Bareos Release 17.2		Maik Außendorf is a graduated mathematician and studied mathematics and informatics at the University of Münster. In his diploma thesis he focused on the implementation of an artificial neural network in C+ under Solaris and Linux. After his studies he worked as a SAP Consultant at Siemens AG in Colombia. Between 1999 and 2003 he was Linux System Consultant and branch manager at Suse Linux AG in St. Augustin. During this period he carried out Linux- based customer projects, starting from conception and implementation to project management. In addition, he is co-author of the Susepress Linux Manager Guide. Today he is one of dass IT’s managing directors. Philipp Storz holds a masters degree in technical computer sciences from the University of Applied Science of Cologne. Between 2001 and 2003 he was a Linux consultant at Suse Linux AG. He was co-founder of the open source services company dass IT in 2004 and is working in the open source consulting and development now for over 14 years. Philipp Storz has written the first book about the open source backup solution Bacula, published by Open Source Press and is one of the project leaders of the Bacula fork Bareos.
Smart GNU/Linux Disaster Recovery management with DRLM & ReaR Brief introduction to the DRLM project, outstanding features and presentation of the latest version news. Report the status of our new testing tool (DATT) to provide more stable and robust versions. Expose the importance of testing in any DR system and how to integrate DRLM in your daily work to get our GNU/Linux OS DR environment verified on a continuous basis, minimizing time and effort.		Didac Oliveira is an open source and open standards enthusiast with high knowledge and expertise on IT systems design & implementation, expert in Virtualization technologies, High Availability, Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity. Founder and active maintainer at DRLM project (www.drlm.org), also contributed to other open source projects like Relax & Recover (ReaR) and Cfg2html.
Why Tape is essential for your Backup environment! Tape is dead? Not at all! Learn why you should still use tape or why you should now start to use tape, like Microsoft. Microsoft just started to use tape heavily. Why? Because of roadmap, future capabilities to increase capacity while still decreasing the cost per GB. In addition to the use case of Microsoft I will show you, why tape is vital for you backup environment. Finally I give you an update to the IBM Tape product portfolio, discuss the advantage of IBM Enterprise Tape and give you an outlook what coming next, like LTO8. biography: Josef Weingand is Business Development Manager for Tape Storage at IBM for Region DACH (Germany, Austria and Switzerland). He has 21 year of experience providing technical and sales support for Data Protection and Data Retention solutions. Josef support Clients, BP and IBM Sales to find the right backup and archive storage solution which is secure, meet the right performance requirements and is also cost-effective. Josef has co-authored several IBM Redbooks and developed several patents.		Josef Weingand is Business Development Manager for Tape Storage at IBM for Region DACH (Germany, Austria and Switzerland).

Bareos, BeeGFS and Grau OpenArchive (backup-to-disk-to-HSM) We have presented some of our concepts at the OSBC 2014 and have expanded our original setup over the past three years. The Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research operates several brain scanners for human and animal studies. Imaging techniques used here comprise magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET). We now also use other data intensive acquisition methods like advanced microscopy techniques. Research is often interdisciplinary with very heterogeneous characteristics of data and analysis methods. Backup requirements range between file systems with literally millions of very small files to files of 200 GB+ size. “Good Scientific Practice” mandates backup/archiving primary data and “everything else needed to reproduce published results” (tools, documentation of tool chains, intermediate results) – which is a veritable challenge in a high-end, dynamic lab environment. We use a Quantum i6000 (LTO-6) tape library with Grau OpenArchiver as HSM frontend (backup-to-disk using WORM tapes; one job per file; file archives < 5 GB; mostly unixoid backup clients). We present our experiences with several types of backup clients and, in particular, our strategy for backup and archiving of data from our Bee GFS parallel file system where we have some candidates for the new “incremental forever” paradigm.

Examine Bareos Logs In this presentation we will talk about examining bareos logs within the log-management tool elastic. You will hear something about how you can gather the logs in the right way. After collecting the logs it is also handy and awesome to inspect the collected data with kibana. After that i will also show you some enhanced filter methods to structure received debug logs of all three daemons so that it makes more sense. That makes it possible to visualize the workflow of bareos debug output in the same order as it happens.		Daniel Neuberger started his career after his apprenticeship as a qualified it speaclist in systemintegrations and employment as systemadministrator and consultant in 2012. After more than 4 years Linux and Open Source Backup Consulting he decided to explore the world of monitoring and system management/automation. Since april 2017 he has been working as part of the professional service team of NETWAYS Gmbh. His topics a senior consultant are elastic, icinga2 and bareos. If he is not traveling through the world helping other people, he loves to do some beekeeping and gardening stuff.
