Hi Rudolph, I spent two days recently with the exact same problem trying to use one storage and on device for multiple clients and jobs. My conclusion was that the Storage Device can only keep one pool open at a time and therefore are you getting the Job XX wants Pool="Tuesday" but have Pool="Monday" since ther Device is reading the Monday pool on another Job.
We solved it by creating one Device {} in bacula-sd.conf for each job. /M -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: Rudolph Bott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Skickat: den 23 januari 2008 11:46 Till: bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net Ämne: [Bacula-users] update to 2.2.6: Job X wants Pool="X" but have Pool="Y" Hey list, on monday I updated to bacula 2.2.6 (from 1.3.38) and started off with a clean database. Apparently I didn't have to change a thing and was able to use the old config (~15-20 clients with nightly backups to File Storage). Everything went fine on Monday (using the Pool "Monday"), but yesterday the backup did not work at all - the SD storage status did output something like: Job XX wants Pool="Tuesday" but have Pool="Monday".. I know the setup might be a bit strange but it works (or rather: worked) this way quite fine for almost three years: There is one disk mounted for each day: /bacula/monday /bacula/tuesday /bacula/wednesday... Each folder/disk represents its own pool - volumes are automatically created/recycled with a max. size by bacula (5GB each, maximum of 46 Volumes) with the scheme monday-001, monday-002 and so on. The Bacula SD only has one Storage defined, namely /bacula/backup. This folder contains some hundred pre-created symlinks: lrwxrwxrwx 1 bacula bacula 16 Dec 10 2006 monday -> ../monday/monday lrwxrwxrwx 1 bacula bacula 21 Dec 8 2006 monday-0001 -> ../monday/monday-0001 lrwxrwxrwx 1 bacula bacula 21 Dec 8 2006 monday-0002 -> ../monday/monday-0002 lrwxrwxrwx 1 bacula bacula 21 Dec 8 2006 monday-0003 -> ../monday/monday-0003 lrwxrwxrwx 1 bacula bacula 21 Dec 8 2006 monday-0004 -> ../monday/monday-0004 lrwxrwxrwx 1 bacula bacula 21 Dec 8 2006 monday-0005 -> ../monday/monday-0005 lrwxrwxrwx 1 bacula bacula 21 Dec 8 2006 monday-0006 -> ../monday/monday-0006 lrwxrwxrwx 1 bacula bacula 21 Dec 8 2006 monday-0007 -> ../monday/monday-0007 [...] this is the SD definition: Device { Name = FileStorage Media Type = File Archive Device = /bacula/backup LabelMedia = yes; # lets Bacula label unlabeled media Random Access = yes; AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it RemovableMedia = no; AlwaysOpen = no; } these are the pools: # Default pool definition Pool { Name = Default Pool Type = Backup } Pool { Name = monday Pool Type = Backup Recycle = yes Auto Prune = yes Volume Retention = 6d Volume Use Duration = 23 hours Maximum Volume Bytes = 5368709120 Maximum Volumes = 46 Label Format = "montag-" } Pool { Name = tuesday PoolType = Backup Recycle = yes Auto Prune = yes Volume Retention = 6d Volume Use Duration = 23 hours Maximum Volume Bytes = 5368709120 Maximum Volumes = 46 Label Format = "dienstag-" } [and so on for monday, tuesday, wednesday etc.] the schedule definition is: Schedule { Name = "Daily" Run = Level=Full Pool=monday Storage=File Monday at 20:00 Run = Level=Full Pool=tuesday Storage=File Tuesday at 20:00 Run = Level=Full Pool=wednesday Storage=File Wednesday at 20:00 Run = Level=Full Pool=thursday Storage=File Thursday at 20:00 Run = Level=Full Pool=friday Storage=File Friday at 20:00 Run = Level=Full Pool=saturday Storage=File Saturday at 20:00 } the default job config is: JobDefs { Name = "DefaultJob" Type = Backup FileSet = "LFHS-V3-src" Level = Full Storage = File Messages = Standard Pool = Default Priority = 10 Prune Jobs = yes Prune Files = yes Prune Volumes = yes } A sample Job definition is: Job { Name = "somehost.com" JobDefs = "DefaultJob" Client = someclient.com Schedule = "Daily" Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/somehost.com.bsr" FileSet = "LFHS-V3-src" } Mit freundlichen Grüßen / with kind regards Rudolph Bott -- Megabit Informationstechnik GmbH Karstr.25 41068 Moenchengladbach Tel:02161/30898-0 Fax:-18 AG MG HRB 10141, GF: Dipl.-Ing.
