Normally the bacula.sql file is removed each night after the catalog database
job
bacula.sql is the pure sql dump file which is pushed in the job catalog
database.
after that the bacula.sql should/can be remove
here's a typicall catalog job that should be true for a 2.2.7 version
# Backup the catalog database (after the nightly save)
Job {
Name = "BackupCatalog"
JobDefs = "DefBackupJob"
Level = Full
Client = "yoda-fd"
FileSet="FileSet_Catalog"
Pool = "Pool_Catalog"
Storage = "Store_FSSQL"
Schedule = "Schedule_QuotidienCatalog"
# This creates an ASCII copy of the catalog
RunBeforeJob = "/usr/lib/bacula/make_catalog_backup bacula bacula bacula"
# This deletes the copy of the catalog --> SEE THAT
RunAfterJob = "/usr/lib/bacula/delete_catalog_backup"
Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/BackupCatalog.bsr"
Priority = 20 # run after
main backup
}
It seem you miss the RunAfterJob ...
