Description

Bacula comes by night and sucks the vital essence from your computers. Bacula is a set of computer programs that permit you (or the system administrator) to manage backup, recovery, and verification of computer data across a network of computers of different kinds. In technical terms, it is a network Client/Server based backup program. Bacula is relatively easy to use and efficient, while offering many advanced storage management features that make it easy to find and recover lost or damaged files. Due to its modular design, Bacula is scalable from small single computer systems to systems consisting of hundreds of computers located over a large network. bacula-server contains the bacula-sd "storage daemon" that writes the backup data to the backup device. bacula-dir is the "director" that manages backups. bconsole is the management application to control the director and get status of file daemons and storage daemons.
