Martin, That's simple enough, what is the correct way to remove extraneous clients and jobs etc out of the db? Thanks for the idea. jlc -- AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on Lean Startup Secrets Revealed.

After that, you can delete orphaned clients with Bacula's dbcheck utility. __Martin -- AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on Lean Startup Secrets Revealed.

Got it, a quick test shows this to be more trivial than I expected.

If you are abandoning the old Dir, you can make the new Dir use the existing Catalog Yes, they will both remain active. * If you are keeping the old Dir, will you be using anything from the Catalog on that Dir? Yes, that director has one catalogue db for all its sd's.
