I am getting ready to deploy my first bacula server to our production environment. I would like to practice 2 scenarios of recovery. First, I will recover the configuration files and mysql database (from dump files), and hopefully continue
on. The second, I will recover only the configuration files. Both scenarios, will tear down the server and rebuild new OS and reattach the LUN where the volume pools are stored.
The first seems pretty straight forward, especially is the mysqldump is current after the most recent backups that ran. The 2nd, poses the question of how to import existing volume pool data into a new bacula director installation?
Any advice or acedotes from when this has been previously performed would be appreciated.
Thanks,
jonathan
