I'm still wrestling with my problem of Bacula requesting a different volume although the one already loaded is eligible to be recycled. [1] As I cannot find a solution to the root problem I am now thinking about workarounds. One idea I'm currently pursuing is to preventively prune every volume after mounting it.
What I'd need for that is a way to issue from a script a prune command for the volume which is currently loaded in a specific standalone tape drive. Unfortunately the "prune" command of bconsole requires the volume name to be specified. Any ideas how to specify "currently mounted volume" there? Note that the AutoPrune configuration directive does not help, because it doesn't work in the presence of appendable but inaccessible volumes in the pool. Thanks in advance, Tilman [1] For details, see my postings: Date: Fri, 16 May 2008 12:20:59 +0200 Subject: Repost: mounted tape not accepted if another one has already been recycled Date: Fri, 08 Aug 2008 18:26:51 +0200 Subject: Prune command does nothing unless the pool is requested? -- Tilman Schmidt Phoenix Software GmbH Bonn, Germany ------------------------------------------------------------------------
