Is it possible that the tape Bacula requests is not in the autochanger? You should have an operator mail requesting a certain tape. Make sure you insert a tape from the pool required, and make sure you inform Bacula of the tape change, i.e. issue an 'update slots' command. > > So if I upgrade to 1.39.26, am I going to have to dump my database and > then import it back in?

You won't lose any backups when you follow the documented upgrade path: Install new Bacula version, run catalog upgrade script, start Bacula, try if everythin works, if it doesn't restore your old version, your catalog, and report a bug. BTW: I would not recommend 1.39 for production use yet as I see some issues I find hard to analyze. For example, the DIR seems to have a serious memory leak in certain situations, and the SD sometimes blocks waiting for jobs tapes without any possible way of getting it to continue... > > Is there an upgrade from 38 to 39 doc? I looked and couldn't find one. The ReleaseNotes file, and IIRC there is some documentation of the catalog upgrade scripts.
