Howdy, If I have a multi LTO4 tape backup running that will require swapping tapes (i.e. it will use all of the tapes in the autochanger and require a few more), is there any way during the job for the operator to tell Bacula to pause once it finishes filling the current tape?
The idea, I know I'm going to need to swap out / in two more tapes AND I know that the existing tapes won't fill up until 3 AM, why not let it finish writing the first 2 tapes, pause it, swap the first 2 tapes with new tapes, label them, mount the 3rd tape and let the job resume. The alternative, the backup will be idle from 3 AM until the next work day waiting for the operator to perform the swap. Perhaps I'm thinking about this all wrong. Thanks for any insight / tips.
