You can disable the volume or change the volume status to Full if you don't intend to append any additional data. If you disable the volume, you will need to enable it in order to use it. I deal in sets of 10 volumes and run into situations where Bacula want a volume that has an earlier

Re: [Bacula-users] Backing up to dedicated storage

Re: [Bacula-users] Backing up to dedicated storage

Whoops, just seen that you already had that command in your config file so then I don't understand why it still expected you to have a database selected. Will think further on it. Adolf Belka. Sent from my Desktop Computer On 12/02/18 22:47, Adolf Belka wrote: As you have not specified
