[Bacula-users] Job is waiting on Storage

Hi!

I have the following pools:

*list pools
+--------+---------+---------+---------+----------+-------------+
| poolid | name    | numvols | maxvols | pooltype | labelformat |
+--------+---------+---------+---------+----------+-------------+
|      1 | Default |       0 |       0 | Backup   | *           |
|      2 | lib1    |       1 |       0 | Backup   | *           |
|      3 | dp      |     348 |     555 | Backup   | Vol         |
|      4 | Scratch |       0 |       0 | Backup   | *           |
+--------+---------+---------+---------+----------+-------------+

dp is the diskpool, containing 32GiB-Volumes. It is configured as
follows:
Pool {
        Name                            = dp
        Pool Type                       = Backup
        Recycle                         = yes
        Recycle Pool                    = dp
        Recycle Oldest Volume           = yes
        AutoPrune                       = yes
        Volume Retention                = 365 Days
        Storage                         = dp1
        Next Pool                       = lib1
        LabelFormat                     = "Vol"
        Maximum Volume Bytes            = 32G
        Maximum Volumes                 = 555 # 17.76TB
}

Now the problem is that many of the scheduled jobs are often "... is
waiting on Storage dp1", and status sd=dp1 says:

Jobs waiting to reserve a drive:
   3602 JobId=290 device "dp1" (/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1) is busy (already 
reading/writing).
   3608 JobId=309 wants Pool="dp" but have Pool="" nreserve=0 on drive "dp1" 
(/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1).
   3608 JobId=308 wants Pool="dp" but have Pool="" nreserve=0 on drive "dp1" 
(/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1).
   3608 JobId=310 wants Pool="dp" but have Pool="" nreserve=0 on drive "dp1" 
(/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1).
   3608 JobId=249 wants Pool="dp" but have Pool="" nreserve=0 on drive "dp1" 
(/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1).
   3608 JobId=311 wants Pool="dp" but have Pool="" nreserve=0 on drive "dp1" 
(/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1).
   3608 JobId=267 wants Pool="dp" but have Pool="" nreserve=0 on drive "dp1" 
(/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1).
   3608 JobId=269 wants Pool="dp" but have Pool="" nreserve=0 on drive "dp1" 
(/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1).
   3608 JobId=312 wants Pool="dp" but have Pool="" nreserve=0 on drive "dp1" 
(/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1).
Device "dp1" (/var/bacula/diskpool/fs1) is mounted with:
    Volume:      Vol0349
    Pool:        *unknown*
    Media type:  File
    Total Bytes=11,726,668,867 Blocks=181,775 Bytes/block=64,512
    Positioned at File=2 Block=3,136,734,274

So, he seems to be unhappy that the sd has a Volume from an *unknown*
pool, whereas the jobs require a volume from the "dp" pool. "list media
pool=dp" verifies that Vol0349 actually belongs to the "dp" pool. What's
interesting is that when I manually start all my backup-jobs while no
other job is running, all of them get going. Only the scheduled jobs
suffer from this.

Kind regards,
