OK I am surrendering ;-) this is what is happening to me. I have 6 tapes
and need to back up 8 clients and 1 backupcatalog. I am doing a full
backup on Friday's on 7 clients and diffs the rest of the week
(excluding Sunday). The 8th client I am doing a full on Tuesday's and
nothing else during the rest of the week (if someone needs to know why I
can tell you). So what is happening now is that when a tape fills up it
should automatically mount the next tape. This has not been the case I
have been manually having to do this all along. Now what I did was
labeled the tapes before I began backing this network up. So now what I
am running into is all the tapes are filled and I want to purge them. I
have tinkered with the conf and have had no success to have this done
automatically. So what I have been doing is manually purging the tapes (
I am well aware of what this does and am ok with it, unless it is what
is causing my problem which I will describe in a minute) then mounting
them and going on with the backup. Well last week I ran into an issue of
which I did post here where I was being told xxxxx volume doesnt not
exsist when I would try to mount it. So what I ended up doing is
deleting that from my database writing and eof and relabelling it with
the same name it has prior to me deleting from db. In bconsole I would
type list media and I would see all the volumes there (I did this when I
was being told it couldnt find the volume when I tried to mount it) Can
anyone help me with this or should I just start over from scratch? Even
if I start over from scratch I will still need to prune purge these
volumes. Thanks in advance. Oh I included by bacula-dir.conf file.
