In testing is bacula 2.2.0, so for a production system you should
compile bacula 2.2.6 yourself and use something like GNU stow
to avoid "pollution" of the system.

What do you think? Is it a good idea to write a shell script which
exits with error code 0 if grep exits with either 0 or 1 and
with code 1 if grep exits with code 2 (the actual code for an error

Hello everybody,
at the moment there is no BartPE / PEBuilder plugin for bacula in the

You could backup to disk and migrate the files, when you
