Anyone have a clue about this? I'd like to get to the bottom of this. ~Doug
-----Original Message----- From: Doug Sampson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2008 02:47 PM To: 'Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net' Subject: [Bacula-users] "Cannot find any appendable volumes" Hi all, I'm running Bacula 2.4.2 off a FreeBSD 7.0 server using a DDS-3 tape drive. I'm using a Grandfather/father/son tape rotational scheme where I back up the data and the catalog as two nightly jobs onto a tape each time that it runs. All is well. Except for the monthly full backup. It will start the data backup and complete it. It starts the catalog backup job and report that it cannot find any appendable volume. I have to cancel that job in order to get going with the next backup job. Monthly backup jobs are scheduled the first Saturday of each month. The weird thing is- the monthly job definition is exactly the same as the weekly job definitions. I have absolutely no issues with the weekly jobs nor with the daily jobs. 04-Oct 02:31 orion-dir JobId 2019: BeforeJob: run command "/usr/local/share/bacula/make_catalog_backup bacula bacula" 04-Oct 02:41 orion-dir JobId 2019: Start Backup JobId 2019, Job=BackupCatalog.2008-10-04_00.10.03 04-Oct 02:41 orion-dir JobId 2019: Using Device "DDS-3" 04-Oct 02:41 orion-sd JobId 2019: Job BackupCatalog.2008-10-04_00.10.03 waiting.

+---------+------------+-----------+---------+---------------+----------+--- -----------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+ * The llist media output shows that only one job was completed on this tape meaning there is room for one more job. The only thing I can think of that would explain this behavior is the fact due to a department policy requiring all tapes used on any given day use the same name- i.e. Month-0007 across all backup servers- caused me to have to purge the contents of that volume before I can use it. This one server happened to have the monthly tape name that was a month behind all other servers. So I have been manually purging and making sure it is marked 'recycle' the day before each monthly backup. This will continue for one year until all of the tapes are in line. This policy was put into effect last June and since then I have been seeing this issue each month. Does anyone have a clue as to why I am experiencing this issue with only the monthly backup jobs and not with any of the other jobs? I apologize for this lengthy mail although I feel it gives you the necessary information up front. ~Doug ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
