Helo Heitor, 

"Use Volume Once" is an explicitly non-recommended directive by Kern himself. 
You should use "Maximum Volume Jobs=1" in the pool resource. 

Thank You for the above change,and this means only one job will run in that 
pool?. 

Another way, if you want different backup jobs to ALWAYS write in different 
sets of volumes, is scheduling them to different pools. 

so instead of device we should maintain pools for all new backup jobs. Will the 
increase in number of pools will not be an another problem, like 50 pools for 
50 jobs. 


Regards, 
Muhasin

Hi, 


Hello, Muhasin, 

BQ_BEGIN
I have only one pool for all clients now. I have labelled client with job name, 
client name and jobid and for each job running a new volume will be created for 
it. I have set "use volume once" in the pool. 
BQ_END

"Use Volume Once" is an explicitly non-recommended directive by Kern himself. 
You should use "Maximum Volume Jobs=1" in the pool resource. 

BQ_BEGIN
In my view bacula should use volume created by a jobid, but here is my problem 
starts. I have 10 jobs at a time on the same pool and each jobs created with a 
jobid. Each jobid created a volume. But the contents are separated or 
distributed in all volumes. For example job with jobid "1" successfully use 
"vol1"and stores the data on it. Job id "2" and job id "3" creates "vol2" and 
"vol3" respectively but the contents of job id "2" stores in the "vol3" instead 
of "vol2".with contents of jobid "3". 

BQ_END


BQ_BEGIN

I have tweaked the configuration in different ways, and the only way i could 
solve the issue is using a seperate virtual drive for each job. It means if 
there is 50 jobs at a time, you should created 50 virtual devices. 

How to solve the issue by limiting virtual devices. I need the virtual device 
should run multiple jobs in it and each job should only write to its created 
volume rather than distributing the contents on one volume.
