If you simply copy the existing backup. you will be in the state you were at the disk change. But as you tried label and it failed, I suspect some permission trouble with the new drive. check if user bareos (usually) can read and write to the external harddrive mount point ?... Otherwise, if you want to start like if you never use bareos before. Simply delete all media you have in list media with the delete volume command. -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch Bareos Partner, openSUSE Member, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot openSUSE Tumbleweed (20160818) (x86_64) Linux 4.6.4-2-default x86_64 GNU/Linux, nvidia: 370.23 Qt: 5.6.1, KDE Frameworks: 5.24.0, Plasma: 5.7.3, kmail2 5.2.3 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bareos-users" group.
