There can be more than one device. However, only one media volume can be "mounted" in a device. In the case of file storage, that media volume is a normal file. In other words, if there is only one device, then only one volume file at a time can be written. And if MaximumVolumeJobs=1, then only one job can write to that volume file. > So how do I configure such an autochange and why has the generated > backup file the wrong job name It has been suggested that the wrong job name is a bug. I'm not familiar with that. The autochanger resource is documented at http://www.bacula.org/5.2.x-manuals/en/main/main/Autochanger_Resource.html. Bacula comes with an autochanger script named disk-changer that may be used to implement an autochanger. There is also vchanger (sourceforge.net/projects/vchanger/), designed primarily for removable disk storage, but also works for fixed disk. > > "R33_2012-01-13_10h33m" should be "R25_2012-01-13_10h33m" > > 2012-01-16 10:30:00 backup-dir JobId 37: Start Backup JobId 37, > Job=R25.2012-01-16_10.30.00_29 > 2012-01-16 10:30:00 backup-dir JobId 37: Using Device "FileStorage" > 2012-01-16 10:30:01 backup-sd JobId 37: Labeled new Volume > "R33_2012-01-13_10h33m" on device "FileStorage" (/media/storage). > 2012-01-16 10:30:01 backup-sd JobId 37: Wrote label to prelabeled > Volume "R33_2012-01-13_10h33m" on device "FileStorage" (/media/storage) > 2012-01-16 10:30:01 backup-dir JobId 37: Max Volume jobs exceeded. > Marking Volume "R33_2012-01-13_10h33m" as Used. > 2012-01-16 10:30:09 r25-fd JobId 37: Generate VSS snapshots. > Driver="VSS Vista", Drive(s)="CE" > >> On 1/16/2012 4:51 AM, Moritz Herrmann wrote: >>> Hello, >>> >>> I'm starting to implement a bacula environment. >>> >>> Now I have a problem with two jobs started at the same time.
