Bacula is in the freebsd freshports. Currently 11.0.5 is the highest version. There are other versions there as well. To use it you create a jail, then you can install from freshports. You can mount your datasets into the jail from the jails tool.
Now truenas scale you either have to side load or compile. I not to that point yet. I'm still testing backing up my cores first. I did ask in ix discord about bacula and scale but didn't a response. It's probably still to cutting edge at this point. I gotten sas tape drives and loaders working in the jail. Freebsd uses a different program to change media. The script included with the freshport doesn't work correctly. I had to modify it. My tape system has an iscsi bridge which doesn't work in freebsd. I had to run the SD in Linux. I did have to compile bacula in Linux so I could get the versions to match. If you want I can post my code how I got it all working.

Hello all, I was looking for a Bacula Plugin for a recent TrueNAS Core (bacula-fd to backup its content, bacula-dir, bacula-sd to backup other machines’ content). I can see that there has been a Bacula Plugin maintained by iX-Systems for FreeNAS in the past, but it has been abandoned by iX-Systems. Since TrueNAS Core is the closest we get for free to something like an enterprise storage appliance, I was assuming it makes a lot of sense and there is a lot of demand to have Bacula for TrueNAS Core. I haven’t found it in the Community Plugins either. I saw that someone on this list was compiling Bacula for TrueNAS Core, so it must be feasible. Are just too few people here using TrueNAS Core? Or has everyone gone through compiling it for themselves? Wouldn’t it be more “user-friendly” to have a plugin? Maybe no-one has sufficient motivation to make and maintain one (yeah, I know someone is going to respond “why don’t you do it?”). Or is there another explanation? Or is there actually a Bacula Plugin for TrueNAS Core and I just did not look right and did not find it? All the best, I am looking forward to your thoughts on this.
