Hi,
This past weekend, a weekly job decided it didn't want to use the
volumes that were available in the autochanger.
Consequently, bacula tried to load a tape that was in the catalog, but wasn't
present. Unfortunately, it tried to do
this repeatedly, logging the following set of logs every few seconds:
ausv01-sd JobId 350: Invalid slot=0 defined in catalog for Volume
"000020L4" on "Drive-1" (/dev/nst0). Manual load may
be required.
ausv01-sd JobId 350: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command.
ausv01-sd JobId 350: 3302 Autochanger "loaded? drive 0", result: nothing loaded.
ausv01-sd JobId 350: 3301 Issuing autochanger "loaded? drive 0" command.
ausv01-sd JobId 350: 3302 Autochanger "loaded? drive 0", result: nothing loaded.
ausv01-sd JobId 350: Warning: mount.c:227 Open device "Drive-1" (/dev/nst0)
Volume "000020L4" failed: ERR=dev.c:491
Unable to open device "Drive-1"
(/dev/nst0): ERR=No medium found
By Monday, there were > 1million log records there. I would expect it to
realise that the tape isn't available, report
that once, with reminders, and otherwise sit quietly waiting for operator
intervention to provide the tape it wanted.
It's done similar before but I've never quite nailed down the scenario (there
were some situations where the operator
hadn't run "update slots").
Has anyone else seen this behaviour? If so, is there a simple known fix?
Alternatively, any suggestions/guesses as to
why this might happen would be gratefully received, as I might then be able to
come up with some sort of fix.
Bacula version is 5.0.0.
Thanks,
