Hi there,
I've been struggling for weeks to get my previously working setup
working again. :-( I read the docs multiple times but was unable to spot
my fault.
I've got the following setup:
Pool {
Name = Weekly
Pool Type = Backup
# volumes are moved to Scratch manually, avoid automatic recycling
Recycle=no
AutoPrune = no
Volume Retention = 6 weeks
Volume Use Duration = 23 hours
RecyclePool = Scratch
}
Pool {
Name = Scratch
Pool Type = Backup
RecyclePool = Scratch
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Use Duration = 2 days
Volume Retention = 14 days
}
Pool {
Name = Daily-Autoloader
Pool Type = Backup
Volume Retention = 14 days
Volume Use Duration = 2 days
RecyclePool = Scratch
}
And even though there are volumes in the scratch pool, e.g.:
Pool: Scratch
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| mediaid | volumename | volstatus | enabled | volbytes | volfiles |
volretention | recycle | slot | inchanger | mediatype | lastwritten |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| 13 | MJR258L3 | Full | 1 | 205,955,637,248 | 49 |
1,209,600 | 1 | 8 | 1 | LTO-3 | 2010-01-23 16:23:37 |
| 20 | MJR264L3 | Full | 1 | 202,673,155,072 | 49 |
1,209,600 | 1 | 3 | 1 | LTO-3 | 2010-01-21 05:12:25 |

1,209,600 | 1 | 1 | 1 | LTO-3 | 2010-01-23 16:35:31 |

1,209,600 | 1 | 6 | 1 | LTO-3 | 2010-01-20 05:13:19 |
| 58 | MJR290L3 | Used | 1 | 231,347,448,832 | 55 |
1,209,600 | 1 | 7 | 1 | LTO-3 | 2010-01-22 16:29:37 |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
Bacula does not pick them up for the weekly backup. The daily backups
work as expected. But all the weeklies fail:
Job xxx_Server.2010-02-14_06.10.36 waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
Storage: "Superloader-Drive" (/dev/nst0)
Pool: Woechentlich
Media type: LTO-3
What am I missing? Do I need a Recycle=yes in the Weekly pool? I suppose
not - at least according to the documentation, Bacula will always look
into the scratch pool for new volumes.
BTW: Bacula version is 2.2.5.
Thanks for any hints,
Tino.
