Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula using one drive in a Vchanger

Hi, I will look into the "Prefer Mounted Volume" directive; I haven't looked into it before; it is possible that's what's causing the problem. I intended for each volume to only hold a single job. I do not want multiple backups to interleave within the same disk volume. But, I do want several jo

Hi Josh, I have upgraded to bacula 2.2.5 and I'm still having the same problems. It seems like drive-1 in the vchanger is never used. Have you ever seen it used, and if so, what kind of configuration do I need; I followed the instruction in the HowTo document (Rev 0.7.4 2006-12-12). I tried many
