Hi all,

I have a question about data spooling in bacula.

If a job runs and write directly to tape without spooling (e.g. a Copy Job) and 
pool "tape_full" on storage "autochanger1" (two tape drives) and a second job 
is started with spooling (e.g. Backup Job) and pool "tape_full" on storage 
"autochanger1".  What happens when the second job begin despooling? Will the 
despooling still have exculsive access described in [1] or will the two jobs 
write concurrently to the same tape drive and mixed the backup data on the 
volume?

Job 1:
Type: Copy
Spool Data: no
Pool: tape_full
Storage: autochanger1

Job 2:
Type: Backup
Spool Data: yes
Pool: tape_full
Storage: autochanger1

Thanks,

  - Jummo
