Hi All,

I am a newbie to Bacula.

We are piloting Bacula v 9.4.4 for my project and intend to use the VirtualFull 
backup scheme.

We have 20 number of  i-scsi disks  (disk1 through disk20) on Bacula SD server.
We have defined a storage group StorageGroup consolidating the abovementioned 
disks defined as 20 Devices, each Device configured to refer to each of the 
scsi disk.
e.g. Device1 --> disk1, Device2 --> disk2 ..and so on.

Things went fine with the initial full backups of various clients 
simultaneously. Bacula  picked up the next available device and created volumes 
under the selected Device's disk.
Then we took incremental backups. Again Bacula wrote the incremental volumes on 
the selected Device's disk.

However when we tried to do a VirtualFull job, Bacula again tried to use the 
next available drive, lets say Device1(disk1) and tried to read the constituent 
volumes (previous full + incremental )
However the constituent  volumes had been created through a different Device, 
lets say disk7. So Bacula reported that the candidate volume is not found under 
the current job's Device (disk1).

Question is : In case of VirtualFull job;  how to tell Bacula to locate/read 
the constituent volumes through the Device (disk) where they were originally 
created.

Thanks in advance,

Yateen Bhagat
