Hi All,
I have a few (I am sure rather trivial by your standards) questions
On bacula-dir.conf I have to setup 7 clients. The standard template I am using
for each is as follows:
# Client to backup
Client {
Name = ClientA-fd #fully qualified domain name of the client
Address = 10.1.1.1 #IP address of the client
FDPort = 9102 #port to listen on - leave default 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog #leave default
Password = "blank" # password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 30d # 30 days
Job Retention = 180d # six months
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
# Define Job for ClientA
Job {
Name = "ClientA" # client name - can be anything
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental # bacula will do full backup if it cannot
find a record
Client = ClientA-fd # fqdn of client with -fd suffix
FileSet = "ClientA Set" # unique FileSet name - use "clientName
set" convention
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Storage = Tape
Messages = Standard
Pool = Week1
Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/ClientAJob.bsr"
}
# List of clientA files to be backed up
FileSet {
Name = "ClientA Set"
Include {
Options {
Signature = MD5
}
# list of files to be included in backup - 'File =' for each path. on linux
you can use relative paths
File = "c:\backups" # notice the "" convention - this is for
windows dirs
}
# list of files to be EXCLUDED
Exclude {
File = /data/build
}
}
1- Client {}
- Does the Port have to be unique per client? I am assuming yes (default is
9012)
- File/Job retention - will this affect my ability to restore data?
2- Job {}
I have a WeeklyCycle schedule setup with 6 pools (week 1-5 and a Scratch pool)
- Under Job, for each client the Pool = week1. Does this mean backups will only
go to tapes under week1, should this be scratch or something else?
I also need your opinion on RunAfterJob - is it advisable to unmount/eject the
tape after it has completed a job? I am currently setting up RunAfterJob script
to email me the status of the job i.e. completed/failed
many thanks
