Summary0000024: Automatic sending of BSR (at least of the Catalog DB) vie email
DescriptionThe BSR (Bootstrap Record) is the essential information to restore data without needing the Catalog Database. With the BSR, the data can directly be extracted from the volumes without having to scan all the data of the volume.

Right now, the BSR of each job is automatically written to a file. When the Backup Server itself crashes, usually this information is not available.

As a further enhancement, the configuration files should also be sent to another machine. As they contain passwords, this may also be a security problem and thus more complicated to find a good solution.

Suggestion:

make the bsr-postproccessing configurable like this:

..
bsr-postprocess-cmd = "mailx -s bsr admin@mysite.org"
...

where the bsr gets piped to the given command. If someone wants to encrypt the mail or use sftp or whatever transfer method, he can freely configure whatever he wants.

Details Diff		 Send the catalog backup bootstrap file by mail

Having the bootstrap of the backupcatalog job is crucial
for disaster recovery.
Unfortunately, the default config didn't do that until now.

Now we automatically mail the bootstrap file of the backupcatalog job.

Also, we have now extended the BackupCatalog FileSet to include the
sysconfdir.
