Hi all.
Bacula version: 5.0.0
I asked this question yesterday and have
been reading the docs to find a solution but have not been
able to do so.
I only do file volume backups (no tapes)
and I copy all the volumes to a remote location. In order to
sync them I look at the volume names and decide whether or not
to upload. i.e. if the volume does not exist in remote
location, I upload it. However I have found that bacula is
re-using volume names. So instead of creating a new name like
CLIENT-INC102, it reuses this name. Below is the config for
the pool I am talking about:
Pool {
Name = “STR-Inc"
LabelFormat = "STRInc-"
Pool Type = "Backup"
Recycle = "yes"
Autoprune = "yes"
Volume Retention = 8 days
Maximum Volumes = 9
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
}
And here are the volumes on disk:

How do I make it so that bacula will create
a new volume name every time it does a backup and not use
existing volumes on disk.
If you need any more information please let
me know.
Thanks
