I'd like to migrate one of my servers from PostgreSQL to MySQL. My plan was to use pg_dump to create a file with just insert commands, recreate tables in MySQL and then run commands from dump file to populate them. Reinstall director (with MySQL backend). Is this going to fly?

As the author of the Bacula PostgreSQL module, I'm curious as to why you would go in that direction. Most people tend to move to PostgreSQL from MySQL.

Is there something missing you need?

The reasons are completely political in nature. There's nothing wrong with PostgreSQL and Bacula's PostgreSQL module. It's just that I got surrounded by too many MySQL junkies. Personally, I prefer PostgreSQL.

The databases are all pretty similar. Bacula doesn't do anything particular to any one database, pretty much.

OK, then I guess simply moving the tables around should work.  Thanks.
