and Bacula
is supposed to append data at the end of one of those volumes at each job
execution. Is it possible to let Bacula autolabel disk files and force it
to create a new volume for each job instead? That way Bacula would ask for
the correct pool *before* trying to mount it, right?

The problem is that Bacula does not automatically mount those volumes. It
asks for Backup1-0001 but when I plug in the correct disk, it keeps asking
for Backup1-0001 ("waiting for a mount request"). If I enter bconsole and
manually mount it, the backup proce

Thanks in advance,

Hello *,
I have a bacula 2.0.3 doing backups on DVD. It happens that bacula asks for a
new DVD on friday at 4pm or so, no one sees the request until the next
monday, but meanwhile the watchdog kills the SD because of a timeout (more
precisely it has killed the SD at 00:39am of the night between

Thanks for the reply. Can you point me to those messages in the archives? The
SF seach serve
p desk service, but just out of curiousity: it's that no one
knows what to reply, or it's that the reply would be RTFM or the like but
everyone thinks my question isn't even worth that kind of reply?
Sorry for insisting, but I have no clue about how to search that in the docs.

dollars or to risk data loss, well, they often choose to risk data
loss hoping it won't actually happen to them... in such cases (not uncommon)
a DVD backup it's better than no backup at all. No matter how good the
reasons you give them to buy a serious backup solution are.

I'd like configure Bacula so that it turns off the computer after the SD has
finished writing the backup. I'm running Debian GNU/Linux and Bacula 2.0.3.
Is there a way to do that?

Do you mean the label command available in bconsole? I've not tried that
because it's being described as "label a tape", so I've assumed it's of no
use

Hello *,
I plan to install Bacula on a fileserver which currently lacks a backup
solution and I wonder if there are any DVD autoloaders around that I can use
with bacula.
I've googled around but i've manged to find only boxed solutions that include
backup software also, nothing like a bare dvd
