I am running fedora 26 with bacula-7.4.7 and if I upgrade to fedora 27 bacula will be upgraded to 9.0.6. I understand that the database structure is changed so that I need to run an upgrade script to the old database. Is there anything else that needs to be changed? For example to the various .conf files? I am asking because I want to do the upgrade with as few changes as possible. Any refinements and use of new features could then be introduced at a later stage. -- Thanks in advance Erik |

You should not need to make any configuration changes. You will need to run the database update script. -- Phil Stracchino Babylon Communications ph...@ca... ph...@co...

For example to the various .conf files? I upgraded Bacula from 7.4.4 to 9.0.6 recently on my openSUSE 42.3 system with MySQL as the catalog database. I just had to run /usr/lib/bacula/update_mysql_tables -ubacula and everything worked fine. No changes to the config files were necessary. -- Tilman Schmidt E-Mail: ti...@im...

Thank you. I plan to do the upgrade next Saturday and it's good to be prepared for such issue. -- Erik > > > Charles > > > > On 27/01/18 14:23, Erik P.
