Setup backup server

This role configures backup server(s) in the backup-server group to accept backups from remote hosts.

Note that the backup role must have run on each host in the backup group before this role. That role will create a bup_user tuple in the hostvars for for each host consisting of the required username and public key.

Each required user gets a separate home directory in /opt/backups. Their authorized_keys file is configured with the public key to allow the remote host to log in and only run bup.
