Juan,

 

What we ended up doing was to manually change the status on the tape we wanted to use to Recycle and then when we re-ran list nextvol it found the correct tape.  Don’t quite understand why this worked but it did.  Thanks for your response.

Hi.

Maybe some change related with storage, and the bacula-dir didn't know that.

Hello,

 

We are running Bacula 5.0.1 on Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit on a  Dell server with an internal LTO-3 tape drive.  We have three pools (Daily, Weekly and Monthly) configured and Bacula has been running without incident for almost a year now until today.

 

When running the list nextvol command the following error message appears:

 

Could not find next Volume for Job Windows Server Backup (Pool=Weekly, Level=Full)

 

When I run the list media command for the Weekly pool three tapes are listed in the used status with a volume retention period of 14 days.  The oldest tape was written on 5-24-2012 so I would expect this tape to be used next.

 

Pool: Weekly

+---------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+

+---------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+

 

Any help would be appreciated in determining why Bacula cannot find the next volume.
