Bacula is a set of computer programs that permit you (or the system
administrator) to manage backup, recovery, and verification of
computer data across a network of computers of different kinds.
In technical terms, it is a network Client/Server based backup program.
Bacula is relatively easy to use and efficient, while offering many
advanced storage management features that make it easy to find and
recover lost or damaged files. Due to its modular design, Bacula is
scalable from small single computer systems to systems consisting of
hundreds of computers located over a large network.
===> The following configuration options are available for bacula11-server-11.0.6_7:
IPV6=on: IPv6 protocol support
MTX=off: Install mtx for control of autochanger devices
NLS=on: Native Language Support
S3=off: Install S3 plugin
====> Options available for the multi BACKEND: you have to choose at least one of them
SQLITE3=off: SQLite 3 database support
MYSQL=off: MySQL database support
PGSQL=on: PostgreSQL database support
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
bacula server was installed
A database upgrade is required if upgrading from Bacula < 9.0.
See /usr/local/share/bacula/update_bacula_tables
An auto-changer manipulation script based on FreeBSDs
chio command is included and installed at
/usr/local/sbin/chio-bacula
Please have a look at it if you want to use an
autochanger. You have to configure the usage in
/usr/local/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf
Take care of correct permissions for changer and
tape device (e.g. /dev/ch0 and /dev/n[r]sa0) i.e.
they must be accessible by user bacula.
Due to lack of some features in the FreeBSD tape driver
implementation you MUST add some OS dependent options to
the bacula-sd.conf file:
Hardware End of Medium = no;
Backward Space Record = no;
Backward Space File = no;
With 2 filemarks at EOT (see man mt):
Fast Forward Space File = no;
BSF at EOM = yes;
TWO EOF = yes;
With 1 filemarks at EOT (see man mt):
Fast Forward Space File = yes;
BSF at EOM = no;
TWO EOF = no;
NOTE: YOU CAN SWITCH EOT model ONLY when starting
from scratch with EMPTY tapes.
It is also important that all the scripts accessed
by RunBeforeJob and RunAfterJob will be executed by
the user bacula. Check your permissions.
For USB support read the bacula manual. It could be necessary
to configure/compile a new kernel.
Look at /usr/local/share/bacula/update_bacula_tables for
database update procedure. Details can be found in the
ReleaseNotes
If you are using sqlite you need to run the make_sqlite_tables script as
the bacula user. Do this using 'sudo su -m bacula'.
sysutils/bacula11*: revert 'Remove expired bacula11 ports"
I'm a month early.
This reverts commit ea825e27e6509f78d11e26e13a4bf83aaca17110.
In order to commit this revert, I had to remove distinfo from
net-mgmt/nagios-check_bacula11 because it did not contain a
timestamp - the file is not required because it is a slave
port.
sysutils/bacula*-{client,server}: fix rc script names

sysutils/bacula*-server: rc.d corrections
When both MySQL and PostgreSQL are selected, make sure the rc.d script
is correct. Further more, I must reverse my clever idea to "remove a
space within files/bacula-dir.in".
Next time, I should notice the PR contains a patch for the problem I'm
fixing.

sysutils/bacula*-server: set rc.d REQUIRES
Correctly set the REQUIRES for bacula-dir to one of:
* mysql
* postgresql
This setting was lost sometime after bacula5-server
While here, remove a space within files/bacula-dir.in so the resulting
REQUIRES contains only one space.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

*/*: Remove redundant '-*' from CONFLICTS definitions
The conflict checks compare the patterns first against the package
names without version (as reported by "pkg query "%n"), then - if
there was no match - agsinst the full package names including the
version (as reported by "pkg query "%n-%v").
