Backup Clients

A Bacula client is a system whose files can be backed up. All the clients that you wish to backup files on must be listed on this page, and each must have the Bacula file daemon running on it. In a typical single-system setup, on this server needs to be listed.

When adding remote clients, in addition to the hostname you also need to know the name of it's Bacula file daemon, and the daemon's password. These are set in the /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf file on the client system.

If shown, the TLS options on the client page determine if encryption is used when this director communicates with the client. Before TLS can be enabled, you must generate an SSL certificate and key, and enter their paths into the appropriate fields on this form.
