If you have existing .bsr files, it won't hurt a thing to bring them along. For dumping the database, you want to use mysqldump; read the man page on it. Usage example: /opt/mysql/bin/mysqldump -f --opt --password=YOURPASS bacula | gzip -9 - > /opt/mysql/var/bacula.sql.gz (all on one line) To recreate the database on the new machine, the simplest way to reload it is: zcat bacula.sql.gz | mysql -- Phil Stracchino [EMAIL PROTECTED] Renaissance Man, Unix generalist, Perl hacker Mobile: 603-216-7037 Landline: 603-886-3518 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
