> Hello,
Hello Timo > I'm currently running Bacula 7.0.5 on CentOS 7 system. Bacula is installed > from epel-bacula repo: > https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/slaanesh/bacula7/epel-7/x86_64/ > Database used is mariadb, mysql-compatible. > > Now I'm planning to upgrade to 9.2.2 provided by Bacula Community, but still > stay with mysql/mariadb. > > Since the old and new versions use significantly different packaging options > and file locations, I obviously need to un-install the old version, and then > make a "fresh" 9.2.2 install (skipping the database creation steps) > > > I couln't find information if the same catalog database format is used in > 7.0.5 and 9.2.2, or if I'll need to upgrade the catalog? The Catalog version is different. > Since this technically won't be an rpm-upgrade but a fresh install, the > catalog obviously needs to be updated manually (if necessary at all) > > If a catalog upgrade is needed, will it be a simple run of some script, or > does it possibly need several more complicated steps (if there is a big > enough difference in catalog version numbers)? Just run the following script after the new version install [1]: /opt/bacula/scripts/update_bacula_tables [1] http://bacula.us/bacula-centos-rhel-enterprise-and-bacula-org-packages-update-via-yum/ > Thanks, > Timo Regards, -- MSc Heitor Faria CEO Bacula LATAM mobile1: + 1 909 655-8971 mobile2: + 55 61 98268-4220 Brasilia - Miami - New York www.bacula.com.br _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
