Hi.
Just one quick they that jumped into my eye at first:
Why do you use one pool for every day?
We do something very similar here, thats our pool for that:
Pool {
Name = Daily
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
Recycle Current Volume = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Accept Any Volume = yes
LabelFormat = "D${Day:p/2/0/r}${mirror_days[$Day]}0"
Cleaning Prefix = "CLNI"
## recycle the tape after ...
Volume Retention = 13 days
## we use it once but for multiple jobs -> e.g. not Maximum Volume Jobs
= 1
Volume Use Duration = 23 hours
}
The tapes can be used for 23 hours and are reused every two weeks. Works here
without any issues, so it might be the different usage of the pools.
Greetings, Michael
