Bacula's easy: given your install location, just stop bacula, then: # cp -a /root/bacula /root/bacula-1.36.3 For the database, you want to use mysqldump to dump a backup copy, then upgrade it by running the provided database upgrade script, which will be saved in /root/bacula/etc as update_mysql_tables_v8_to_v9 after you 'make install'. You're going to want something similar to this to dump your database: /[path]/mysqldump -f --opt --password=XXXXX bacula | gzip -9 - > /[path]/bacula.sql.gz You should already have something similar in your /root/bacula/etc/make_catalog_backup script (but the default script dumps ALL databases, which for this purpose you probably don't want). -- Phil Stracchino [EMAIL PROTECTED] Renaissance Man, Unix generalist, Perl hacker Mobile: 603-216-7037 Landline: 603-886-3518 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
