That's what I'm doing here and it's not behaving as expected..... Loaded up the latest restore, selected ALL items with mark * exit Changed Client to eagle-fd (I'm assume the system I want to put it back on) Changed Where to /home/user/bacula-restore (On the above system) ran the job and see the following: 17-Nov 10:55 eagle-dir: Start Restore Job RestoreFiles.2006-11-17_10.55.35 * 17-Nov 10:55 eagle-sd: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded drive 0" command. 17-Nov 10:55 eagle-sd: 3302 Autochanger "loaded drive 0", result is Slot 5. 17-Nov 10:55 eagle-sd: RestoreFiles.2006-11-17_10.55.35 Warning: acquire.c:146 Wrong Volume mounted on device "DDS-3-Drive0" (/dev/nst0): Wanted D1-SB-V0005 have D0-SB-V0005 17-Nov 10:55 eagle-sd: Please mount Volume "D1-SB-V0005" on Storage Device "DDS-3-Drive0" (/dev/nst0) for Job RestoreFiles.2006-11-17_10.55.35 There's my problem.....its wanting the D1 volumes which are in Drive1 to be mounted in Drive0 which is the drive normally used by another system (eagle-fd) why isn't is finding the backups on the drive they were created on?? DDS-3-Drive0 is the drive that has the taped for the system I'm restoring TO DDS-3-Drive1 which holds D1-SB-V0005 is the drive for the system I'm trying to restore that has the backup tapes I need. It seems by changing the client it somehow changes the drive it looks at..... ===[George R. Kasica]=== +1 262 677 0766 President +1 206 374 6482 FAX Netwrx Consulting Inc.
