Hello,
I am having a lot of trouble with my bacula configuration.
- I have one LTO device with 1 manual tape.
- I labeled 6 tapes for MON,TUE,WEN,THU,FRY,SAT. So I have 6 volumes with one tape each.
- I used the sample configuration with Pools assiging one volume per day.
- I lowered the volume retention to just 10 hours per volume.
- I assigned the max number of jobs to the number of jobs I run nightly, so to have all the jobs on each volume each day.
- I used the Max Start Delay flag to let bacula cancel any job that is in late.
Then if the user insert the wrong tape for one day, bacula never cancel the job, and continue to ask for another volume, until I cancel the job by hands. Why?
Also, when something wrong happens, so that a tape have less jobs backed up than the max number of jobs, next time the volume will be in append mode, messing all the original idea (even though I have a low volume retention, that should tell bacula to recycle every day).
What am I missing?!
