Hello,
Are the tapes in two different pools? Medias 1-5 are in one pool and medias
11-27 in another one? Bacula do not mount tapes from different pools for a
single job. When you specify the pool to be used by the job, in the job or
schedule resources, you just specify one pool there.
slots 1-5 have labeled tapes, in a pool labelled PH0018L4 - PH0022L4,
media id=1-5
slots 6-22 have labeled tapes, in pool labelled PH0001L4-PH0017L4, media
id=11-27
and the pool also has 5 labeled tapes out of unit PH0023L4-PH0027L4, media
id=6-10
