Assuming you're going to be using the same backup devices, you will want
to perform a clean install on the new machine, copy the bacula-dir.conf
and bacula-sd.conf from the old machine to the new, then dump the Bacula
catalog database from the old machine using mysqldump and import it to
the new machine. Then you'll need to update the Director address in all
the config files to reflect the new server. If you're backing up to
disk, you should copy all the volumes from the old machine to the new as
well.
That, in general, should cover it. There may be other tweaks necessary
depending on your exact setup.
