Hi,
I have a set of pools for full daily backups - Monday to Friday. Each
pool has exacly one tape in it, and is intended to be recycled and
used the next weekday. I am using a 6 day volume retention, with
recycle=yes and recycle current volume = yes to try to achieve this,
to no avail.
The volume, for example Friday, shows up before the friday backup run
in append state, at which point the director tries to append a full
backup to it, rather than to purge it and recycle. The tape fills up,
and then the director starts complaining that it cant find any
appendable volumes.
Relevant configs below. Any suggestions on how to recycle in this
manner? Bacula version 2.1.18.
thanks,
Bradley

waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:
Storage: "VXA-2" (/dev/nst0)
Pool: Friday
Media type: VXA-2
Pool {
Name = Friday
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = yes
Volume Retention = 6d
Maximum Volumes = 1
Recycle = yes
Recycle Current Volume = yes
}
