As the author of the above, and of the PostgreSQL module for Bacula, I admit that I am completely and utterly biased. I have used many database over the past 25 years and, by far, I think PostgreSQL is the best. ;) > Sure, > <http://www.bacula.org/manuals/en/catalog/catalog/Catalog_Maintenance.html> > describes things about which one should be aware, but I don't recall > having seen anywhere a recommendation of Postgres over MySQL (or vice > versa) or a statement about significant benefits of one vs the other. It is clearly a religious issue. Regardless of the database of choice, use it and enjoy it. :) -- Dan Langille - http://langille.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
