Hey guys,

I'm about to switch our backup system to a new server + tape drive and I want 
to know if there is any (catalog) trouble to be expected if I replace the 
current Storage definition in pool and job configuration files with a new one.

Further explanation:
- the old backup server (Windows 2008) has mounted a virtual drive from our SAN 
where all volumes are stored
- the Bareos Storage Daemon FileStorage device points to this drive and uses it 
for backup and restore jobs
- the new backup server (Windows 2019) will have this exact drive mounted the 
exact same way
- so the only things that will actually change are:
-- Storage IP address
-- Storage name (e.g. "backup2008" -> "backup2019")
-- transport encryption TLS might be enabled for the new Storage Daemon

Do I have to update the catalog in any way so that Bareos knows where to find 
all pre-existent volumes after the switch?
Do I risk anything like triggering a full backup for all pools/jobs because of 
the change?

Thanks in advance

Regards
Jens
