I think it's a matter of issuing appropriate UPDATE SQL queries against
your catalog database to patch the necessary job records.  You'll
probably need to study the DB schema and peer into the data actually
stored in the catalog.  Of course the relevant bits of director's
configuration will also need to be updated followed by reloading it.

On the other hand, restoration jobs in Bacula allow you to restore any
fileset to arbitrary place on arbitrary client so if you're really
concerned about if you'll be able to restore files backed up from
server1 to server2, the answer is yes and this requires no actions on
your side except installing bacula-fd on server2.
