Hi,
Situation:
----------
The backup strategy is doing a yearly Full, monthly Diff and daily Incr.
This worked well over years with Bacula 1.x and 2.x.
Some months ago, I upgraded SD and DIR from Bacula 2.2.8 to 5.0.1
The Diff/Incr jobs continued to do well.
But now, while doing a Full for the first time under 5.0.1,
I got errors (and can reproduce them)
Hardware is two LTO-5 drives with a changer and a lot of tapes.
MaximumSpoolSize = 1024 GB
MaximumJobSpoolSize = 32 GB
What's up?
----------
I've 6 bigger jobs (TB size each) in the same pool and start them
at the same time. They're spooling and despooling alternately
to the same tape(s) as expected.
Tape AD0018L5 is written by the 6 jobs and, when full,
automatically replaced by next free tape AD0016L5. The
latter one is also written by the 6 jobs...
Then, one of the 6 jobs fails (and is rescheduled):
Committing spooled data to Volume "AD0016L5". Despooling 22,147,812,023 bytes
...
Fseek on attributes file failed: ERR=No space left on device
...
Last Volume Bytes: 1,283,646,163,968 (1.283 TB)
Really, the tape isn't full! The other 5 jobs (and this one
after being rescheduled) continue to write that tape AD0016L5
which by now has 1,633,895,424,000 Bytes written and is still
in Append state.
Question
--------
What may be the cause for that "ERR=No space left on device"
Same configuration worked well with Bacula <= 2.2.8 and LTO-3
(with lots more full tapes and changes during a Full session
than today when filling LTO-5)
