Re: [Bacula-users] Adding a client remotely

If you're using chef I'd suggest splitting out each of your client config files into their own conf file and use chef templates to create them. Then have a cron script check if there are any new/changed conf files and reload the director config if their are. This is what I do.

I was able to successfully install bacula. Now the next step.

I use chef to spin up various systems on aws, I need to back up each of
these systems. I am able to manually go to the bacula box and add my
clients.

Is there a way to programatically (scripts, bconsole, whatever) register
a client on the bacula box? Basically add a client to bacula-dir.conf
and schedule the necessary jobs.

Thanks for your answers!
