Hello, iam installed new fresh installation PMG 8.0, and restore the backup from old 6.0 version.
Then iam copy the spam folders and content (/var/spool/pmg/spam) with SCP to new server...

The spam quarantine emails database does not appear, ---Administration --->>spam quarantine
It is still empty.
I have copied all the folders and subfolders ((/var/spool/pmg/spam) from the previous system, is there a command to recreate the quarantine database?

No - the quarantine is not part of the backup/restore - as the mails stored there are transitory - and it usually does not make sense to keep them around.
How long is your Quarantine life-time - why do you want to migrate the quarantine?
 
Hello, thank you very much for responding.
The truth is that I wanted to keep it for internal registration and for Bayesian filter self-learning. and I wanted to use those messages so that the new system learns from the old system's spam messages.

my old system quarantine database is 1 year...

so this is not necessary to keep for spam self-learning?
