Give us a chance! Your last message was only 16 hours ago.

For some reason your sd has decided that it is playing with volume name "info". The line above is where it is telling the director that the volume is in error and then SD reports a fatal error which ends up aborting the whole job. The interesting thing is why SD decided that it was using "info". I don't know enough about the internals of volume selection etc. to work that out. Some ideas though... Did you ever create a volume named "info"? Have you wiped your bacula database since then and started again? The other standard question is are you running the same versions of director, sd and fd or are they different ones? > > 11-Dec 18:43 linux-dir: Client1.2006-12-11_18.43.47 Error: > Unable to get > > Media record for Volume info: ERR=sql_get.c:950 Media > record for Volume > > "info" not found. > > > > 11-Dec 18:43 linux-sd: Client1.2006-12-11_18.43.47 Fatal > error: Error > > getting Volume info: 1991 Catalog Request for vol=info failed: > > sql_get.c:950 Media record for Volume "info" not found. > > 11-Dec 18:43 linux-sd: Client1.2006-12-11_18.43.47 Fatal > error: Job 3 > > canceled. > > 11-Dec 18:43 linux-fd: Client1.2006-12-11_18.43.47 Fatal error: > > job.c:1751 Bad response to Append Data command.
