Certainly not. It isn't needed. As for the "expected locations", I
understand, but unfortunately
the people who invented them didn't understand backup, or maybe they did
by permitting
/opt/xxx and /srv/yyy, but other people don't seem to realize the
problems they create
by forbidding the use of /opt/bacula.
No need to respond. I never imagined any packager would listen to me, so
that is OK, but
for those of you who build yourself, please consider using /opt/bacula,
but be sure to
exclude /opt/bacula/working. It is best to backup /opt/bacula at the
same time you
do your catalog backup, then email the bsr to a different machine. With
that disaster
recovery is much easier.
