It is trivial to convert the tables to InnoDB after creation.  Here's a
simple Unix bash shell one-liner to do it:

for T in $(mysql -BNe 'show tables from bacula'); do echo Converting
table bacula.${T} ; mysql -BNe "alter table bacula.${T} engine=InnoDB" ;
done

Any time you're working with InnoDB or converting tables to InnoDB,
remember that within limits, the more memory you have allocated to the
InnoDB buffer pool, the faster it will go.
