I backup to a NAS drive which has failed this morning.
I can replace the drive and rerun the jobs with the existing resource defs but wonder how I should I reset the catalog since all those volumes are now lost but are still in the database.

One option is perhaps to delete all the volumes using Baculum. Would that work, is there a better way ?

I think somewhere in the directory tree there's a script "drop_bacula_tables", and probably also "create_bacula_tables".

I haven't used them for more than a decade, but I think manual mentions them (in addition to classic tarball install) in some beginners guide, so you could drop all the traces of initial error-and-trial experiments before switching to "production use".


Of course, you'd better to consider first if there might ever be any conflict caused by the same job numbers etc. again. For example, if you have an archieve of old bootstrap files, you'd better to get rid of those files too at the same time so they won't confuse you in the future.
