Prerequisites

The Plugin Directory directive of the File Daemon resource in /opt/bacula/etc/bacula-fd.conf must point to the location where the libvirt-fd.so plugin is installed. The default directory is: /opt/bacula/plugins.

FileDaemon {
  Name = bacula-fd
  Plugin Directory = /opt/bacula/plugins
  ...
}

Installation Steps

To install the Bacula File Daemon, refer to PackageManagerBERHELCentOS.

To install the Libvirt Plugin, configure the Libvirt Plugin repository and install the package using a package manager.

For example, the Libvirt Plugin repository for a RHEL repository, named /etc/yum.repos.d/Bacula-Enterprise-Libvirt-plugin.repo, should have the following contents:

[Bacula-Enterprise-Libvirt-plugin]
name= Bacula Enterprise
baseurl=https://www.baculasystems.com/dl/@@customer@@/rpms/libvirt/@@bee-version@@/@@rhel@@-@@arch@@/
enabled=1
protect=0
gpgcheck=1

Then, use either dnf install or yum install to install the Libvirt Plugin:

# yum install bacula-enterprise-libvirt-plugin

or

# dnf install bacula-enterprise-libvirt-plugin
