Uwe,
thanks for the reply. I didn't make my config clear enough..
Multiple clients - each with their own pool. The pool contains all
backups for the specific client.
I have had some success and actually ran successful Copies. I had to
"fool" bacula by creating a dummy Pool. About the only thing the dummy
pool contained was the Next Pool directive. The Copy job selected the
correct job to copy using an sql query.
The Job messages look a little odd - lots of None in the headers - but
they appear to have run successfully.
My autochanger however is not running at capacity... It looked like
everything was running fine after btape but the tapes stopped at much
less than capacity. Probably a SCSI/mt/mt-st issue.
There have been many post regarding this and it also looks like there
might be a potential kernel issue. Hopefully I can figure it out.
Thanks
