Hey everyone!
I’m running Bacula 7.0.4 on Ubuntu 14.04. I’m backing up to
two different devices. One is a hot-swap hard drive bay which
I’m treating as a changer using the vchanger program. These
drives get changed out and rotated off site. The other is a
fixed drive. The two devices will use two distinct pools.
The issue I’m having is that no matter what I do, Bacula
seems to see the FIRST storage resource only. This ultimately
causes problems because bacula will look to the wrong device for
volumes associated with the pool the job calls for.
I have a similar setup on a Bacula 5.2 setup that is working
great. So I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. Config files look
the same between the two. If anyone has some suggestions, I’d
be eternally grateful.

And the stanza’s from my bacula-sd.conf:

Changer Command = "/usr/local/bin/vchanger -u root

}

Media Type = File1
Archive Device = /mnt/localstorage/

}
When I execute “status sd” in bconsole, I get this:

Notice how the “Automatically selected Storage:” line
changes? It just picks the first one and seems to ignore the
other. On the 5.2 install, I get a sub menu asking which
Storage I want to get status on:
*status
sd
The
defined Storage resources are:
1: File
2: LocalStorage
Select
Storage resource (1-2): 1
Hopefully someone can see what I’m doing wrong here.
Thanks!
