Trying to manually run a one-off full backup for a single client also gets stuck at "job is waiting on Storage".

Hi all,

Bacula 9.6.7 on Debian 11.

There has been some mess up around Xmas time:

1. On 27 Dec some scheduled jobs exceeded max run time (18 hrs) and got cancelled.

2. On the same day, the tape drive was used for a "one off" job, which took 3 days and run out of (temporarily extended) 72 hrs max run time. No other auto-scheduled jobs could run during that period.

3. We run full weekly backups on Wednesdays and incremental on other week days. In order to avoid hitting 25 Dec and 1 Jan I temporarily changed this schedule to Tuesdays. I made a mistake leaving catalog schedule and weekly schedule jobs at Wednesdays, my bad.

Now I've changed full schedules back to normal (Wednesdays).
I'm in a situation where all scheduled jobs refuse to run with:

"...is waiting on Storage"
"Intervention needed for...""
"Job xxx waiting to reserve a device."

When I check the schedule:
bconsole -> status allIt all looks good - a full set of full backups is lined up.

The tape currently inserted is the next in line and is mounted.
I've "purged" it and it changed status to "recycle".
Surprisingly, when I run a free space check on it, it reports as half full. I've manually changed the status to "append" which has made no difference.

Can somebody advise how to get back on track?

Regards and Happy New Year!
Adam
