Description

abort_on_error

No

No

No, Yes

Yes

If set to Yes: Abort job as soon as any error is found with any element. If set to No: Jobs can continue even if it they found a problem with some elements. They will try to backup or restore the other and only show a warning

config_file

No

The path pointing to a file containing any combination of plugin parameters

/opt/bacula/etc/amazon-rds.settings

Allows to define a config file where configure any parameter of the plugin. Therefore you don’t need to put them directly in the Plugin line of the fileset

log

No

/opt/bacula/working/amazon-rds/amazon-rds-debug.log

An existing path with enough permissions for File Daemon to create a file with the provided name

/tmp/amazon-rds.log

Generates additional log in addition to what is shown in job log. This parameter is included in the backend file, so, in general, by default the log is going to be stored in the working directory.

debug

No

0

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Debug level. Greater values generate more debug information

Generates the working/amazon-rds/amazon-rds-debug.log* files containing debut information which is more complete with a greater debug number

path

No

/opt/bacula/working

An existing path with enough permissions for File Daemon to create any internal (and usually temporary) plugin file

/mnt/my-vol/

Uses this path to store metadata and temporary files

This is an example of a config_file with the Fileset Connection Parameters options:

# cat /opt/bacula/etc/amazon-rds.settings
region=us-east-1
access_key=AKIAQTESTKEY12134g
secret_key=m23480ahpqwre894qwrffsfdSecretExample
