Hi There, I am wondering there is no well documented way to remove a client. I have found some information on the internet, but not sure if they are safe to use. What I've done:
We have a directory that contains a file for each client, including the "Job", "FileSet", "Client", "Storage" and "Pool" definitions. Also we have a directory that contains a file each for each device, including the "Device" definition. I removed both files for a given client and restarted bacula-dir and bacula-sd. Then I deleted the pools in the bconsole. I found a hint that I should manually delete the client in the table named "Client" in the database. I did and ran a dbcheck, but there were still a lot of entries in the database regarding to the removed client (in the tables "Storage", "Pool" and so on). So I removed them to and ran dbcheck again. Finally I deleted the directory where the archives were saved. Why is there no built-in function in the bconsole which easily and safe removes a client? Is there a better way to perform such a task?
