacula and didn't find anything.
Will I gain anything switching to Postgres from MySQL? I'm comfortable
with Postgres though not nearly as familiar with it. But, if switching
will be beneficial then that is what I will install.
So I guess my question really is, "is there a preferred database backend
for Bacula?".
System will be a fresh install from FreeBSD ports (normally I use src
but I'm just too dang busy right now).
- FreeBSD 5
- SATA RAID 1
- 1gb private LAN
- File storage
- Current Bacula storage is exceeding 100mb on two independant Bacula
installs
- Projected storage requirements will be 500mb
(if we begin offering client backups, this will go past 1tb quickly)
- Data backed up is websites, SQL dumps, Cisco configs, server
configs(/etc, /usr/local/etc), file server contents such as PDF, DOC,
XLS, and either dump files or bare metal recovery for key servers.
Thanks,
DAve
