Looking in the bacula logs to see why they are being marked as used ("Marking Volume "..." as Used" messages) may give a clue. __Martin > On Mon, 29 Oct 2018 10:24:35 -0500, Brendan Martin said: > > Several months ago, I got copy jobs set up and working.  Sizes, counts, > and retention set

[Bacula-users] Maximum Volume Jobs and Copy Pools

2018-10-29 Thread Brendan Martin
Several months ago, I got copy jobs set up and working.  Sizes, counts, and retention settings were all identical to the corresponding primary pools when I started.  After a while, I began seeing copy jobs waiting for appendable volumes.  I began manually marking the oldest volume per pool for recy

Yes, using separate pools would prevent media sharing. You could also try setting Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1 in the Device directive in the Storage Daemon. See: http://www.bacula.org/7.0.x-manuals/en/main/Storage_Daemon_Configuratio.html#SECTION00173 http://www.bacula.org/7.0.x-

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes I have set maximum Jobs to 3. I have two drives in one Library witch can (must!) handle two jobs at a time so I set the maximum Job for the Storage Daemon/Resource since I though that’s the way to go - Actually I would love to spread one job over two drives but I h

It looks like you have Maximum Concurrent Jobs set to > 1, so you have jobs interleaving on the volumes because they specify the same pool. I don't know how that is supposed to interact with Maximum Volume Jobs = 1, but it looks like it doesn't work. Did you expect it to do something specific? _

Hi all, we startet using Bacula with a Neo400 ( incl. 2 LTO6 Drives ) for backup. Although we have quit big amounts of data to backup the job should be pretty simple since mostly it just needs to copy the files to tapes for an off-site backup. Since we are using a zfs as file system bacula h

hello i'm little beginner with bacula and i've got a comprehension problem. Here is the configuration file for one client : http://pastebin.fr/10723. For me and according to this configuration file (Maximum Volume Jobs = 1), each incremental backup should be in one volume until 21 days of retentio

2009-10-27 Thread Brian Debelius
I think I would like to change my disk pool to have a Maximum Volume Jobs = 1 so that there is only one job per file. My thought is that it would lead to more efficient recycling. I believe if I do this then this will not allow job concurrency. Is there a way to do have one job per file, and
