Hello, Thank you, and sorry for not giving any update in a timely fashion.
I tried to supply ALL parameters as indicated on the console.pdf doc.
Unfortunately, nothing happens.
FYI, I use the v 7.4.4 MS Windows client
Just to summarize for any of you that catch this thread now :
The goal is to perform a restore from the client, using the tray monitor
and bcmd file, the same way as a client initated backup, to bypass NAT and
not require a VPN
I also tested with the Windows bconsole client in such a manner that the
bconsole connects to the localhost client-fd instead of the director (to
replicate the client initated backup connection scheme)
and maybe obtain some detailed debug information, but it does not work too.
(as if the restore command was not implemented)
If it should work with the tray that may mean that I supplied bad
parameters/values for the restore command. Any detailed info on the values
required would be nice (I assume all the ID are in the director/sd conf
file)
Also, Any idea on how to enable real verbose debugging of tray/bconsole
operation (for the moment my only way is to lookup the source code for
hints)
And if it is not supposed to work, then it means that a VPN is required for
restores, I suppose... and since restores are more rare than backups, that
would make sense,
but it would nevertheless be a nice feature to have.
Any ideas ?
