Hi, well its happened, I did ask about this on this list a while back and
thought it was sorted. I only have 10 tapes in my pool. I set up a daily
incremental, and identified the pool to have 10 in. It worked fine and each
time a change was needed I labelled them on the fly, like 002, 003 etc. Its
just finished tape 010 and is asking me to mount a new one, the message is the
same as the others i.e. please use "label" to create a new one, and NOT "please
mount volume 001". I did mount tape 001 anyway, but it refused to continue the
backup and is still asking for a new one. The pool is defined like this:
Pool {
Name = P01
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Volume Retention = 14 days
Maximum Volumes = 10
}
and the volumes have been used like this:
