The job warned again after 16 hours, so it didn't cancel itself. I found
how to update the volume from Error to Append again ('update volume') and
when I manually canceled the job the volume was recycled and written to
again.
Now I had a new problem, due to the 1 GiB limit I set, the job blocked
again during the backup. Instead of canceling it, I removed the limit in
the config file, did a reload and update, which didn't do much so this time
I stopped and restarted the bacula-director process. Now, using 'status
dir' the job listing doesn't show any running jobs (all scheduled/waiting
jobs are gone), but using 'status client' the job seems to be still running
(showing the filename where it stopped due to the volume byte limit).
When trying to use 'cancel' it says there are no jobs running. How do I fix
this?
