Bacula Enterprise IRIS Plugin is a Bacula File Daemon plugin that uses IRIS binaries (iris and irissession) to interact with the underlying instance and databases. The plugin runs a Java daemon that abstracts the local communication layer and emits backup artifacts (.cbk dumps, journal files, and metadata) to the Bacula Storage Daemon.

Instance discovery is performed via iris qlist, and restore operations invoke IRIS routines such as EXTALL^DBREST and EXTSELCT^DBREST using the configured iris_owner_user.

For more information about IRIS binaries and commands, see:
