Features

In order to deliver high quality solutions with reduced total cost of ownership, Bacula Enterprise represents the opportunity to do exactly this, by offering a particularly broad range of features. Its two Proxmox modules are just some of these many features.

Bacula has two different plugins for Proxmox. The first is a Proxmox module where FULL backups are supported, and both virtual machines and LXC containers can be backed up very efficiently. The second is a QEMU module, where FULL and INCREMENTAL backups of QEMU virtual machines are supported. DIFFERENTIAL backups are not supported yet. This module does not backup LXC containers.

Both modules provide fast, effective virtual machine bare metal recovery including QEMU and LXC guests.

Detailed list of features of the Proxmox module:

• Snapshot-based online backup of any guest VM including QEMU and LXC guests

• Full image-level backup

• Ability to restore complete virtual machine image

• Ability to restore QEMU VM archive (.vma) to an alternate directory

• Ability to restore LXC VM archive (.tar) and configuration to an alternate directory

• Ability to scan a Proxmox cluster to automatically create a backup configuration for each virtual machine
