I have several tape drives that indicate they are being used by jobs that have been long terminated. Without stopping/restarting bacula, is there a command that might get the storage daemon to recognize that the drives can be used for other jobs? The commands used so far: status storage=mychanger
Shows tape drives 1,4,&5 in use by old jobs, however there are no tapes in these drives. One long running active job is using drive 0 and is the reason I do not want to stop/restart bacula. release storage=mychanger drive=4 Says it's already released. OK, so I mount the tape that bacula says the old job is using which succeeds. I try releasing it again. This time it says that it's busy with 1 writer. cancel jobid=12345 It says there is no jobid 12345. I have had this situation before, but not with 3 drives and it is causing my nightly backups to take much longer to complete everything. Suggestions?
