Good day all. There is a feature that comes pretty close to what you want.
Its called "Volume Use Duration" and it defines for how long a tape can be used. I usually have a setting of "1 day" or "2 days". The tapes wont be marked "used" right after that time but when Bacula will search for the next available tape. So dont worry, that setting is working ;) Greetings, Michael On Mon, 5 Dec 2005 - 2:28pm, MaxxAtWork wrote: >Hello, > >I apologize if it's a stupid question, I didn't yet experience much >with Bacula syntax. >My wish is that after Bacula terminates a full backup, the volume >currently mounted >would be marked as used, so that next weekly full would start from a >different tape. >I thought that perhaps I could use a RunAfterJob="/path/to/markused.sh" >where markused.sh is: > >#!/bin/sh >/etc/bacula/bconsole -c /etc/bacula/bacula.conf <<EndOfCmd >update volume=%v volstatus=Used >EndOfCmd > >Would such script work?
