Hello, I have been using bacula for some time now, and I am having an .. um.. interesting situation. I am currently using 1.38.9, compiled from source on a Debian/Sarge machine.
I have ~50 clients, each client has its own job, so 50+ jobs. If I set the Volume Use Duration to anything other than 0 (zero), the Volume status is set to "Used" after the first job is run, which - after reading the manual - is the expected behaviour. But this is not what I want since I want all my jobs to go on the same tape. Sooo. I set the Volume Use Duration to 0 (zero), and this lets all my jobs go to the same tape, YES, SUCCESS, CHAMPAGNE...etc Except, the tape status is set to "Append" after the last job is done, now this is not what I want at all, this leaves the door wide open for problems. So to summarize: 1. Use Duration > 0, only 1 job per volume, bad 2. Use Duration = 0, all jobs on the same volume, status = Append, also bad Right now what I do is set the status to Used manually everyday, I can script it, but I'd rather hear if this is normal or am I doing something wrong. What am I missing here? Thanks tc -nick
