Did not get any nibbles on this embedded in my "2 questions" email, so I'll split it out on its own.
How do I deal with cleaning tapes in a jukebox? I'd like the jukebox to know it is a cleaning tape, and ideally schedule regular cleanings. I have a cleaning tape with this barcode - 000100L4 So I'm poking around to try to figure out how to deal with it and I see "Cleaning Prefix". I don't have a barcode with a special prefix on that tape (though I can look to see whether I have one if that simplifies things), but this page suggests I can just put the whole barcode into the pool definition and be done http://www.bacula.org/en/dev-manual/main/main/Autochanger_Resource.html So I did that but I"m not sure how to tell whether or not that did anything (I did restart services after adding it) Pool { Name = Default Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes # Bacula can automatically recycle Volumes AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes Volume Retention = 31 days Purge Oldest Volume = yes Maximum Volumes = 24 JobRetention = 90 days FileRetention = 60 days CleaningPrefix = 000100L4 } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
