Hi all.
Bacula version: 5.0.0
I asked this question yesterday and have been reading the docs to find a
solution but have not been able to do so.
I only do file volume backups (no tapes) and I copy all the volumes to a remote
location. In order to sync them I look at the volume names and decide whether
or not to upload. i.e. if the volume does not exist in remote location, I
upload it. However I have found that bacula is re-using volume names. So
instead of creating a new name like CLIENT-INC102, it reuses this name. Below
is the config for the pool I am talking about:
Pool {
Name = "STR-Inc"
LabelFormat = "STRInc-"
Pool Type = "Backup"
Recycle = "yes"
Autoprune = "yes"
Volume Retention = 8 days
Maximum Volumes = 9
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
}
And here are the volumes on disk:
Jul 5 07:56
STRFull-0129
Aug 2 06:10
STRFull-0810
Aug 15 23:56
STRDiff-0138
Aug 22 23:54
STRDiff-0139

STRDiff-0133

Sep 12 23:50
STRDiff-0625
Sep 13 23:30
STRInc-0131
Sep 14 23:33
STRInc-0333
Sep 15 23:33
STRInc-0365
Sep 17 23:33
STRInc-0421
Sep 16 23:33
STRInc-0392
Sep 18 23:32
STRInc-0461
Sep 20 00:04
STRDiff-0144
Sep 20 23:28
STRInc-0490
How do I make it so that bacula will create a new volume name every time it
does a backup and not use existing volumes on disk.
If you need any more information please let me know.
Thanks
