Installation

In order to use the OpenStack Plugin, a Bacula File Daemon has to be installed on a Nova server running in the OpenStack environment. This instance is referred to as a proxy server throughout this document.

The proxy server needs to have network access to the OpenStack API. The default network adapter should be enough.

Since all backup interactions are conducted over the network, the Bacula Enterprise File Daemon must have access to the required OpenStack endpoints.

This is an example of the OpenStack endpoint list:
