bacula on redhat

bulldozers · 10-27-2009, 06:06 AM

Dears,

I have networked system of 14 servers. All have redhatEL CentOS installed on them. I prepared separate server to run the director process of bacula.

I want now to install bacula. Could u plz advise the best way to install bacula?
RPM or source or using YUM?

Thanks in advance for ur time.

well yum will only get an rpm, so that's irrelevant, either way a packaged rpm for el5 would be the normal way, but if you wish to modify the base build significantly you're free to use source if you wish. nothign wrong with that at all.

thanks for the reply.

I've googled bacula.org but only find source to be rebuild and...
I will appreciate if some one help me in finding a site that describe the needed RPMs to be installed... I couldn't find any site that describe the whole installation and configuration process.

Thanks for your time.

Bacula is in the epel repo.

Thanks again for the support.

I added epel repo to yum as follows:
rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...5-3.noarch.rpm

and then tried `yum install bacula` and got "No match for argument: bacula"

Thanks for your time.

Bacula is not just one package it is a bunch of smaller packages, have a look above.
