Upgraded Bacula and Storage to 5.2.10 MY HUNCH We have two networks A B We have two Schedules A B It seems like there's an issue with something on Schedule A.

If one job must finish before another starts, you should use lower priorities (higher numbers) for the later jobs as you already tried.

[Bacula-users] bacula jobs use volumes from the wrong pool - bug?
Hello, Running 5.2.9, though I believe we've seen this sporadically in earlier versions. Jobs are using volumes that are in pools to which they have not been assigned. This is likely a bug as I don't see anything peculiar about our configuration. We are using a tape library with 2 drives, both set to autoselect. The library contains volumes that are properly assigned (i.e. database entries for volumes look fine) to various pools, including a Full pool and an Incremental pool. Twice in the past week, Full jobs which specify the use of the Full pool using jobdefs are using volumes from the Incremental pool. I haven't narrowed down all the details, but I believe it's if the Incremental volume is already loaded in a drive when the Full job in question is launched. Example: 01-Jul 22:00 DIR JobId 244098: Fatal error: JobId 243957 already running.

Jobs are using volumes that are in pools to which they have not been assigned. This is likely a bug as I don't see anything peculiar about our configuration. We are using a tape library with 2 drives, both set to autoselect. The library contains volumes that are properly assigned (i.e. database entries for volumes look fine) to various pools, including a Full pool and an Incremental pool. Twice in the past week, Full jobs which specify the use of the Full pool using jobdefs are using volumes from the Incremental pool. I haven't narrowed down all the details, but I believe it's if the Incremental volume is already loaded in a drive when the Full job in question is launched.

Yes, I raised that Debian bug/wish-list item:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=657948
I have just held my udev package at the version that isn't broken (Debian
package version 172-1).
But for a fresh install that wouldn't be an option.
The change removed the following lines from /lib/udev/rules.d/80-drivers.rules
SUBSYSTEM==scsi, ENV{DEVTYPE}==scsi_device, TEST!=[module/sg], \
RUN+=/sbin/modprobe -b sg
You you probably put that rule into your own local file underneath the
/etc/udev/rule.d/ directory.
Failing that, manually running '/sbin/modprobe -b sg' at the right time would
probably also do the trick.

[Bacula-users] Bacula MTX Tape Autochanger does not work
Thanks again Gary - I am reluctant to run the mtx-changer script included in Bacula just yet, as this usually hangs and results in having to restart the tape library, the bacula server, or both. I have compiled mtx from source, and replaced the Debian packages version - however, I'll have to wait until early next week to try it, as the recent Wheezy (including Linux Kernel 3.0.2) upgrade has removed the /dev/sg* devices from the server!!
