After trying and failing to use more low-level manual means, I`m now
pivoting and trying to adapt an existing Live Ubuntu ISO and install
appropriate Bacula packages and storage backend linkages using CUBIC.
I plan to test the ISO on local VirtualBox and ultimately bring it up in
a virtual CDROM on my cloud server`s ASMB9-iKV. I then want the ISO to
come up with all Bacula services primed and ready for a full system restore.
I`m not sure what the history was that led up to the removal of the Live
ISO from the community Bacula builds, but it`s taking a LOT of my time
to figure out how to do restores on an unstable system. Is there a
reason a basic universal Bacula recovery ISO isn't being built with each
community release ?
For what it's worth, this is my bare-metal restore procedure in my systems:
— Use another system to do a full restore of the target to an image on NAS
— Boot the target using SystemRescue
— Perform necessary system preparation
— Mount the NAS
— Copy the restored image from NAS to the target
This has always worked for me, and if I get something wrong the first
time around, the restore image is still there, I can just fix the
problem and re-copy without having to do another restore.
