All the required Configuration Files are located at /etc/bacula directory Main configuration files are bacula-dir.conf bacula-fd.conf bacula-sd.conf bconsole.conf Client/File Daemon configuration (/etc/bacula-fd.conf) # # List Directors who are permitted to contact this File daemon # Director { Name = backup1-dir Password = "baculatest" } # # "Global" File daemon configuration specifications # FileDaemon { # this is me Name = client1-fd FDport = 9102 # where we listen for the director WorkingDirectory = /var/lib/bacula Pid Directory = /var/run/bacula Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20 } # Send all messages except skipped files back to Director Messages { Name = Standard director = backup1-dir = all, !skipped } This client will only respond to a Director with the name backup1-dir and the password baculatest If you want to know more about this configuration file check here Storage Devices (/etc/bacula-sd.conf) Bacula's concept of a storage device is it doesn't care if it is backing up to tape or disk. It's just a storage device Storage { # definition of myself Name = backup1-sd SDPort = 9103 # Director's port WorkingDirectory = "/var/lib/bacula" Pid Directory = "/var/run/bacula" Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20 } # # List Directors who are permitted to contact Storage daemon # Director { Name = backup1-dir Password = "bacula-storage" } # # Devices supported by this Storage daemon # To connect, the Director's bacula-dir.conf must have the # same Name and MediaType. # # A 'QUANTUM DLT VS160' tape drive # Device { Name = DLT-VS160 # Media Type = DLT Archive Device = /dev/nst0 AutomaticMount = yes; # !! mount drive after job Always Open = yes; # not unmount, via new bconsole script (if console unmount) RemovableMedia = yes; RandomAccess = no; } # Send all messages to the Director, # mount messages also are sent to the email address # Messages { Name = Standard director = backup1-dir = all } As with the Client configuration file, the password must be supplied by the Director with the given name. I am giving example of using DLT tape drive in storage device If you want to know more configuration options for this file check here Director Configuration (/etc/bacula-dir.conf) The Director's configuration is by necessity the largest of the daemons, defining each Client, Job, FileSet, and Storage Device. Director { # define myself Name = backup1-dir DIRport = 9101 # where we listen for UA connections QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/scripts/query.sql" WorkingDirectory = "/var/lib/bacula" PidDirectory = "/var/run/bacula" Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1 SubSysDirectory = "/var/lock/subsys" Password = "test-bacula" # Console password Messages = Standard } Job { Name = "NightlySave" Type = Backup Client = client1-fd FileSet = "Full Set" Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" Storage = DLT Messages = Standard Pool = Default Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/NightlySave1.bsr" Max Start Delay = 15h Priority = 11 } # Standard Restore template, to be changed by Console program Job { Name = "RestoreFiles" Type = Restore Client=backup1-fd FileSet="Full Set" Storage = DLT Pool = Default Messages = Standard Where = /tmp/bacula-restores } # Standard Restore template, to be changed by Console program Job { Name = "RestoreFiles" Type = Restore Client=backup1-fd FileSet="Full Set" Storage = DLT Pool = Default Messages = Standard Where = /tmp/bacula-restores } Exclude { File = /proc File = /tmp File = /.journal File = /.fsck } } #----- SCHEDULE for client1 -----# Schedule { Name = "WeeklyCycle" Run = Level=Full Pool=SundayPool Monday at 0:10am Run = Level=Full Pool=MondayPool Tuesday at 0:10am Run = Level=Full Pool=TuesdayPool Wednesday at 0:10am Run = Level=Full Pool=WednesdayPool Wednesday at 0:10pm Run = Level=Full Pool=ThursdayPool Friday at 0:10am Run = Level=Full Pool=FridayPool Saturday at 0:10am Run = Level=Full Pool=SaturdayPool Sunday at 0:10am } # Client (File Services) to backup Client { Name = client1-fd Address = 10.36.69.7 FDPort = 9102 Catalog = MyCatalog Password = "bacula" # password for FileDaemon File Retention = 30 days # 30 days Job Retention = 6 months # six months AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files } Storage { Name = DLT Address = 10.36.69.5 # N.B.

Some tape drives are not standard. They work with their proprietary software and can be temperamental when used with other software. Each drive model can have its own little quirks that need to be catered for. Fortunately, Bacula comes with a handy little utility for testing your drive. We used btape to test tape drive #btape -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf /dev/nst0 *test this will test your tape drive if there are any errors it will display here If you want to know the more options available for btape command check here Finding your tape drive In most of debian machine if you are using SCSCI card with external tape drives like dell power edge 112T,114T you tape device is /dev/nst0 and in very rare case /dev/st0.Important point is you need to install two important packages for tape mtx and mt-st You can find you tape device using mt command #mt status Checking Bacula Daemons Status # ps auwx | grep bacula root 6447 0.0 0.1 5376 1556 ?
