Here they are.

Pool Type = Backup

}
Job {
Name = "jtgv-gsi"
Client = jtgv-fd
Type = Backup
Pool = TapePoolForSERVERS
Storage = "IBM Ultrium 3"
Messages = Standard

Write Bootstrap = "/var/bacula/jtgv-gsi.bsr"

}
I've made the changes you suggested. Since I'm testing backup to tape on
a test environment (I was already doing backups to disk for a while),
I've canceled the job, deleted the volumes on bacula, initialized
tapes(rewind, weof...) and now I'll do the same tests again: first
without using a recycled tape, and then use a recycled one.
By the way, I've run a job without adding the volumes to the pool. So,
job status is "waiting for an appendable volume". I've added the tapes
to the pool and I think bacula will "wake up" and search again for an
appendable volume (and this time it will find one).
Is there any way to force the job to retry estead of wainting for it to
"wake up" and retry itself ?
Once again, thank you for your help.
