Re: [Bacula-users] Job is waiting for a mount request

John,

Please accept my apologies. It was disk space issue after all. The server had 1.7T and our administrator mounted the backup partition in wrong path. I was stupid enough not to check the mount points.

Tons of thanks for your valuable time and pointing me to right direction. I am glad to be part of wonderful Bacula community.

Thanks again,

Venkatesh K

I believe it should at that point. You may want to look at the logs to
see if there were any error messages. You are sure you did not run out
of space?

Does that volume exist in the output of:

list media pool=Backup

You can execute that in bconsole. If it does exist is this the last volume?
