I wrote a perl script that queries the tape that is needed for the day.
>From my code :
query("select p.Name, VolumeName, LastWritten, VolStatus
from Media m, Pool p
where m.PoolId = p.PoolId
and p.Name = \"" . $weekdays[$dow-1] . "Pool-Tape\"
order by LastWritten;");
Next, I made a batch script:
wanted=`/usr/local/bacula/scripts/wanted.pl -t`
slots=`echo -e 'update slots\n3' | /usr/local/bacula/etc/bconsole`
echo ${slots} | egrep "$wanted" > /dev/null
if [ $? == 1 ] ; then
i="I still did not find the volume '$wanted' in the tapedrive.
Please load this tape in the tapedrive."
echo "$i" | mail -s "Bacula Tape Request" <my-email>
so, if i forget to load a tape, I get a mail around 15:00 with the needed
tape.
