Look at daemon.log if an error occurred on the volume while networker tried to 
mount or umount the tape. My experience is, that this often happens in a 
san-enviroment. For example , during backup operation the device recieves a 
reset, the tape rewinds, NetWorker doesn't recognise this reset and overwrites 
the label of the volume. On the next mount operation NetWorker can't read the 
label, in release 7.x he marks the label as full and sets all ssids (if there 
are one) to status "suspect"

Betreff: [Networker] stage device: 0 KB written, but full?


Hi,

when I ask NW:

mminfo -q 'pool=Filesystem' -r 'volume,written,%used'

I get:

stage0           51 GB full
stage1           38 GB 100%
stage2            0 KB   0%
stage3            0 KB   0%
stage4            0 KB full
stage5         6372 KB full
stage6         9891 MB full
stage7           66 GB 100%

Why this? This is not logical, each staging device has the size of 165 GB.

This silly behaviour means: I have to watch NW what it is doing each weekend
and have to label these devices manually so that I won't get a "waiting for
volume of pool Filesystem"...

Do you think a crontab'es script could help?

Olaf
