Hi Otto,

thank is all documented at https://docs.bareos.org/Configuration/CustomizingTheConfiguration.html#subdirectory-configuration-scheme including a migration script, that helps you to split your existing configuration into separate files. The "new" config scheme has been introduced 9 years ago, so your 10 year old configuration might be one of the last using the old scheme ;-)

Regards,
Jörg

Hi Otto,

if you have a config file `<path>/bareos-dir.conf`, then you can simply create the directory `<path>/bareos-dir.d/legacy` and move that file in there. If the configure still doesnt work, then you also need to create the directory `bareos-dir.d/client`.  For a full list of directories that you should create you can look into the default config that gets shipped with the bareos director.

Kind Regards
Sebastian Sura

Hi,

my next challenge :-)
I have been using bareos on my servers for about 10 years or so and it seems that its time for a cleanup. I tried to add a new client using bconsole, but I am getting the following:

It seems that the configuration is not adapted to the include directory structure. This means, that the configure command may not work as expected. Your configuration changes may not survive a reload/ restart. failed to write config resource file

I tried to ask the internet, but could not find a suitable answer on how to change config.
I am still using the obviously old flat config-files.
Could anyone please point me in a direction where to find more information on how to switch to include directory structure? I think I missed something as I did not read release-notes :-(
Best regards and thanks in advance,
Otto
