[Bacula-users] dbi?

Hi!

As bacula does support libdbi since 3.x, the configure script
has --with-dbi and --with-dbi-driver=(mysql|postgres|sqlite3).

When I want to build with dbi support, do I have to disable
any of the --with-mysql/--with-postgresql/--with-sqlite3
(making it --without-[...])?

How do I configure the director to use a dbi database?
It seems that...

        Catalog {
                Name = PostgreSQL
                DB Driver = "libdbi:postgres"
                DB Address = 127.0.0.1
                DB Port = 5432
                DB Name = "bacula"
                User = "bacula"
                Password = "secret"
        }

...does the trick, but the doc section "The Catalog Resource"
days nothing about it -- I had to look in the doc section
"libdbi Framework", it made me figure out the "DB Driver" part.
I think the catalog section should have a link to the dbi
section in the manual :)

Does --enable-batch-insert affect dbi builds of Bacula?
It seems so, according to the paragraph
"The following drivers have been tested:".

Also, the section says:

        Currently the drivers supported by Bacula are: postgresql,
        mysql, sqlite, sqlite3; these are the names that may be
        added to string "dbi:".

I only made PostgreSQL work by using "postgres" as the string
after "libdbi:", not "postgresql". Where's the error, in the
docs or the program? :) As sqlite<3 support has been dropped
from 5.0.0, it might be a good idea to also remove it from
the dbi section, if it's desired.

Thanks!
