Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula does not create a new volume
Hello Sergio, You limited the 'Maximum Volume Bytes' to 5 MB. How much your backup job uses? Is this enough? If your first job, at 00:00, uses two volumes, since you have 'Maximum Volumes = 2', your second job scheduled to half an hour later will not start because the two volumes created for the first job cannot be reused due to the retention period. And bacula is unable to automatically create because you already reached the limit of 2 volumes in this pool.

What'd you want to achieve? What you have is bacula will create volume 1, then it will create volume 2, and once you got your maxvolumes it'll start truncating existing ones and writing to volume 1, then volume 2, etc. -- Dimitri Maziuk Programmer/sysadmin BioMagResBank, UW-Madison -- http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.

Because in your Pool resource you have specified that the pool contain a maximum of 2 volumes with the "Maximum Volumes = 2" directive. -- Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.
