Yes, I saw your email. The problem clearly showed up in the "status storage" that you did while the job was running -- the SD list of Volumes indicated two Volumes mounted on the same drive. I thought I had fixed this in 1.37.38, but there is obviously something still wrong. It would help me a lot if you would put your output in a bug report. Any pointers on reproducing what you did in the simplest way would be much appreciated. I regret to keep asking people to create bug reports, but get 100s of emails every day, a bug report is the only way I can be sure that a message or report does not get lost ... > > > Has anybody observed the same, or has cases where the error occured when > > no jobs were running on the required storage device? > > > > Arno > > ------------------------------------------------------- > SF.Net email is sponsored by: > Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server. > Download it for free - -and be entered to win a 42" plasma tv or your very > own Sony(tm)PSP.
