I'm using an autochanger and a scratch pool for new volumes. Each month I remove from the autochanger all the tapes from one backup job that uses the "CADArchive" pool. They are stored off-site. Right now the backup spans two disks with the 2nd one about 1/2 full.
When a job runs that needs a tape from the "CADArchive" pool, will Bacula: 1. Detect that there are no CADArchive volumes in the autochanger, relabel one from the Scratch pool and run the job using that relabeled tape. 2. Notice that there is an appendable volume from the CADArchive pool, ask for it and wait until it's loaded or the maxwait time is reached. #1 is how I think it will behave, and how I want it to behave. If #2 is the behavior I should expect, what do I do to "close" the appendable volume so Bacula will use a new tape from the Scratch pool? --Tim (This message is also serving to test my ability to send to the list.
