The message will be written to the table named Log and a timestamp field will also be added. This permits Job Reports and other messages to be recorded in the Catalog so that they can be accessed by reporting software. Bacula will prune the Log records associated with a Job when the Job records are pruned. Otherwise, Bacula never uses these records internally, so this destination is only used for special purpose programs (e.g. bweb)." Maybe you want 'append' to log to a file...

Yeah, I think Phil is wrong, you're not talking about same thing. /var/lib/mysql/bacula/Log.MYD / MYI is bacula table, which contains logged output for jobs (any errors etc., the stuff you get with "list joblog" bacula command), and not the MySQL SQL log. See it's contents for yourself with something like: mysql bacula -e 'select * from Log limit 30' It should be purged automatically when the jobs themselves are purged. I do not know what would happen if you decided to purge it manually from SQL (maybe nothing, but...). So if should probably shrink by itself after some time if you reduce your "Job Retention". Or maybe it is so big because some of your jobs had a ton of messages - that should also expire by itself with such jobs. Alternatively, I think you could modify your "catalog" line in "Messages" resources in config files, in order to log less (or even nothing). -- Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
