Dear all,
I'm testing communty version of bacula in order to change backup sw
for app. 100 virtual and physical hosts. I would like to move all the
data to local storage and then move them to public cloud (Oracle
Object storage).
I believe that community version of the software suites our needs. I
have installed:
-version 9.6.5 of bacula on centos 7 computer
-oracle storage gateway (similar to aws SG - it moves data to object
storage and exposes it localy as nfsv4; for bacula this is backup
destination).
I have read this two documents regarding bacula and cloud
https://blog.bacula.org/whitepapers/CloudBackup.pdf
https://blog.bacula.org/whitepapers/ObjectStorage.pdf
It is mentioned it the document above, that Oracle Object storage is
not supported at the moment.
Is it possible to *configure* bacula Storage device in a way that uses
*Cloud media format* (directory with file parts as a volume, instead
of a single file as a volume) *without actual cloud sync* (Storage
Gateway does this in my case)? I am experimenting with variations of
the definition bellow, but I am unable to solve this issue for now (it
tries to initialize cloud plugin or it writes to a file, instead of a
directory).
Device {
Name = FSOciCloudStandard
# Device type = Cloud
Device type = File
# Cloud = OracleViaStorageGateway
Maximum Part Size = 100 MB
# Media Type = File
Media Type = CloudType
Archive Device = /mnt/baculatest_standard/backup
LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes;
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
RemovableMedia = no;
AlwaysOpen = no;
}
Is there any plan to support oracle object storage in near future? It
has S3 compatible API and bacula enterprise supports it...
Kind regards,
Ziga Zvan
