Hello Phil,
I have not yet figured out what is going wrong here, or what triggered
Bacula to think it is trying to use a Volume directly from the Scratch
pool. I am going to look at the code in more detail to see if I can
find the problem. In any case, I am planning to remove the code as in
my view it appears more likely to create problems rather than solve
them. The only thing that I see that is related to the Scratch pool is
the Recycle pool so I am going to look at the code from that stand
point, but recycling into the Scratch pool is quite OK to do.
You should not need to directly reference the Scratch pool as you ask
below.
Would you mind attaching your Director's Job and Restore Resources and a
copy of any resource that it points to? I suspect that the normal
mechanism of setting up to run a job finds a Pool to be used for a
"backup" job even though in this case it is a restore job, and perhaps
somewhere along the line, the Pool is marked to be Scratch. Just to
repeat, even if a reference to the Scratch pool happens, this code
causes Bacula to malfunction.
Best regards,
Kern
