If you modified a MediaId in the Media table and you don't understand the full details of how the database is organized and linked together (e.g. where to find *all* references to the MediaId), you have probably damaged your database. While certain fields can be modified directly via SQL, MediaIds are not one. For the record, I discourage all users from doing similar things, and I can assure you, it is not something that I would personally do. To the best of my knowledge the only place Bacula ever asks for a MediaId is when it asks you to select a particular Volume during the update command (and possibly some other ones). If you decide to respond to this with a bit more concrete information, please read the Support page on the bacula web site (www.bacula.org -> Support) first. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
