Hello,

We're using Bacula 2.4.2 (Debian Lenny) on a big (21TB effective) RAID-6
box. While the RAID is extremely trustworthy the ole "all eggs in one box"
rule lead us to divide it into 2 separate file systems to avoid any FS
corruption to wipe out all backups at once.

When trying to do a restore with the very nice bat GUI the following got
logged: 
---
The job will require the following
   Volume(s)                 Storage(s)                SD Device(s)
===========================================================================

   Full-0054                 File1                     FileStorage1
   Diff-0072                 File2                     FileStorage2
   Inc-0075                  File2                     FileStorage2
---

So obviously it knew at that point where the respective volumes could be
found. But once it was done with the full backup this happened:
---
19-Dec 18:06 lazarus-sd JobId 267: Warning: acquire.c:221 Read open device "File
Storage1" (/data1/bacula) Volume "Diff-0072" failed: ERR=dev.c:490 Could not ope
n: /data1/bacula/Diff-0072, ERR=No such file or directory

19-Dec 18:06 lazarus-sd JobId 267: Please mount Volume "Diff-0072" for:
    Job:          RestoreFiles.2008-12-19_18.05.46
    Storage:      "FileStorage1" (/data1/bacula)
    Pool:         Default
    Media type:   File
---

So now it insisted on getting the volumes from FileStorage1 (despite
knowing where they really are). 
The File1 storage was the default in the bat restore dialog window, so my
guess is that it's this bit overriding things. The choices are either of
the 2 defined storage locations, so no "any" or "use the one where you
think it is" option there.

Is there any way to get this working w/o either having single storage
device or generating a symlink farm for restores?

Regards,

Christian
