Did you fix the retention period yet? If it's immediately reusing the first volume, it probably means your retention is too short. If you're trying to use these volumes in daily rotation, then the volume use duration should be set so that it expires just before the next day's backup (23 hours being a good number for that), and your retention period needs to be set such that the first volume becomes available again just after the last volume is used (for a ten-day rotation, nine days should be right). Make sure that after you update the Pool resource, you FIRST update the Pool from the resource, THEN update ALL of the Volumes from the Pool. -- Phil Stracchino, CDK#2 DoD#299792458 ICBM: 43.5607, -71.355 ala...@caerllewys.net ala...@metrocast.net p...@co.ordinate.org Renaissance Man, Unix ronin, Perl hacker, Free Stater It's not the years, it's the mileage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
