I just updated from Bacula 9.2.1 to 9.4.1, and suddenly I have a problem.

Actually I had a series of problems, which started out with the Solaris
11.3 disk FD failing because, by the looks of it, I accidentally built
it 32-bit and last night's backups overflowed EndBlock.  So I rebuilt
64-bit, and found that the installed MySQL libraries installed on
Solaris were only 32-bit, which apparently is why I'd managed only a
32-bit build.  Don't ask me why the 32-bit 9.2.1 SD was working but a
32-bit 9.4.1 SD overflows, because I have no idea.

So I removed the near-useless Oracle-Solaris-11.3-provided 32-bit-only
MySQL package, and replaced it with an
Oracle-MySQL-for-Solaris-11.3-provided MySQL package which actually is
64-bit, and was able to rebuild a proper 64-bit Bacula-9.4.1 fd and sd.

asgard:root:/netstore/src/bacula-9.4.1:39 # file /opt/bacula/sbin/bacula-*
/opt/bacula/sbin/bacula-dir:    ELF 64-bit LSB executable AMD64 Version
1 [SSE2 SSE], dynamically linked, not stripped
/opt/bacula/sbin/bacula-fd:     ELF 64-bit LSB executable AMD64 Version
1 [SSE2 SSE], dynamically linked, not stripped
/opt/bacula/sbin/bacula-sd:     ELF 64-bit LSB executable AMD64 Version
1 [SSE2 SSE], dynamically linked, not stripped

========================

I note here that I configured with --disable-build-dird, and configure
shows it disabled:

   bat support:              no
   client-only:              no
   build-dird:               no
   build-stored:             yes

But the build ignored that and build the Director *anyway*.

These options have always been a bit balky.  I think it would probably
be easier to get it to build what you want if
--[enable|disable]-client-only went away and there was a consistent set
of --enable-build-client, --enable-build-dird, --enable-build-stored,
defaulting to 'yes', 'no', 'no'.

========================

Restarted the new SD and FD, restarted the Director out of constructive
paranoia, ran a new test set of differential backups, and now I have a
NEW problem:

Device File: "FileStorage" (/spool/bacula) is not open.
   Device is BLOCKED waiting to create a volume for:
       Pool:        Diff-Disk
       Media type:  File
   Available Space=7.051 TB

I'm baffled as to why creating a new volume would suddenly be blocked.
It's always worked before and I have made no configuration changes.

Any suggestions?  I have absolutely no idea why it is blocking.
