Hello Developers,
I found a following issue reported at bugs.bacula.org: "0002340: Bacula
doesn't set db_driver by default when you compile" and I have some
questions about it. What I can find in Bacula documentation about a
dbdriver parameter is:
*Catalog { Name = MyCatalog dbdriver = dbi:mysql; dbaddress = 127.0.0.1;
dbport = 3306 dbname = regress; user = regress; password = ""}*
*The parameter dbdriver indicates that we will use the driver dbi with a
mysql database. Currently the drivers supported by Bacula are:
postgresql, and mysql; these are the names that may be added to string
”dbi:”.*
So, as I understand the dbdriver is a parameter used by a DBI to select
what database backend it should use. I think that current Bacula (9.x) does
not support a libdbi anymore, so I think that a documentation and a Bacula
code itself should be updated in this case, or I miss a different purpose
of this parameter?
I checked it and the current Bacula code just ignore the dbdriver parameter
completely and I can set it to any value I like. Sure the value set in
config file will be displayed in show catalog command mentioned in the
above ticket.
best regards
