Re: [Bacula-users] Pool

Hi, I don't know if this could make a miracle, but did you think about modifying your Night pool like this ? Pool { Name = Night Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes AutoPrune = yes Volume Use Duration = 24h Volume Retention = 13 days (LabelFormat = "${

Sir Kern and Ryan I understand what you said, but I ask for my company to by more tape and the answer is "NO WAY, MAKE A MIRACLE :-)" ... I have only 10 tape for my all jobs... I need that bacula recycling a tape after 10 days of used. I keep my data for 7 days in a single tap

Re: [Bacula-users] Pool

Well The resume is this: My Pool don't recycling any tape, because the volume stay in append status... I have to change the status for Full manually and I not want to do so... How can I set bacula to do this automatic?!?!? On Tue, 22 Nov 2005 22:16:28 -0500, Ryan Novosielski wrote > I don't kn

Re: [Bacula-users] Pool

I don't know what you're writing to the tapes -- you really haven't said (not what, really, but how much and how many times). Try looking into the Maximum Volume Jobs and Volume Use Duration (I may be hazy on the names). This should be a clue. Gilberto Nunes Ferreira wrote: Hi all My proble

Re: [Bacula-users] pool confusion

Thank you for your responses. I seem to have it working now. I set the default pool to Full so that if any jobs get upgraded they will go in the correct pool. The main confusion, which I already mentioned but will reiterate is/was: 1. I would have thought or hoped that somehow the pool cou

I've been searching the archive and it looks like I'm not the only one confused by pool behavior. I apologize if this is redundant but I can't seem to find an authoritative answer. My goal is simple: put all Full backups in the Full pool, put all Differentials in the Differential pool and p

Re: [Bacula-users] Pool overrides

I would think a pool specified on a Schedule resource's Run line should override the pool specified in the Job resource. The problem is that only Pool= can be specified as a Run option. So when a Run line specifies a pool and the job level is upgraded to full from differential or incremental, t

[Bacula-users] Pool overrides

Hello, From time to time, I've heard some complaints about the way Bacula selects pools, but it has never been specific enough for me to do something. Now, I have an example where I have defined an Incremental Pool, and in using the "run" command, even though the job is an Incremental job, the
