Hi Neil,

Yes, as Phil said, something is generating the bacula.sql. Maybe a catalog
backup job, where you have the make_catalog_backup script configured or
something else. I can´t see a "log.sql". Instead I see a "log" file. This
is the log file generated by Bacula according to your Messages resource
configuration (specifically in this line: append = "/var/spool/bacula/log"
= all, !skipped). You can delete this file if you do not need the log from
your previous installation. But if you keep this configuration, Bacula will
continue to append to this file as it is configured in your Messages
resource.

Best regards,
Ana
