Hi Giuseppe,
I think there is a misunderstanding here. You are talking about two
different jobs. From your first post, you talked about the
Job=Fs02Home.2014-10-13_21.00.00_33
and this last post you are talking about Job=MccwHome.2014-10-13_21.00.
00_34.
13-Oct 21:00 bl13-dir JobId 1761: Start Backup JobId 1761,
Job=Fs02Home.2014-10-13_21.00.00_33
13-Oct 21:00 bl13-dir JobId 1762: Start Backup JobId 1762,
Job=MccwHome.2014-10-13_21.00.00_34
Maybe there is a previous error than these ones. I think that because of
your "volume use duration = 7 days", bacula used the same volume for backup
up these two jobs once, than one week later the volume was still for append
(because of your 7 days volume use duration) and maybe bacula could run one
of the two backup jobs on this same volume. I mean only one job and the
other job was written in the other volume. This is confusing, but the
problems begans before these two errors commented about you on your posts.
Bacula is doing it correctly and you should take care about your volume use
duration configuration.
If I am correct about what you want, you have two volumes in a pool that
you want to backup your jobs with a retention time of a week. You want
bacula be using one of the two volumes for a week and change it to the
other volume in the next week.
You just have to put in hours your volume use duration to a time less than
7 days to avoid what I commented above. Maybe 6 days and 22 hours (166
hours) should be fine. It should be a time just before the next scheduled
job run. From your first post, your job started at 21 h one day and
finished 12:58 the next day. So you have to set a time more than 6 days and
14 hours.
About Bacula losting your volume slot number in catalog, this could happen
for many reasons. If you normally remove tapes from magazines or move them
between slots. If you do that, you can configure an admin job to do an
update slots frequently and your catalog will be always updated with the
volumes and its slots.
Regards,
Ana
