16.2.4 is ancient. Can you please check (maybe on a dedicated test-system with a copy of your catalog database) whether the problem still exists with the latest nightly build from https://download.bareos.org/experimental/nightly/ Thank you! |

Dear arogge, Bareos updating process from 16.2.4 to 18.2 according the following steps, does not work: When updating to a Bareos version containing the Subdirectories Configuration, the existing configuration will not be touched and is still the default configuration. { Please note! Problems can occur if you have implemented an own wildcard mechanism to load your configuration from the same subdirectories as used by the new packages ($CONFIGDIR/ $COMPONENT. d/ */ *. conf ). In this case, newly installed configuration resource files can alter your current configuration by adding resources. Best create a copy of your configuration directory before updating Bareos and modify your existing configuration file to use that other directory. As long as the old configuration file ($CONFIGDIR/$COMPONENT.conf) exists, it will be used. The correct way of migrating to the new configuration scheme would be to split the configuration file into resources, store them in the resource directories and then remove the original configuration file. { For migrating the Bareos Director configuration, the script bareos-migrate-config.sh exists. Being called, it connects via bconsole to a running Bareos Director and creates subdirectories with the resource configuration files. # prepare temporary directory mkdir /tmp/baroes-dir.d cd /tmp/baroes-dir.d # download migration script wget . ,! https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bareos/bareos-contrib/master/misc/bareos-migrate-config/bareos-migrate- # execute the script bash bareos-migrate-config.sh # backup old configuration mv /etc/bareos/bareos-dir.conf /etc/bareos/bareos-dir.conf.bak mv /etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d /etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d.bak # make sure, that all packaged configuration resources exists, # otherwise they will be added when updating Bareos. for i in ‘find /etc/bareos/bareos-dir.d.bak/ -name *.conf -type f -printf "%P\n"‘; do touch . ,! "$i"; done # install newly generated configuration cp -a /tmp/bareos-dir.d /etc/bareos/ Commands 8.1: bareos-migrate-config.sh Restart the Bareos Director and verify your configuration. Also make sure, that all resource configuration files coming from Bareos packages exists, in doubt as empty files, see remove configuration resource files. { Another way, without splitting the configuration into resource files is: * mkdir $CONFIGDIR/$COMPONENT.d/migrate && mv $CONFIGDIR/$COMPONENT.conf . ,! $CONFIGDIR/$COMPONENT.d/migrate Commands 8.2: move configuration to subdirectory * Resources defined in both, the new configuration directory scheme and the old configuration file, must be removed from one of the places, best from the old configuration file, after verifying that the settings are identical with the new settings Also the url: https://download.bareos.org/experimental/nightly/ does not work. And how about updating 18.2 to higher future versions, what is the command to doe so? |

What is it that "does not work"? And yes, there is a "/bareos" missing in the URL. Sorry for that. |

you can close this, I will figure it out on my own. It's too complicated to tell where the problem maybe lies, because we have only one production server and no fallout server. But it hangs when I ran the migration script. So I had to rollback to a previous snapshot to get de production server up and running. Logs files give not concrete cause of the issue. But thanks for your time. |

Are you sure it hang? The database-migration from 16 to 17 takes really a lot of time (and space). |
|
|
does the upgrade/update script also downloading a new version of Bareos directly from the internet? If that's the case, then it is not possible to upgrade because firewall restrictions. |
|
|
the database migration script just does the database migration. |
|
|
So in other words: There will be no new versions downloaded from the bareos.org server? only db migration? And when wil bereos 19 availible? and will there be a guide to upgrade from 18.2.5 to 19? But in any case, thanks for your time and afford. With kind regards from, Ben van den Bos. |

Hi Arogge, Are you still here? When will bereos 19 availible? Olso I have an other problem with auto recycle? How do I restart auto recycle and where can I find logs containing bareos auto recycle error? |
|
|
Bareos 19 will be available when it is done. Maybe later this year. There is nothing to restart with autorecycling. It just happens when it is enabled and a job needs a new volume. Logging for autorecycling is then in that job's log. |

Oké thanks You can close this ticket. with kind regards from, Ben |
