For Debian or Ubuntu, refer to:

• https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli-apt?view=azure-cli-latest

Installation of the plugin

On the Bacula Storage Daemon that you want to connect to your cloud storage, extend the repository file for your package manager to contain a section for the Cloud plugin.

For example in RHEL, /etc/yum.repos.d/bacula.repo:

[Bacula]
name=Bacula Enterprise
baseurl=https://www.baculasystems.com/dl/@customer-id@/rpms/bin/@version@/rhel9-64/
enabled=1
protect=0
gpgcheck=0

[Bacula EnterpriseCloudPlugin]
name=Bacula Enterprise Cloud Plugin
baseurl=https://www.baculasystems.com/dl/@customer-id@/rpms/cloud-azure/@version@/rhel9-64/
enabled=1
protect=0
gpgcheck=0

or in Debian Bookworm, /etc/apt/sources.list.d/bacula.list:

#Bacula Enterprise
deb https://baculasystems.com/dl/@customer-id@/debs/bin/@version@/bookworm-64/ bookworm main
deb https://baculasystems.com/dl/@customer-id@/debs/cloud-azure/@version@/bookworm-64/ bookworm cloud-azure

Then perform a yum update or apt-get update, and after that the package bacula-enterprise-cloud-storage-azure can be installed with yum install or apt-get install.

If you prefer to manually install the packages, you can also download them from your download area, and use one of the low level package manager tools (rpm or dpkg) to do the plugin installation.
