Well, you could do it that way, but it's a bit like taking your car
apart to get your groceries out of the trunk.

This is particularly a poor method since Bacula already provides tools
for the job.

$ .../bacula/etc/bacula stop
$ .../bacula/etc/drop-mysql-tables
$ .../bacula/etc/make-mysql-tables
$ .../bacula/etc/bacula start

Done.
