Hi All
I have a strange problem today with my Bacula. Some jobs are
running because they are waiting a volume to write. Well I investigate and see
that some Pool have all volumes with statut Used. This is my weekly policy :
MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes |
VolFiles | VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType |
LastWritten |
+---------+-----------------------------------+-----------+---------+----------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| 395 | Client-Daily-0395 | Used | 1 |
809 | 0 | 518,400 | 1 | 0 | 0 | File |
2009-06-09 04:20:02 |
| 414 | Client-Daily-0414 | Used | 1 |
809 | 0 | 518,400 | 1 | 0 | 0 | File |
2009-06-03 04:20:03 |
| 444 | Client-Daily-0444 | Used | 1 |
809 | 0 | 518,400 | 1 | 0 | 0 | File |
2009-06-04 04:20:03 |
| 527 | Client-Daily-0527 | Used | 1 |
809 | 0 | 518,400 | 1 | 0 | 0 | File |

| 554 | Client-Daily-0554 | Used | 1 |
809 | 0 | 518,400 | 1 | 0 | 0 | File |
2009-06-05 04:20:03 |

Well, let’s focus on the volume 414 / Client-Daily-0414,
his volume retention is 518,400 ( = 6 days), and it was written the last time
at 2009-06-03 04 :20 :03, so I conclude that today 2009-06-10, this
volume has to be Append and not Used. Well, I use the update command to change
the status of this volume. And just after bacula moves the statut Append to
User :
10-Jun 10:57 mammouth-dir JobId 0: Max configured use
duration exceeded. Marking Volume "Client-Daily-0414" as Used.
I try also to reduce the volume retention and update again
the status to Append, but it’s the same result, Bacula always marks Volume
"Client-Daily-0414" as Used.
All works since 1 month, so I don’t understand why
there is a problem now.
Someone can help me ? I can provide you all
information you need to help me to fix my problem. If I don’t find the
solution today, backup will fail tomorrow again.
