List,

I've spent some of my free time in the last couple of weeks working on  
a reporting system for bacula.  It uses JasperReports so by necessity  
it is written in Java.  The general idea is that the reporter is  
executed from administrative jobs and the generated PDF is sent to  
interested parties via email.

The app that generates the report is very generic and it is fairly  
trivial to drop in additional reports.  There is a nice GUI for  
creating these called iReport, so if you need to generate a custom  
report the process is fairly easy.

Right now the app is limited to catalogs based in postgresql.  This  
isn't a limitation of the report generator as much as it is a  
limitation of the reports I have written thus far.  If someone is  
really interested in running this against a mysql database it would  
just be a matter of changing some sql.


Sample reports are posted at http://breport.randomscrews.net/samples/   
Please be gentle, that is on my home DSL line.

I hope to be posting the code by the end of the week after I get a few  
bugs squashed and a sourceforge project created.


I'm very interested in feedback at this point, especially from those  
who use bacula at larger sites.
