Hmm. I've renamed the Bacula database on the MySQL server so I can try and fix what I have in there already. I can't wait for several days downtime on a critical service like this though. I'll try adding the indexes and hopefully that will increase performance. This installation is for about 70 desktops, laptops and servers. Database is about 1.5GB. Thanks very much all who responded.
