Variables

Server

Note: More options can be seen in defaults/main.yml

• bareos_install_server - Install packages valid for server (false). Note that this also installs postgresql!
• bareos_setup_db - Check if postgresql DB bareos exists. If not, create and fill with data (false)
• bareos_sensu_postgres_pass - Set pass for user sensu to postgresql
• bareos_director - If you need to override backup director IP address on your client's /etc/hosts

bareos_director:
  ip: 10.0.0.1
  name: backup

• bareos_clients - List of clients in following format:

bareos_clients:
  - name: some-hostname
    ansible_delegate_hostname: some-hostname
    address: 10.1.1.1
    password: MySuperSecretPassword
    enable_backup_job: true
    state: present                      # optional
    autostart: true                     # optional
    director_ip: 10.0.0.1               # optional
    director_name: backup               # optional
    max_job_bandwidth: 1 mb/s           # optional

NOTES:

• enable_backup_job - Will create backup job DefaultJobLinux
• state - When set to absent, client will be removed from server config (default: present)
• autostart - Schedule first backup right away (default: true)
• director_ip - [Optional] Same as bareos_director, just different place to setup
