Hi

I know this sounds a bit odd but here we go.

I will be using bacula with it's regular backup/restore facilities however
I have a requirement for machine independence. I would like to be able to
boot off the network and download a fileset that would then reconfigure
itself based on whatever hardware it was deployed to. This fileset would
also need to be managed outside of bacula so we could make changes to it
and then send those changes to machines in an platform neutral way.

HTH sorry if it is a bit vague.

Richard
