I've done a bit of work in that area, using both Ruby on Rails and Ruby by its self. I've used the Rails framework to develop Bacuview, a Bacula status monitor which provides a web-based view into the status of a Bacula backup system, with pages provided to display the status of the jobs, the clients, the media, and the pools in the system. For details, see: http://bacuview.rubyforge.org/ Using ruby on its own, I've developed Bacuwatch, a program used to keep a watch on a group of Bacula jobs. Typically, it is run from a cron job, and is configured to send an email message with a single line status report on each backup job to the Bacula administrator and optionally to send a more detailed report on each job to the user of the machine which that job backs up. -- John Kodis. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
