PS: I'm running 2.2.8 on Solaris.
Stumbled across this in the archives. It appears as if this is not
possible. I also ran into the same problem as the other gentleman
attempting this in the archives:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.backup.bacula.general/32045
Now, I've gone around all of that and I think I'm in the place I need to
be. I have two catalogs, bacula, and bacula_archive (I guess that's the
obvious name for it!). I have deleted the volume I wish to use from my
original catalog and labeled it in the new one. However, when the job
runs, I get complaints about there being no available volumes in the
pool. It would appear that the job is still using the wrong catalog for
some reason. Is there any way to tell why?
