======== PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQLite databases
|
|
|
|
Bacula director supports different databases backends, if you want to switch
|
|
away from the default PostgreSQL one you need to change the "libbaccats" (the
|
|
catalogue library) symlink to the real library. The following examples use
|
|
version 5.2.5, substitute it with the version you have installed.
|
|
|
|
Show the current database backend:
|
|
|
|
# alternatives --display libbaccats.so
|
|
libbaccats.so - status is manual.
|
|
link currently points to /usr/lib64/libbaccats-postgresql-5.2.5.so
|
|
/usr/lib64/libbaccats-mysql-5.2.5.so - priority 50
|
|
slave libbaccats-5.2.5.so: /usr/lib64/libbaccats-mysql-5.2.5.so
|
|
/usr/lib64/libbaccats-sqlite3-5.2.5.so - priority 40
|
|
slave libbaccats-5.2.5.so: /usr/lib64/libbaccats-sqlite3-5.2.5.so
|
|
/usr/lib64/libbaccats-postgresql-5.2.5.so - priority 60
|
|
slave libbaccats-5.2.5.so: /usr/lib64/libbaccats-postgresql-5.2.5.so
|
|
Current `best' version is /usr/lib64/libbaccats-postgresql-5.2.5.so.
|
|
|
|
To change to a different backend (i.e. MySQL), issue the following command:
|
|
|
|
# alternatives --set libbaccats.so /usr/lib64/libbaccats-mysql-5.2.5.so
|
|
|
|
Or this one to view the various options:
|
|
|
|
# alternatives --config libbaccats.so
|
|
|
|
There are 3 programs which provide 'libbaccats.so'.
|
|

======== Quick installation guide with the default PostgreSQL backend
|
|
|
|
Perform the following commands to install Bacula with its default configuration
|
|
and all daemons and consoles in one server.
|
|
|
|
1) Install packages
|
|
|
|
# yum -y install postgresql-server bacula-director bacula-storage \
|
|
bacula-client bacula-console bacula-console-bat
|
|
|
|
2) Create database
|
|
|
|
# postgresql-setup initdb
|
|
# systemctl enable postgresql.service
|
|
# systemctl start postgresql.service
|
|
# su - postgres
|
|
$ cd /usr/libexec/bacula
|
|
$ ./create_bacula_database
|
|
$ ./make_bacula_tables
|
|
$ ./grant_bacula_privileges
|
|
|
|
3) Change passwords in /etc/bacula/*conf with something you like. The default
|
|
configuration prevents startup if there is any "filler" password in the
|
|
configuration files.
|
|
|
|
# sed -i -e 's/@@DIR_PASSWORD@@/dir-Fedora/g' \
|
|
-e 's/@@FD_PASSWORD@@/fd-Fedora/g' \
|
|
-e 's/@@SD_PASSWORD@@/sd-Fedora/g' \
|
|
-e 's/@@MON_DIR_PASSWORD@@/mon-dir-Fedora/g' \
|
|
-e 's/@@MON_FD_PASSWORD@@/mon-fd-Fedora/g' \
|
|
-e 's/@@MON_SD_PASSWORD@@/mon-sd-Fedora/g' \
|
|
/etc/bacula/*conf
|
|
|
|
4) Enable daemons and check they are working
|
|
|
|
# systemctl enable bacula-dir.service
|
|
# systemctl enable bacula-sd.service
|
|
# systemctl enable bacula-fd.service
|
|
|
|
# systemctl start bacula-dir.service
|
|
# echo status bacula-dir | bconsole
|
|
|
|
# systemctl start bacula-sd.service
|
|
# echo status bacula-sd | bconsole
|
|
|
|
# systemctl start bacula-fd.service
|
|
# echo status bacula-fd | bconsole
|
|
|
|
5) Install the docs and read them!!
|
|
|
|
# yum -y install bacula-docs
|
|
