Im using a tape loader with 5 tapes(all labeled and inserted in
one single pool). After a previous backup, I have removed the tape( in
which that backup was saved, from the tape loader), in order to keep it
on a vault outside the building. The other 4 tape were kept in the
tapeloader.
For that I did:
1) on console, issued the umount command
2) removed the tape from the tape loader,
3)on console, issued the "update slots" command
Please correct me if i did anything wrong int order to remove the tape.
Today, a new backup job started, but the tape I've removed wasnt on
the tape loader, so I got the following operator email message:
08-Dec 05:00 bserver-sd: Job dns1Backup.2006-12-08_05.00.00 waiting to reserve
a device.
Since I would expect that, I knew which tape i should I insert on the tape
loader.
But my first question is: How can bacula tell me which is the tape that he
needs?
So, after inserting the tape back again on the tape loader, i issued the
"update slots"command and I had to wait for bacula retry the backup
and mount the tape.
That took a (long) while.(no other backup was running)
So, my second question is, is there any way to say to bacula that the
tape is there and he may continue the backup?
Thanks
