As someone who's had a staff member run "purge all jobs from a client"
rather than "purge a volume" on me, I can assure you catalog backups are
necessary. ;) You'll be fine without one, but if your shop is any larger
than mine was at that time (and it likely is, as I'm backing up 6 times
the machines now myself) you'll be sorry you didn't make one if you lose
your catalog.
As for the file, does the script create it? Is it readable to bacula?

make_catalog_backup (I think, I'm not looking at my system right now,
but the name is similar), a RunBefore script, should be creating a
file on the system to backup by doing some variety of dump, depending
upon your backend. My guess is that A) the script is not running or
B) the script is placing the file in the "wrong" place.

any ideas?

I am trying to get the BackupCatalog working. If I enter
/usr/local/share/bacula/make_catalog_backup bacula bacula from the
shell prompt the file gets written to /var/db/bacula/bacula.sql I've
tried commenting out RunAfterJob so bacula.sql wouldn't get deleted
but I still get the same error message. Or is the whole BackupCatalog
idea unnecessary?
