Hi ! I'm unable to label my DVD. (bacula 1.38.5) Here is what I do : homer bacula # bconsole Connecting to Director homer:9101 1000 OK: homer-dir Version: 1.38.5 (18 January 2006) Enter a period to cancel a command. *label Using default Catalog name=MyCatalog DB=bacula The defined Storage resources are: 1: File 2: DVD Select Storage resource (1-2): 2 Enter new Volume name: DVD-FULL-0001 Automatically selected Pool: Default Connecting to Storage daemon DVD at homer:9103 ...
