Previously it was intended to be used primarily by Bacula developers for
testing; although SQLite is also a good choice for this. We do not recommend
-its use in general.
+its use in general.
This database is simplistic in that it consists entirely of Bacula's internal
structures appended sequentially to a file. Consequently, it is in most cases
inappropriate for sites with many clients or systems with large numbers of
-files, or long-term production environments.
+files, or long-term production environments.
Below, you will find a table comparing the features available with SQLite and
MySQL and with the internal Bacula database. At the current time, you cannot
dynamically switch from one to the other, but must rebuild the Bacula source
code. If you wish to experiment with both, it is possible to build both
-versions of Bacula and install them into separate directories.
