There is more to it than that. You need to stop bacula, dump the mysql database, load it into postgresql, install the postgresql version of bacula-sd and bacula-dir and get that up and running. If your database is large this may take some time. It's not entirely trivial to load a mysql dump into postgresql though. http://mtu.net/~jpschewe/blog/2010/06/migrating-bacula-from-mysql-to-postgresql/ http://workaround.org/node/258 http://www.backupcentral.com/phpBB2/two-way-mirrors-of-external-mailing-lists-3/bacula-25/process-to-convert-mysql-to-postgres-85413/ Gavin -- Gavin McCullagh Senior System Administrator IT Services Griffith College South Circular Road Dublin 8 Ireland Tel: +353 1 4163365 http://www.gcd.ie http://www.gcd.ie/brochure.pdf http://www.gcd.ie/opendays http://www.gcd.ie/ebrochure This E-mail is from Griffith College.
