I think either I just ran into a corner-case configuration error, or my understanding of how the different components of Bacula interact is incomplete. Does the SD actually touch the catalog database directly, or is all interaction with the catalog through the director?
Reason for asking: I'm upgrading systems from 3.0.1 to 3.0.3. Configuring the server went fine. Configuring one specific client, which will also have a secondary FD, I figured that if I wasn't building the director I didn't need to specify a database, so I didn't. My configuration directive was as follows: ./configure --prefix=/opt/bacula --enable-build-stored --enable-static-sd --enable-static-tools --enable-static-fd --enable-build-dird=no --with-gnu-ld --with-openssl=/usr --with-subsys-dir=/opt/bacula/working --with-working-dir=/opt/bacula/working --mandir=/opt/bacula/man [email protected] [email protected] --with-smtp-host=smtp.caerllewys.net This resulted in the following error: You have not specified either --enable-client-only or one of the supported databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite3, SQLite or DBI. This is not permitted. Please reconfigure. SHOULD building a SD require that a database be specified? I thought that all database interaction was confined to the Director, and that only the director needed to be built against a DB client library. -- Phil Stracchino, CDK#2 DoD#299792458 ICBM: 43.5607, -71.355 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Renaissance Man, Unix ronin, Perl hacker, Free Stater It's not the years, it's the mileage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
