Bacula will use volumes with VolStatus = Recycle before those will VolStatus = Purged. Maybe that is the reason? Also, does your Storage definition in the bacula-dir.conf contain autochanger = yes? If so, what is the value of the InChanger field in the volumes that it has been recycling? __Martin _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
