Re: [Bacula-users] Problem labeling tapes dir and sd on different machines

Hello,

First, I don't think you really want to do the add command, unless you are going to manually label all those volumes.

Normally, if I remember correctly, when automatic labeling works, Bacula will not only create a new volume, but it will label it, and put the entry in the catalog. You should confirm this.

One thing you are definitely doing incorrectly is giving volumes in two pools the same prefix. Bacula cannot have the same volume in two pools. So you need to have different prefixes (other than just "Vol-") for each pool. One suggestion would be to use the MediaType as the prefix. That way, you would also know by the Volume name, what pool it belongs to.

It is not clear why you have two pools, because the Volumes are all mixed in the same physical directory. There is no problem with that, but what is the purpose of two pools ?

An "llist Volumes" may give you a better idea of what is going on.

Best regards,

Kern

Hi.

When i use SD with Disk (SD, USB, NAS, SAN, etc).

I add volumen with the command:   add

And i add for example   50 volumen.

Because (i view) the command label only add 1 volumen.

i use Label only when my SD is a Tape Library.

Note: you have 2 Autochanger: FileChgr2 and FileChgr2

You must add volumen you should on the 2 Autochanger.

Sorry for my English.

Hi all,

my current setup is director on a vm and sd is running on a qnap nas. Everything went fine runing all daemons on a single virtual machine writing to an nfs mount of the qnap.

To improve performance in particualr for the bigger jobs we installed bacula directly on qnap to have the sd running there. Now we got the follwing problem.

Autolabeling doesn't work anymore. After starting a job I got the following message:

Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
    Storage:      "FileChgr1-Dev2" (/opt/bacula/tapes)
    Pool:         File
    Media type:   File1

That message never apperead on the single machine setup. The labels were properly autolabeled.
Nevertheless I tried to label a tape.

Do not forget to mount the drive!!!

SD creates the volume properly (as fare as I can see in the fielsystem) but director doesn't recognize it.

Can someone please point me to the right direction how to get it work?

cheers
