The problem had nothing to do with the scratch pool. That was just
coincidence because this pool was in the job definition for the copy job.
My first thought was to simply write any pool with a "Next Pool" directive
in the job definition and overwrite this in the schedule. That worked fine
for one job. But then I tested with two jobs. The first job kinda worked
in that it wanted to use the right pools but the second job still wanted
to use the pool defined in the job resource. That seems buggy (?).
The only solution I could come up with was to define a job for every pool
and a new schedule for each of these jobs. I guess this would work (will
test later when I wrote the configs) but that seems like an aweful lot of
duplicated text in the files and is probably hard to maintain.
Is noone using backups on the server and copying them to different pools?
How do you do it? I'm glad for any ideas.
Thanks, Chris

copy jobs and scratch pools
Hi,
I'm having a problem copying jobs. I labeled a new volume in the pool
"DailyScratch" with the label command. Then I ran a job using the pool
"ThursdayOD". As expected, bacula took the volume from the Scratch Pool
and moved it to the other pool. Backup ran without errors, "list volumes"
shows that the volume is in the "ThursdayOD" pool.
But now when I start the copyjob I just get an error:
06-Mai 13:05 bacula-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: No Next Pool specification
found in Pool "DailyScratch".
It wouldn't make much sense to define the Next Pool in the Scratch Pool as
that will be used by several pools. I would have expected bacula to use
the Next Pool directive from the "ThursdayOD" configuration as that is
where the volume is in. Is this a bug or am I missing something?
Relevant configuration:
JobDefs {
Name = "CopyDefault"
Type = Copy
Messages = Standard
Storage = "usbchanger2"
Client = None
FileSet = None
Selection Type = PoolUncopiedJobs
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
SpoolData = No
Allow Duplicate Jobs = Yes
Cancel Queued Duplicates = No
Cancel Running Duplicates = No
Priority = 11
}
Pool {
Name = DailyScratch
Pool Type = Backup
}
Pool {
Name = Thursday
Pool Type = Backup
Storage = usbchanger1
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 5 days
Maximum Volume Bytes = 4608M
}
Pool {
Name = ThursdayOD
Pool Type = Backup
Storage = File
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 12 hours
Maximum Volume Bytes = 4608M
ScratchPool = DailyScratch
Recycle Pool = DailyScratch
NextPool = Thursday
}
Chris
