Yes, I did use this approach from your previous post. It worked fine; many thanks. My post was really asking the Bareos gurus to weigh in on whether there is an approach similar to the one documented in Chapter 31.1.2, but which is not compatible with 16.2 as the configuration structure changed. The implication was that the db_name can be specified in a .conf file somewhere, but maybe this is simply not the case and the only way is your way :).
