Hi, Thanks all for the replies. My requirement is to move to a centos 7 OS with mysql as DB (current is 6). Here is what I’ve found from the instructions provided by everyone (and for the benefit of someone in the future in my situation): Firstly, build a new centos 7 machine and do the following 1. Download 7.0.5 code. From http://sourceforge.net/projects/bacula/files/bacula/7.0.5/bacula-7.0.5.tar.gz/download - does this include bacula-sd, dir and fd? 2. Extract. 3. Install deps: yum install mysql-devel gcc-c++ readline-devel zlib-devel libacl-devel mtx postfix 4. Configure: ./configure --with-readline=/usr/include/readline --disable-conio --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --with-scriptdir=/usr/libexec/bacula/ --with-working-dir=/var/spool/bacula/ --with-logdir=/var/log --enable-smartalloc --with-mysql 5. Build: make -j8 && make install && make install-autostart 6. Run update db script: ( Not sure about this step, please see step 8) /usr/libexec/bacula/update_bacula_tables 7. Copy over the config files under /etc/bacula/ to the new centos 7 box with bacula 7. Will I need to run step 6 (/usr/libexec/bacula/update_bacula_tables) here? 8. Restart bacula daemons Please assist on the questions I have above, or is there a better way I should be doing this? What about the volumes + files I have on the current server, how can I take these across as well? Regards WaqarK PGP: D1388321 From: Ana Emília M.

I saw the other posts. So you have two options: upgrade to 5.2.13 using yum or remove your actual version and build from source the 7.0.5 version. If you decide to build from source, remember to do a backup of your conf files (they shouldn´t be replaced, but...). You can upgrade from 5.0.0 to 7.0.5, since you are going to upgrade your database from a version 12 to version 14. You can find in the manual: 10.2 Upgrading Bacula 10.6 Building Bacula from Source Regards, Ana On Fri, Mar 27, 2015 at 11:08 AM, Waqar Khan <waq...@ho...> wrote: Hi Ana, The version I am running is 5 exactly: Version: 5.0.0 (26 January 2010) Selecting database version I get VersionID = 12 5.0.0 is in the base repo but I can’t see 5.2.13 in there. What’s the best way to get to 5.2.13 first? Where can I get update_bacula_tables from + documentation :P Regards WaqarK PGP: D1388321 From: Ana Emília M.

Which Bacula´s 5 version do you have? I´ve upgraded from 5.2.13 to 7.0.5 with no problems (host XenServer). I´m affraid version 5.0.X has a prior database version than 5.2.13, so it will be nice to take a look at your actual database version (you can make a select to list contents from Version table). If you have an earlier database version then 14, you will need to do an update_bacula_tables after upgrading software and before starting using Bacula.

Is there any documentation on upgrading to the latest release from this version. Will I have to first upgrade to 7.0 or can I upgrade directly to 7.0.5. I am also upgrading the base OS from Centos 6 to Centos 7. Which problems can I expect? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
