I moved from using the downloaded Community Bacula to the Ubuntu
packaged version, both 13.0.4. The difference is the downloaded uses
/opt/bacula/etc while the packaged conf files are in /etc/bacula. The
mysql database was not changed.
After the switch client Full's worked, but incrementals and
differentials which use Accurate Mode failed because bacula-fd gets
"Fatal error: Cannot find previous jobids." Without accurate mode they
succeed.
The conf files I'm using in /etc/bacula are just copies of the ones from
/opt where I have adjusted the path references. I did not copy the files
where /opt pointed, just adjusted the paths in the conf files. That
presumably is my mistake.
So now I'm a week in using the packaged Bacula, most with Accurate
turned off so that the incremental succeed. I noticed from mysql that
Bacula created new FileSetId's for FULL (one for catalog, one for client
backups).
So how do I recover from this? I'm not sure which files I should have
copied.
For working the opt version uses /opt/bacula/working, the packaged uses
/var/lib/bacula. The ones in the former are
bacula-sd.9103.state
bacula-fd.9102.state
bacula-dir.9101.state
BackupCatalog.bsr
orac-fd.bsr
The state files are close to the switch, the bsr's a few days earlier.
I'm not aware of other path changes, but could have missed something.
Are there any other files I missed? I just assumed it was all in the
mysql tables.
I would like to go back to using Accurate, so how do I recover? I'd like
to use the existing backups, old and new (the volumes are all files, no
devices), but it wouldn't be a tragedy to lose the old (there was also a
move from Ubuntu 23.10 to 24.04, so many older files are not relevant)
Any help?
