Greetings!
It has been literally months ago, but I did participate (a little bit)
in this list then! :-)
I backup my Linux system to two different USB disks. This is working
perfectly!
Well, I also have a Sun Solaris (8) system, and I *finally* got a
larger hard drive for it! I have installed all of Solaris on it, and I
now have enough disk space to do a few "extra" things!
Well, among the first of those "extra" things is I'm going to get
MySQL and bacula going on it!
Actually, mysql is now running. And, I am in the process of getting
gcc and some things from http://www.sunfreeware.com/ in place.
(My first attempt at compiling bacula failed, but I'm still getting
things in place and "ironed out.")
My situation is, the USB drives are on the Linux system. And, there
is no USB on this Sun Ultra 30, so they will always be on the Linux
system, so I'll be "network" backing up. (At least, until I look into USB
for the Sun, if I ever want to.)
I trust this will be okay. I am mentioning this to you who are so
much more experienced with bacula, so if there is something I'm missing,
perhaps one of you could tell me.
At the moment, I'm really compiling version 1.38.5, because it is the
same version I'm running on the Linux system.
If anyone knows of anything in particular of which I should be aware
about compiling bacula for Solaris, I'd appreciate hearing it. (I know it
is successful on Solaris, and I will be checking the web site for what it
says regarding Solaris. At the moment, it's failing on the targets
'libbac.a', 'libfind.a' and 'libsql.a'. As I get more things in place,
I'll do research on what I need to do for these.)
This is just my first message to this list in a long time, though I
continue to get it, and I've saved every message I've received. (I can
search through them, as well, as I start to research things.)
Thank you!
Barry
