Short answer: You don't :-)
In the JobDefs, you have the common settings for the jobs referring
this default setup.
In each job, you overload the settings that change, in your case, the
FileSet.
So you end up with a common JobDefs resource used by all your jobs,
and in each job definition, you have a line for the FileSet, the
Client, and the bootstrap file to write. Of course, other settings
could be changed, too - for example the schedule, the pools to use,
and the retention times.
You end up with something like this:
JobDefs {
Name = DefaultJob
... default settings
}
Client {
Name = 1
...
}
Client {
Name = 2
...
}
FileSet {
Name = F1
...
}
FileSet {
Name = F2
...
}
Job {
Name = J1
JobDefs = DefaultJob
Client = 1
Fileset = F1
...
}
Job {
Name = J2
JobDefs = DefaultJob
Client = 2
FileSet = F2
...
}
Does that make more sense?

Re: [Bacula-users] need help defining client files for backup...
Guys,
If I understand you correctly, the following should be a_piece_ of the
bacula-dir.conf. I want to understand this but the problem still remains, how
do I tie the files on WEB1, DB2 and RptEngine into the default job?
JobDefs {
Name = "DefaultJob"
Type = Backup
Level = Incremental
Client = DURANGO-fd
FileSet = "Full Set"
Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
Storage = DAT72
Messages = ConsOnly# no email during testing
Pool = Default
Priority = 10
}
# Localhost to backup
Client {
Name = DURANGO-fd
Address = DURANGO
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = "l4...y"# password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 30 days# 30 days
Job Retention = 6 months# six months
AutoPrune = yes# Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
# Local files
FileSet {
Name = "Full Set"
Include {
Options { signature = MD5 }
File = /home/dgardner
}
}
#
# Database Client to backup
#
Client {
Name = DB2-fd
Address = DB2
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = "l4...2"# password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 30 days# 30 days
Job Retention = 6 months# six months
AutoPrune = yes# Prune expired Jobs/Files
}
# Database files
FileSet {
Name = "Full Set"
Include {
Options { Compression=GZIP }
File = /var/lib/mysql/airadvice-backup/c*
}
}
#
# Web Server Client to backup

Client {
Name = WEB1-fd
Address = WEB1
FDPort = 9102

Password = "l4...2"# password for FileDaemon
File Retention = 30 days# 30 days

You define the necessary clients first.
Then you create the filesets you need - there will be at least four of
them.
/home/, /var/lib/mysql/, and /web/sites/ are easy.
/usr/local/reports/A*.pdf will need wildcards or regexes in an options
clause.
Nte that backing up the mysql database files while the database server
is running is useless - you need to shut down the database server, or
dump the databases you're interested in to a file and back up that (or
these) files.
Hope that gets you started,
Arno

Re: [Bacula-users] need help defining client files for backup...
Arno,
Are you suggesting I create multiple fileset (directives) within
bacula-dir.conf? If so, how do I identify the fileset with the client?
That is the root of my confusion, I cannot figure out how to correlate a group
of files/directories with hosts.

[Bacula-users] need help defining client files for backup...
Hey gang,
I've read through all the docs I can find on the subject but just
cannot decipher the correct method of describing in a fileset which
directories on which client machine should be backed up.
Here's the Linux Server:/directories I want backed up where the
connections have all been made and I successfully backed up the local files:
{localhost:}/home/*
RptEngine1:/usr/local/reports/A*.pdf
DB2:/var/lib/mysql/*
WEB1:/web/sites/*
Any help would be appreciated.
