I don't see that from the code, but it might be bug. After it fails to find an existing appendable or purged volume, it prunes volumes in the pool. This deletes jobs and files older than the volume retention period. The only operations that explicitly prune jobs and files according to their retention periods are autoprune (that can run after a job) and the console's prune command. Running the director at debug level 200 might help to track it down. The output of "list jobmedia" and "llist volumes" (note llist, not list) at the start and just after the sd prints the "Cannot find any appendable volumes" message would be good too. __Martin > > > i'll attach the messages, maybe someone can help me with that; > > i don't really like to get an error message every couple days > > Quite understandable. > > The easy work-around, and the reason why I usually don't see that > problem, might be to simply set up your volumes and retention so that > you always have a pruned volume available. > > > > > Florian > > > > --- > > > > 31-Jan 21:00 erde-dir: Start Backup JobId 1108, > > Job=Cetus_Job.2006-01-31_21.00.00 > > 31-Jan 21:00 erde-dir: Max configured use duration exceeded.
