Hi !
We have a tape that gets changed daily and i seem to have a few problems
with it. I`d like to configure the pool in a way that no matter what the
currently inserted tape will be used.
backup-dir Version: 1.38.4
bernoulli-fd Version: 1.38.2
Pool {
Name = dailytape-pool # used monthly
Pool Type = Backup
Label Format = "daily."
Maximum Volume Jobs = 3 # 3 Clients = 3 jobs !
Volume Use Duration = 1 day
Maximum Volumes = 16
Volume Retention = 11 days
Recycle Current Volume = yes
AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
Recycle = yes # automatically recycle Volumes
}
This is what i tried, but it doesn`t seem to work.
05-Apr 21:05 backup-dir: Start Backup JobId 5297,
Job=Bernoulli.2006-04-05_21.05.01
05-Apr 21:06 backup-dir: Pruned 3 Jobs on Volume "daily.0014" from catalog.
05-Apr 21:06 backup-sd: Bernoulli.2006-04-05_21.05.01 Warning: Director
wanted Volume "daily.0013".
Current Volume "daily.0014" not acceptable because:
1998 Volume "daily.0014" status is Full, but should be Append,
Purged or Recycle (cannot automatically recycle current volume, as it
still contains unpruned data).
05-Apr 21:06 backup-sd: Please mount Volume "daily.0013" on Storage
Device "daily-sd" (/dev/nst0) for Job Bernoulli.2006-04-05_21.05.01
05-Apr 22:05 bernoulli-fd: Bernoulli.2006-04-05_21.05.01 Fatal error:
job.c:1594 Comm error with SD. bad response to Append Data.
ERR=Interrupted system call
After that you get the backup canceled info (canceled because max wait
time is reached).
You can see it prunes the 3 jobs on the volume just before the backup
starts but then says there is still unpruned data on it. The job that
starts 4 hours later and uses the same pool does not have any problems
and uses the tape.
Also Volume Use Duration does not seem to kick in ... if i list the
volumes in the pool i get this:
+---------+------------+-----------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+------------+---------------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | VolBytes | VolFiles |
VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten
| 157 | daily.0013 | Append | 63,072,842,832 | 64 |
950,400 | 1 | 0 | 1 | daily-tape | 2006-04-05 13:09:06 |
| 192 | daily.0014 | Append | 49,326,499,066 | 50 |
950,400 | 1 | 0 | 1 | daily-tape | 2006-04-06 12:47:56
+---------+------------+-----------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+------------+---------------------+
(cut out the unimportant stuff)
They should have changed to status "used" by now. The Maximum Volume
Jobs is not hit (because of the first backup failing) but the Volume use
duration should have been.
Any ideas ?
Best regards,
