How to store bacula (community-edition) backup on Amazon S3?

Question

I am using centOS-7 machine, bacula community-edition 11.0.5 and PostgreSql Database

Bacula is used to take full and incremental backup

I followed bellow document link to store the backup on an Amazon S3 bucket.

https://www.bacula.lat/community/bacula-storage-in-any-cloud-with-rclone-and-rclone-changer/?lang=en

I configured storage daemon as they shown in the above link, once after the backup, backup is success and backed up file storing in the given path /mnt/vtapes/tapes, but backup-file is not moving from /mnt/vtapes/tapes to AWS s3 bucket.

In the above document mentioned as, we need to create Schedule routines to the cloud to move backup file from /mnt/vtapes/tapes to Amazon S3 bucket.

**I am not aware of what is cloud Schedule routines in AWS, whether it is any cloud lambda function or something else?

Is there any S3 cloud driver which support bacula backup or any other way to store bacula-community backup file on Amazon S3 other than S3FS-Fuse and libs3 ?

Answer 1

The link which you shared is for bacula-enterprise, we are using bacula-community. so any related document you prefer for bacula-community edition

Answer 2

Bacula Community include AWS S3 cloud driver starting from 9.6.0. Check https://www.bacula.org/11.0.x-manuals/en/main/main.pdf - Chapter 3, New Features in 9.6.0. And additional: 4.0.1 New Commands, Resource, and Directives for Cloud. This is the same exact driver available at Enterprise version.
