Hello everybody,
I'm new to Bacula, and i'm having a problem using different storages in a
same pool.
I have two HP Tape Libraries installed on the Storage (LibHP08 and
LibHP09), i tried to configure some jobs to access both libraries, but I'm
having some trouble with bacula accessing the wrong library.
For example, bacula tries to access volume "G00022L5" on slot 20 at
LibHP08, but it reaches the volume "H00011L5" on slot 20 at LibHP09.
Basically, it tries to get a tape on the correct slot, but in the wrong
Library. It Generates the Following error:
LibHP 3307 Issuing autochanger "unload slot 20, drive 1" command.
Warning: Director wanted Volume "G00022L5".
Current Volume "H00011L5" not acceptable because:
1998 Volume "H00011L5" catalog status is Append, not in Pool.
Then, bacula unloads the drive, tries to find the correct tape, but loads
the wrong one, generates the error again, and so on.
The job never completes, since it doesn't find the correct tape.
Some of my Pools:
Pool {
Name = machine-Pool-Weekly
Pool Type = Backup
Storage = LibHP08, LibHP09
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 34 days
}
Pool {
Name = machine-Pool-Monthly
Pool Type = Backup
Storage = LibHP08, LibHP09
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 1825 days
}

Storage config:
Storage {
Name = LibHP08
Address = sd-host
SDPort = 9103
Password = "myPassword"
Device = LibHP08_Changer
Media Type = LTO-5
Autochanger = yes
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4
}
Storage {
Name = LibHP09
Address = sd-host
SDPort = 9103
Password = "myPassword"
Device = LibHP09_Changer
Media Type = LTO-5
Autochanger = yes
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4
}
At bconsole, i executed the following:
update slots
There was some tapes at the wrong place, it updated the catalog, but the
error persists.
I'm Currently using Bacula v5.2.12, I've installed the Director and the
Storage on different machines, both of them communicating with no problems
Any ideas?
I also created a question at Serverfault:

Thanks in advance!
