Hi, I would like to configure my bacula 1.38.1 to use the current loaded blank or recycled tape instead of the last appendable tape of the pool.
Is it possible, if yes how? The background is, that we would like to have only one pool, because of simpler tapehandling and would like to change the Tape manually before and after the fullbackup, which is once a week. The person who changes the tapes should not need to interact with bacula, only change the tape and write the label on the tape which she becomes via mail (bacula status mail). Any hints are welcome.. Here the important parts of the configuration: Schedule { Name = "WeeklyCycle" Run = Level=Full Storage=Tandberg thu at 20:00 Run = Level=Differential Storage=Tandberg fri-wed at 20:00 } Pool { Name = Backup Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes Label Format = "BACKUP-${Year}-${Month:p/2/0/r}-${Day:p/2/0/r}_${JobId}" AutoPrune = yes VolumeRetention = 4 weeks Accept Any Volume = yes Volume Use Duration = 7 days Recycle Current Volume = yes } JobDefs { Name = "BasicJob" Type = Backup Level = Differential Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" Messages = Standard Storage = Tandberg Pool = "Backup" Priority = 10 Max Wait Time = 13 Hours } Job { Name = "merkur" JobDefs = "BasicJob" Write Bootstrap = "/u00/bacula/bootstraps/merkur.bsr" Client = merkur-fd FileSet = "MerkurFull" SpoolData = yes Priority =14 RunBeforeJob = "/etc/bacula/scripts/RunBeforeJob.sh '%c' '%d' '%i' '%e' '%j' '%l' '%n' '%t' '%v'" RunAfterJob = "/etc/bacula/scripts/RunAfterJob.sh '%c' '%d' '%i' '%e' '%j' '%l' '%n' '%t' '%v'" ClientRunBeforeJob = "/etc/bacula/scripts/ClientRunBeforeJob.sh '%c' '%d' '%i' '%e' '%j' '%l' '%n' '%t' '%v'" ClientRunAfterJob = "/etc/bacula/scripts/ClientRunAfterJob.sh '%c' '%d' '%i' '%e' '%j' '%l' '%n' '%t' '%v'" } ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
