Hello,

I am running a full back up with a size of  "estimate files=983,529 bytes=306,761,539,624", the backup started normally and used up 1 full tape 160GB (uncompressed), then it switched tapes and continued to copy data to the second tape, but all of the sudden it stops and bacula starts complaining with: "JobId 2: Warning: Unable add Scratch Volume, Pool "Full-Pool-dsk-tpe" full MaxVols=2"

list media shows:

Both tapes are the same, both of them are capable of storing 160GB of uncompressed data. Why is it still asking for more tapes?

Also, status on director shows:

     1  Full    983,490    307.0 G  OK       11-Aug-10 00:55 H34-FileServ-dsk-tap

Why is the backup still running even when it is shown in "Terminated Jobs" with OK status..?

Thanks
