Hi,
I have installed bacula and i'm trying to backup on DLTv4 medium. I have 10
media and I want to have even and odd weeks and I also want to be able to
backup on the same medium each day if I forgot to change medium...
I have defined the following pool:
Pool {
Name = mediaset_backup
Pool Type = Backup
Use Volume Once = yes
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
# Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Volume Retention = 30 seconds
Label Format = "backup.bacula."
}
Here is the volume list:
Pool: mediaset_backup

Here are my questions:
- why does bacula have recycled volume 5 and not volume 4?
- I have put the volume 9 in my drive. Bacula can't backup and says that
volume 9 is "Used" and not "Recycle" and that I must insert volume 5 and
mount it. When i look at director status, it says "waiting for a mount
request". Why? I think it should use the volume 9 because of my retention
period of 30 seconds but it does not...
Do you have any idea?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Best regards
Ludovic
