Hi,
Thanks all for the replies. My requirement is to move to a centos 7 OS with
mysql as DB (current is 6). Here is what I’ve found from the instructions
provided by everyone (and for the benefit of someone in the future in my
situation):
Firstly, build a new centos 7 machine and do the following
1. Download 7.0.5 code. From
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bacula/files/bacula/7.0.5/bacula-7.0.5.tar.gz/download
- does this include bacula-sd, dir and fd?
2. Extract.
3. Install deps:
yum install mysql-devel gcc-c++ readline-devel zlib-devel libacl-devel mtx
postfix
4. Configure:
./configure --with-readline=/usr/include/readline --disable-conio
--bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --with-scriptdir=/usr/libexec/bacula/
--with-working-dir=/var/spool/bacula/ --with-logdir=/var/log
--enable-smartalloc --with-mysql
5. Build:
make -j8 && make install && make install-autostart
6. Run update db script: ( Not sure about this step, please see step 8)
/usr/libexec/bacula/update_bacula_tables
7. Copy over the config files under /etc/bacula/ to the new centos 7 box with
bacula 7. Will I need to run step 6 (/usr/libexec/bacula/update_bacula_tables)
here?
8. Restart bacula daemons
Please assist on the questions I have above, or is there a better way I should
be doing this? What about the volumes + files I have on the current server, how
can I take these across as well?
Regards

Hi Wagar,
Is that clear for you? I saw the other posts. So you have two options: upgrade
to 5.2.13 using yum or remove your actual version and build from source the
7.0.5 version. If you decide to build from source, remember to do a backup of
your conf files (they shouldn´t be replaced, but...). You can upgrade from
5.0.0 to 7.0.5, since you are going to upgrade your database from a version 12
to version 14.
You can find in the manual:
10.2 Upgrading Bacula
10.6 Building Bacula from Source
Regards,
Ana

Hi Ana,
The version I am running is 5 exactly:
Version: 5.0.0 (26 January 2010)
Selecting database version I get VersionID = 12
5.0.0 is in the base repo but I can’t see 5.2.13 in there. What’s the best way
to get to 5.2.13 first? Where can I get update_bacula_tables from +
documentation :P

Hi!
Which Bacula´s 5 version do you have? I´ve upgraded from 5.2.13 to 7.0.5 with
no problems (host XenServer). I´m affraid version 5.0.X has a prior database
version than 5.2.13, so it will be nice to take a look at your actual database
version (you can make a select to list contents from Version table). If you
have an earlier database version then 14, you will need to do an
update_bacula_tables after upgrading software and before starting using Bacula.
Best regards,
Ana

Hi all,
I am currently using version 5 of bacula dir,sd and fd. Is there any
documentation on upgrading to the latest release from this version. Will I have
to first upgrade to 7.0 or can I upgrade directly to 7.0.5. I am also upgrading
the base OS from Centos 6 to Centos 7. Which problems can I expect?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
