Package: bacula-director Version: 9.6.7-7 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
The bacula director configuration file can get very big and messy, especially when backing up many clients. bacula-director supports the inclusion of subfiles in configuration files, as documented here: https://www.bacula.org/9.6.x-manuals/en/main/Customizing_Configuration_F.html#SECTION002023000000000000000 (This is also the case in all newer upstream versions.) Therefore, could you please, in keeping with the way other Debian packages are doing this: 1. Create a new (empty) directory "/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf.d/" 2. Add the following snipped to "/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf": # Include subfiles associated with configuration of clients. # They define the bulk of the Clients, Jobs, and FileSets. # Remember to "reload" the Director after adding a client file. # @|"sh -c 'for f in /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf.d/*.conf ; do echo @${f} ; done'" Thank you Niels -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-23-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages bacula-director depends on: ii bacula-common 9.6.7-7 ii bacula-director-mysql 9.6.7-7 ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20220412cvs-1 ii init-system-helpers 1.65.2 ii libc6 2.36-9+deb12u1 ii libstdc++6 12.2.0-14 ii sysvinit-utils 3.06-4 ii ucf 3.0043+nmu1 bacula-director recommends no packages.
