The usual way to configure Bacula it is to make it recycle (reuse) the existing volumes, but that is tricky if you must have control over exactly which volume is used for each job. __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
