Hi, I have set all Max Concurrent enries to 20. The one in the directory was at '1'.
It now takes a bit longer until i see this behavior (there are still client which are not reachable for Bacula but that's not bacula's problem.) When I do a 'status director' I see the following: Running Jobs: JobId Level Name Status ====================================================================== 14 Increme Joshua.2006-03-08_15.05.00 is waiting for an appendable Volume 15 Increme Jabez.2006-03-08_15.05.01 is waiting on max Storage jobs 16 Increme Elia.2006-03-08_15.05.02 is waiting on max Storage jobs 17 Increme Joshua.2006-03-08_16.35.00 is waiting on max Storage jobs 18 Increme Jabez.2006-03-08_16.35.01 is waiting on max Storage jobs 19 Increme Elia.2006-03-08_16.35.02 is waiting on max Storage jobs ==== A 'status storage' shows me: Device status: Device "FileStorageDevice" (/backup) is not open or does not exist. Device is BLOCKED waiting for media. ==== In Use Volume status: ==== This might be the problem, I just don't know why Bacula tells me the Device is BLOCKED? Here is my Device definition: Device { Name = FileStorageDevice Media Type = File Archive Device = /backup LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media Random Access = Yes; AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it RemovableMedia = no; AlwaysOpen = no; } The Pool definition: Pool { Name = Default Pool Type = Backup LabelFormat = "${Client:s/-fd//t}-default-${Level}-${NumVols:p/3/0/r}" Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes # Accept Any Volume = yes # write on any volume in the pool Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 Volume Retention = 6 month Maximum Volumes = 6 } Just don't know where to look else. Can you see a problem? Thanks, Torsten. -- Torsten Uhlmann AGYNAMIX(R). Sheltering Talent.
