Hello there.
I have a problem regarding the catalog backup. The normal client backup
works like a charm though. Any form of help would be highly appreciated!
I'm struggling a bit since I'm new to bacula.
Client is a Windows 2012 Server
Backup Server is a Debian 8 Server.
Is a backup of the catalog even a good idea in my case, since database and
storage run on the same machine?
Thank you for your help!
Attached is my dir config (slightly modified).
Here is the error message:
