I am trying to start over with my backup process. I think I screwed up the Volume naming or something. When I set things up I had set the label Format to Volume_. Things ran smoothly but then Bacula started marking tapes as full when they weren't and started loading new tapes. It got to the last tape and then asked for me to load new tapes since the retention time wasn't exceeded for the other tapes in the changer. I looked an I had it set at 365 days when it should have been 30 days. So I did a purge and delete thinking that would clear the Catalog and database so I could continue on. That didn't work since it now is asking for Volume_0001 which doesn't exist since when I did a delete I remember deleting that volume from the Catalog. All of the tapes in the changer have been labeled using the btape command of using the barcodes. Can anyone shed some light on this as to how I can just tell bacula to start from scratch. Should I just do an SQl and clear out the table manually? I have searched the lists and docs and haven't found anything yet.
In bconsole I did a status of the Director and I get this: Scheduled Jobs: Level Type Pri Scheduled Name Volume =================================================================================== Differential Backup 10 09-Jun-06 13:05 Client2 Volume_0001 Full Backup 11 09-Jun-06 23:10 BackupCatalog Volume_0001 ==== The Volume named Volume_0001 was deleted.
