Hi,
I have a problem with my daily backup jobs.
I use 2 tapes for mon-thu and set them to 25h retention.
As mentioned in some past posts, I put in an Admin job to recycle
volumes as needed.
But apparently that didn't work.
Today again, I had to mount the volume to release the job.
Could someone help me to find out what I'm doing wrong?
The timeline for the log is:
- 02 Aug, I purged and relabeled the two Daily volumes
- then I ran a backup on Daily2 (end time was 17:14)
- that evening, Daily1 ran as scheduled at 22:00
- 03 Aug, 21:50 - Admin Job (scheduled)
- 03 Aug, 22:00 - Backup could not find appendable volumes
- 03 Aug, 23:00 - Volume Daily2 recycled
job waited all night for me to mount volume. As soon as I did, job ran fine.
I have a snippet from bacula-dir.conf, a 'list volumes' before the mount
this morning and a current log file attached.
Regards
TT
