Not specifically. I was planning to keep the configuration part of the project (i.e. Bacula specific) separate from the VM part. That is, the creation of the VM would be one step, and the loading of the configuration would be another step. That way, a new target VM could be created by and added to the mix. I think there would be three main parts to this process: - installing of software (OS specific) - configuration (Bacula specific, but slightly OS-specific too; e.g. file locations) - export of VM for distribuation -- Dan Langille - http://langille.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
