Could you explain, please,how to dump and import the database?If you have existing .bsr files, it won't hurt a thing to bring them along. For dumping the database, you want to use mysqldump; read the man page on it.Usage example: /opt/mysql/bin/mysqldump -f --opt --password=YOURPASS bacula | gzip -9 - > /opt/mysql/var/bacula.sql.gz (all on one line) To recreate the database on the new machine, the simplest way to reload it is: zcat bacula.sql.gz | mysql |
