So I basically did the following: - change Storage in all Job and Pool configuration files - update all Pools with bconsole update pool - change Storage of all volumes in Bareos database (Catalog) with a one liner for-loop using "bconsole list volumes" and "bconsole update volume=$volume Storage=$newbackupserver"
