| 176 | == Configure Storage Daemon Connection == |
| 177 | In the Bacula Director configuration file, the Storage resource defines the Storage Daemon that the Director should connect to. We’ll configure the actual Storage Daemon in just a moment. |
| 178 | |
| 179 | Find the Storage resource, and replace the value of Address, localhost, with the private FQDN (or private IP address) of your backup server. It should look like this (substitute the highlighted word): |
| 180 | {{{ |
| 181 | Storage { |
| 182 | Name = File |
| 183 | # Do not use "localhost" here |
| 184 | Address = backup_server_private_FQDN / private IP # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here |
| 185 | SDPort = 9103 |
| 186 | Password = "ITXAsuVLi1LZaSfihQ6Q6yUCYMUssdmu_" |
| 187 | Device = FileStorage |
| 188 | Media Type = File |
| 189 | } |
| 190 | }}} |
| 191 | This is necessary because we are going to configure the Storage Daemon to listen on the private network interface, so remote clients can connect to it. |
