Backup Central

I have found a few things on the net about this issue, but nothing really verified and I am afraid of losing my days of configuring to get everything just right.

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and installed Bacula via the apt-get command. I have a raid array that is mounted that works as the VTapes and I backup across multiple domains.

I would like my jobs and volumes to start over without losing clients, volume pools, storage directors, etc… So Job 1 and Volume0001.

Is this all I have to do?:
apt-get remove bacula-director-mysql
apt-get install bacula-director-mysql

Or are there other steps? Do I manually delete the Volumes or will those get removed if the db is reset? If someone can give me a simple step by step, it would be awesome!

Thanks!

Although I do not use ubuntu, I am pretty sure those steps will only
reinstall the binaries for bacula. This should not recreate the bacula
database, change your config or remove any of the data you have
already in your backups.
