>From time to time Bacula still puzzled me.
In a library i've initially setup a pool with 4 couple of tapes; after some
time, we have revised the backup strategy and keeped a pool with 4 single
tapes that we exchange weekly (one tape in the library at a time), and another
pool with two tapes for 'one shot' backups.
I've moved two tapes from the first pool to the second, reapply pool
parameters to volumes, purge the tapes; situation now is:
*list media pool=VEN-CN-CNPVE3EEGLTOPool

+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------+----------+---------------------+------------+
tapes are in the library:
root@cnpve3:~# mtx -f /dev/sg2 status
Storage Changer /dev/sg2:1 Drives, 8 Slots ( 0 Import/Export )
Data Transfer Element 0:Empty
Storage Element 1:Empty
Storage Element 2:Empty

Storage Element 5:Full :VolumeTag=AAJ664L9
Storage Element 6:Full :VolumeTag=AAJ666L9
Storage Element 7:Empty
Storage Element 8:Full :VolumeTag=CLN001L9
but if i run a test backup, the tape fron other pool get unloaded, but no
tape from the new pool get mounted:

baula is aware of the tapes:
