Hi List When a tape is missed for one of our weekday sets the next evening the previous days, missed, tape is still requested even though the job should have expired. I have used Volume Use Duration = 22h see below.
Here is an extract of my bacula-dir.conf Director { # define myself Name = backup-dir DIRport = 9101 # where we listen for UA connections QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql" WorkingDirectory = "/var/bacula/working" PidDirectory = "/var/run" Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1 Password = "" # Console password Messages = Daemon } Job { Name = "webserver" Type = Backup Level = Full # default Client = webserver FileSet = "webserver" Storage = LTO-2 # Set here instead of pool defs Pool = Default RunBeforeJob = "/etc/bacula/scripts/runbefore.sh" Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/webserver.bsr" Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" Messages = Standard Priority = 7 Max Start Delay = 22h # Time to cancel job after scheduled start time Max Run Time = 1h 30m # Max lenght of time for a job to run } FileSet { Name = "webserver" Include { Options { signature = MD5 } File = /var/www File = /var/lib/mysql } Exclude { File = /var/www/test } } Schedule { Name = "WeeklyCycle" Run = Level=Full Pool=Monday Monday at 23:05 Run = Level=Full Pool=Tuesday Tuesday at 23:05 Run = Level=Full Pool=Wednesday Wednesday at 23:05 Run = Level=Full Pool=Thursday Thursday at 23:05 #Run = Level=Full Pool=Thursday Thursday at 18:28 Run = Level=Full Pool=Weekend Friday at 23:05 } Client { Name = webserver Address = webserver.omii.ac.uk FDPort = 9102 Catalog = MyCatalog Password = "" # password for FileDaemon File Retention = 30 days # 30 days Job Retention = 6 months # six months AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired Jobs/Files } Storage { Name = LTO-2 # Do not use "localhost" here Address = backup.host.ac.uk # N.B.
