Moving the clients is easy. Moving the historical data is hard. As others have said, you must do it manually. You would have to start out by changing the numeric IDs of every Job, every Volume, every Pool, every Client, every Fileset, every Schedule, every type of resource, in the catalog of the Director(s) you are planning to shut down to values not used by the one you're trying to keep, and you need to do it CONSISTENTLY, making sure every single record in the database refers to every other record it should by the correct *NEW* row IDs. Then you need to import that data into the Catalog you're keeping without overwriting any data you already have. None of this is anything you should be attempting unless you have strong SQL database skills and understand how the Bacula catalog tables relate to each other. And of course, in all cases you should back up all of your catalog databases first. By comparison, you will probably find it a lot simpler to just add your Clients and their Filesets and Schedules to the Director you're keeping and restart it, then keep the other Directors around as backups in case you need them for restores until their historical data becomes outdated. -- Phil Stracchino Babylon Communications ph...@caerllewys.net p...@co.ordinate.org Landline: +1.603.293.8485 Mobile: +1.603.998.6958 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
