Displays most recent successful job for each client's fileset pools on one page and additionally compares it to your configured jobs to show by markup, whether a backup is missing. Moreover you can configure for defined pools a timeout value (in days), after that the backup should be marked up as old (yellow). Your config file (you have to specify the path in functions.py) will be parsed for the configured clients and thus checked for connectivity on port 9102, to indicate whether your client's bacula service is up or down. Besides printing the recent backups you can also tell bacula_stats to print all backups to the console.
bacula_stats is the CLI version of bacula_monitor. It is easier deployable, distributable and more secure than bacula_monitor.
Install with your distro's package manager netcat
pip3 install bacula_stats
See etc/bacula_stats.conf as an example for your config file.
usage: bacula_stats [-h] [-a] [-r]
bacula_stats - Display recent and all backups.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-a, --all Return all backups.
-r, --recent Return recent backups
Preferably pipe bacula_stats to less to scroll conveniently through your backup stats:
bacula_stats |less -R --tilde
In your .bashrc put:
function bstats() {
bacula_stats "$@" | less --tilde -R
}
To print the most recent backups use for example bacula_stats -r or with using the above bash wrapper bstats -r
