Hi Ana, Thank you very much for your reply.
I've dropped the entire Bacula mysql database and re-created it and my Bacula seems to be working and it's free'd up about 10GB's of space now, however I do still have a very large /var/spool/bacula/bacula.sql (12GB) and log.sql (2GB) any ideas how I prune or re-create these? Thank you very much for your assistance. Greatly appreciated. Regards. Neil Wilson. On Wed, Jun 10, 2015 at 7:02 PM, Ana Emília M.
