Hello Bacula-users,

I have been testing the VirtualFull backup because I'm still having
problem.  I have created a minimal configuration on a test
machine which demonstrates the problem.

The configuration has two different backup devices, both are hard
disks.  Each is in a separate pool, and each is a different type.

The system seems to get the external pool confused with the internal
pool
You can download the entire configuration from the following URL:

http://www.bayertechnologygroup.com//bacula.tar.gz

You will have to label two volumes, one for the external drive (put it
into the external pool), and one for the internal drive (put it in the
internal pool)

This is using a standard 3.0.1 release.  While this config uses MySql
I have experienced the same problem with a PostgreSql database.

The following sequence of commands will activate the bug:

run job=Client1 yes
run job=BackupCatalog yes
run job=Client1 level=VirtualFull yes
run job=BackupCatalog level=VirtualFull yes
run job=Client1 yes
run job=Client1 level=VirtualFull yes

When you run these commands one at a time and wait for it to finish,
each finishes successfully.  However, the problem occurs when there
are multiple jobs waiting.  To demonstrate, simply do a copy/paste of
all the commands into bconsole in a terminal window, and some of the
VirtualFull backups will fail.

The following is one of the error messages I get:
