A puppet module to manage Bacula Directors, Storagedaemons and Filedaemons. Puppet certificates are used for TLS. Optional firewall and monit support is included.

Module usage

The Puppet manifests written for Vagrant show how to use the module:

Windows notes

The ::bacula::filedaemon class supports configuring Bacula Filedaemon on Windows, including poking holes for the Bacula Director into Windows firewall and reusing Puppet's TLS certificates. Monit support is missing.

Use forward slashes in paths you want to backup:

'C:/Program Files/Bacula'

Even though double backslashes seemed to work as well, they made browsing (and hence restoring) the backups using bconsole impossible.
