Well, it would have been helpful if you mentioned these points in the beginning. >From everything I see, this is most likely not a bug, and if it is a bug, it is probably one that is in 2.0.3 as well. (please note: I said "most likely not" and "probably"). It appears to me that the volume that job 3 wanted was perhaps not purged at the time that job 3 started, because when you finally got it to work, the first thing the SD did was recycle the volume. Since there is no indication when the volume was purged or marked purged, I can only assume it was after job 3 had started, and instead of cancelling it, you probably could have simply done a "mount" and it would have accomplished the same thing. > > But none the less i will copy this to the users list, just in case i am > misunderstanding something. > > > On Sunday 20 May 2007 14:45, Andreas Helmcke wrote: > >> running bacula 2.1.10 with mysql 4.1.13 on SuSE 10.0; > >> build from sources on the same machine > >> ADIC scalar-100 with 4 LTO-1 drives > >> > >> Hello, > >> > >> i hope, this is the correct list and form to report this kind of problem. > >> > >> Configuration: > >> I have set up 3 jobs to backup 3 server, each job using a different pool. > >> Concurrent Jobs set to more than 3 so all jobs use different drives, if run > >> together. > >> fd on servers for job2 and job3 are still bacula 1.38.5. > >> > >> Starting condition: > >> Drive 0 to 2 have tapes loaded, which are not usable for the actual jobs. > >> > >> Test: > >> Starting all jobs (manually from bconsole). > >> > >> Result: > >> Job1 and 2 run correct (using the autoloader to get a appendable tape from > > the > >> pool) > >> > >> Job 3 blocks with Error: Cannot find any appendable volumes. > >> > >> After Job1 finished successfully I canceled Job3 and rerun it. > >> This time it run successfully (using drive 0 instead of drive 2). > >> > >> Messages: > >> > >> Job1: > >>> 20-May 13:50 elablnsrv04-dir: Start Backup JobId 562, Job=Srv04-std.2007-05-20_13.50.39 > >>> 20-May 13:50 elablnsrv04-dir: Using Device "Drive-0" > >>> 20-May 13:52 elablnsrv04-sd: 3307 Issuing autochanger "unload slot 2, drive 0" command. > >>> 20-May 13:53 elablnsrv04-sd: 3304 Issuing autochanger "load slot 16, drive 0" command. > >>> 20-May 13:53 elablnsrv04-sd: 3305 Autochanger "load slot 16, drive 0", status is OK. > >>> 20-May 13:55 elablnsrv04-sd: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command. > >>> 20-May 13:55 elablnsrv04-sd: 3302 Autochanger "loaded? drive 0", result is Slot 16. > >>> 20-May 13:55 elablnsrv04-sd: Volume "000039L1" previously written, moving to end of data. > >>> 20-May 13:56 elablnsrv04-sd: Ready to append to end of Volume "000039L1" at file=45. > >> > >> Job2: > >> > >>> 20-May 13:51 elablnsrv04-dir: Start Backup JobId 563, Job=Srv01-std.2007-05-20_13.51.24 > >>> 20-May 13:51 elablnsrv04-dir: Using Device "Drive-1" > >>> 20-May 13:53 elablnsrv04-sd: 3307 Issuing autochanger "unload slot 38, drive 1" command. > >>> 20-May 13:54 elablnsrv04-sd: 3304 Issuing autochanger "load slot 29, drive 1" command. > >>> 20-May 13:55 elablnsrv04-sd: 3305 Autochanger "load slot 29, drive 1", status is OK. > >>> 20-May 13:55 elablnsrv04-sd: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 1" command. > >>> 20-May 13:55 elablnsrv04-sd: 3302 Autochanger "loaded? drive 1", result is Slot 29. > >>> 20-May 13:55 elablnsrv04-sd: Volume "GLG319L1" previously written, moving to end of data. > >>> 20-May 13:58 elablnsrv04-sd: Ready to append to end of Volume "GLG319L1" at file=5. > >> > >> Job3, first attempt: > >> > >>> 20-May 13:53 elablnsrv04-dir: Start Backup JobId 564, Job=Mail01-std.2007-05-20_13.53.13 > >>> 20-May 13:53 elablnsrv04-dir: Recycled volume "000037L1" > >>> 20-May 13:53 elablnsrv04-dir: Using Device "Drive-2" > >>> 20-May 13:54 elablnsrv04-sd: Job Mail01-std.2007-05-20_13.53.13 waiting.
