Hi Terry,

There's also the "disable" bconsole command which allows you to

Hello Dave,
maybe can try the "recycle oldest volume" in your pool definition and
update your volumes from the pool resource? This may help with your

Looks like you are missing the "Recycle Oldest Volume"
parameter. Also, it might be a good idea to set the maximum volume use
duration to one day (see the docs) and not try limiting it by the
number of jobs.

Unless you tell Bacula where your tape changer is, it won't be able to

Here's an example from our setup:

Changer Device =

Full backups now go to tape as expected, but when host01 is due for an

As the tape's write performance is better than tat of our disk based
