Hello,
I noticed that Bacula seems to be writing to tapes in a way that I don't
understand. If there are two tapes in an autochanger and they are in the
same pool, bacula writes to them both. I would expect it to fill a tape and
then start on the next one.
For example, we have:
Pool: Tape
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes | VolFiles |
VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten
|
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| 16 | EPW680L3 | Full | 1 | 682,622,760,960 | 198
| 31,536,000 | 0 | 0 | 0 | LTO-3 | 2014-11-15
11:45:33 |
| 17 | EPW681L3 | Append | 1 | 75,587,355,648 | 22
| 31,536,000 | 0 | 7 | 1 | LTO-3 | 2014-11-18
09:40:27 |
| 23 | EPW682L3 | Append | 1 | 194,428,523,520 | 56
| 31,536,000 | 0 | 6 | 1 | LTO-3 | 2014-11-23
00:03:19 |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+-----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
If the tape could hold up to 680 G or so, why has it written 75G to one
Appendable tape, and 194G to the other?
Thanks.
