Hi,

I have tried to start vchanger long time ago but i found it a bit too
complex. Since then i am running following configuration:

Autochanger {
    Name = local-sd
    Changer Device = /dev/null
    Changer Command = ""
    Device = drive-0, drive-1, drive-2, drive-3
    }

Device {
    Name = drive-0
    Device Type = File
    Media Type = File
    Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage
    Automatic Mount = yes
    Always Open = yes
    RemovableMedia = no
    RequiresMount = no
    Autochanger = yes
    Drive Index = 0
    Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
    RandomAccess = yes
    Label Media = yes
    }

Device {
    Name = drive-1
    Device Type = File
    Media Type = File
    Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage
    Automatic Mount = yes
    Always Open = yes
    RemovableMedia = no
    RequiresMount = no
    Autochanger = yes
    Drive Index = 1
    Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
    RandomAccess = yes
    Label Media = yes
    }

Device {
    Name = drive-2
    Device Type = File
    Media Type = File
    Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage
    Automatic Mount = yes
    Always Open = yes
    RemovableMedia = no
    RequiresMount = no
    Autochanger = yes
    Drive Index = 2
    Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
    RandomAccess = yes
    Label Media = yes
    }

Device {
    Name = drive-3
    Device Type = File
    Media Type = File
    Archive Device = /var/lib/bareos/storage
    Automatic Mount = yes
    Always Open = yes
    RemovableMedia = no
    RequiresMount = no
    Autochanger = yes
    Drive Index = 3
    Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
    RandomAccess = yes
    Label Media = yes
    }

Storage {
  Name = bareos-sd
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4

  # remove comment from "Plugin Directory" to load plugins from specified
directory.
  # if "Plugin Names" is defined, only the specified plugins will be loaded,
  # otherwise all storage plugins (*-sd.so) from the "Plugin Directory".
  #
  # Plugin Directory = "/usr/lib64/bareos/plugins"
  # Plugin Names = ""
}

Pool {
  Name = default
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = no                       # No recycling, volumes used once and
then truncated
  AutoPrune = yes                     # Prune expired volumes
  Action On Purge = Truncate
  File Retention = 70 days
  Job Retention = 70 days
  Volume Retention = 70 days
#  Use Volume Once = yes
  Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
  Label Format = "default-${JobId}"
  Storage = local-sd
  }

I belive this setup is a bit tricky but it works perfectly for me. The
trick is to have only one job per volume and having number of jobs limited
on SD level to the total sum of devices. I am not sure but i think it was
set that way in order to avoid having the same volume opened by multiple
jobs simultanously.

Hope this can be helpful but feel free to correct me if you find this
configuration to be a total mess.

PS. It is possible that this setup require a helper script in order to have
expired volume files (and jobs) correctly removed.

Kind Regards,
Bartłomiej
