Thank you for the advice, Tilman! I tried to configure just the SD on the storage server by using this command: CFLAGS="-g -Wall" ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/bacula --with-scriptdir=/etc/bacula --enable-smartalloc --with-working-dir=/var/bacula --with-pid-dir=/var/run --enable-readline --disable-build-dird
However, it says: You have not specified either --enable-client-only or one of the supported databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite3. This is not permitted. Please reconfigure. Do I need to install MySQL and use --with-mysql even if I only want the SD? --Shawn On 2/10/18, 8:38 AM, "Tilman Schmidt" <til...@imap.cc> wrote: Am 10.02.2018 um 01:50 schrieb Shawn Rappaport: > I currently have a CentOS 7 server set up with > [...] the Dir, SD and MySQL running on the > same server in our Las Vegas datacenter.

Do I need to install Bacula with SD > on each of the storage servers? Yes. More precisely, you need to install *just* the SD on each of the storage servers. (Plus the FD if you also want to back up data residing on the storage server itself.) > If so, how do I let the Director know > about the other SD servers Just add for each of them a Storage definition to your director configuration, giving the correct Address at which the director can reach it. Make sure any intervening firewalls allow access from the director to TCP port 9103 of the SD. Also make sure the Storage resources are named uniquely across all SDs. > and then configure the clients to back up > their data to a specific SD server for each location? Just add to every Job definition a Storage line giving the name of a storage residing on the correct SD for the client backed up by that job.
