Limitations

This article presents the current limitations of the OpenStack Plugin.

• For the plugin to function properly, the proxy server must be a Nova server in the OpenStack environment running a Linux distribution.

• Virtual Full jobs are not supported.

• The restart command has certain limitations with plugins, as it initiates the Job from the beginning instead of resuming it. Bacula determines whether a Job is to be restarted or continued, however, using the restart command will result in a new Job when using the OpenStack Plugin.
