Hi,
Im using disk based volumes. Each client has it's own pool:
Pool {
Name = black
Maximum volumes = 1
Pool Type = Backup
Maximum Volume Jobs = 1
Volume Retention = 60 days
Purge Oldest Volume = yes
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Label Format = "b
Hello people,
I have a problem with bacula 1.38.11 ignoring retention periods and
reusing the same volumes over and over again. I've checked the database,
volume retention periods have the correct values (the same as configs).
Configuration follows:
Pools:
Maximum volumes = 0 #unlimited
Maximu
Update:
i've found that VolStatus field in Media table has it's value set to
'Recycle'. That's why bacula is reusing the volumes.
However, the question remains: why the hell this field is set to Recycle
when recycle is disabled ?

Thanks for your reply Ryan.
I am aware that volume settings are read when volume is created. Current
volumes, however, were written after the settings were changed to their
current values, so database should contain current settings, right?
Here's the output of "update" command:

I would like to add, that this problem might be solved by using a
'windows symlink' aka junction. Please note that i haven't tested that
myself, just an idea.

Sorry, forgot to mention that this only works on NTFS v5 filesystems.
But this probably shouldn't be a problem as v5 (also known as v3, dont
ask me why) was shipped with windows 2k.

Hello,
I'm using bacula in a D2D2D backup scenario (disk 2 disk 2 disk), files
in storage daemon are overwritten every night, but they are kept in
external hard drives for a few weeks-months.
Since bootstrap files are overwritten every night as well, it's probably
a good idea to save them to ex
Hello,
I'm running bacula-fds (1.38.11) on a few W2k3 computers, on one of them
the file daemon service is constantly crashing.
I saw a similar problem discussed about a month ago, apparently the
problem there was fd running on non Local System account. This is not my
case, bacula-fd runs under
Hi,
As a matter of fact, I am using the "restart service" feature microsoft
kindly provided us ( I guess they saw the problems coming :-) ).
However, this doesnt seem to help much. My guess now is that the service
closes with exit code 0, so windows think that everything is the way it
should be

Actually, i didn't. It never crossed my mind, that this might be a

3. start the service again.

As someone suggested, you might try using different firmware. There are
a lot of options for these linksyses. DD-WRT is definitely one of them
but I personally prefer "tomato".

Hi,
there are two web based tools that allow you to _get info_ about the
backups from the database.
bacula web: http://www.bacula.org/bacula-web/bacula-web.html
and
webacula: https://sourceforge.net/projects/webacula
The first one is written in php, i know that since im using it.

Does the file gets created ? What is its size?
I'd make sure that:
* There is enough free space on the disk
* Bacula sd can write to that directory
