Hello All,
 
I still have a problem with the Bacula backup software waiting for me enter STATUS 1 and then UNMOUNT and MOUNT to start the backup everyday.
 
The Volume Retention  Period and Use Period is set for 5 days (for daily backups - 6 tapes in rotation) and 18 days for Weekly backups (3 tapes in rotation) and monthly backups is st to 5 months (6 tapes in rotation).
 
I run a RUNBEFORE script to mount the tape and when checking the logs, it does mount it as per the script and then Bacula prunes the jobs on the Tape media. After this it starts the backup job and then instead of recycling the volume and start the backup, it stands and says " Cannot find any appendable volumes"
 
I've tried all troubleshooters and possible settings specified on User guide and on the mailing list to my knowledge. Can someone help please?
 
The following might just help in identifying the problem:
 
RUN BEFORE SCRIPT:
==================

#!/bin/sh

bconsole -c /etc/bacula/bconsole.conf <<END_OF_DATA

@output /dev/null
# status 1
# unmount storage="DLT"
mount storage="DLT"
quit

END_OF_DATA

exit 0
#EOF
