I recently updated bacula from 1.38.11 (in service for ~3.5 years) to 5.02.
This was done by:
dumping the bacula data base on the old server (name: parthenon, bacula
client name: parthenon-fd)
copying the MySQL dump to the new server (name: sbia-infr-vbacula)
loading the database dump into mysql
running:
/opt/bacula/scripts/updatedb/update_mysql_tables_9_to_10
/opt/bacula/scripts/updatedb/update_mysql_tables_10_to_11
/opt/bacula/scripts/update_mysql_tables
(overall successful and easy...if time and disk-space consuming...the
process took ~16hrs and the
10GB dumpfile produced a ~20GB database on the initial load, which grew
to ~30GB after the updates)
After some fixes to the config files to update the options to bacula 5.02,
bacula is running well now.
However, the warnings from the director reference the bacula client name of the
old server. For example, here's output from a successful backup, including
warnings about directories that were skipped by the FileSet excludes. Note that
that bacula server is now "sbia-infr-vbacula", and that the only reference to
"parthenon-fd" (the former server) is in bacula-dir in a Client definition:

-------------------
I assume that the reference to parthenon-fd is coming from information in the
database, and that this is just cosmetic. Perhaps the updatedb script needs a
minor fix.
Thanks,
Mark
