Hello list, hopyfully someone can tell me why Ð got the following "intervention needed" message by Bacula on Sunday:
backupserver-sd: Job Fileserver-RD.2005-04-03_01.05.00 waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes. Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for: Storage: FileStorage Media type: File Pool: Full-Pool The setup is almost 100% identical to what is described in http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Using_Pools_Manage_Volumes.html and has been running very well for months now, doing full, differential and incremental backups to a large disk-RAID. Why would Bacula suddenly be unable to find appendable volumes when it has been running without intervention for this long? And more importantly: what would I need to do to fix this problem so it never comes back? The site Bacula is backing up is quite a bit away and I don't have remote access so it would be nice if I was able to drive there once and fix it for good. Of course I know that I should use the "label" command now, and I should do it ASAP since the jobs are waiting for 3 days now, but I want some background info on this. Any help is appreciated!
