Josh,

Permissions do look to be accurate. SELinux is disabled on this server.

Hello all,

I recently inherited a Bacula installation (version 7.0.5, running on a CentOS 
6 server), but have no experience with Bacula. Full backups go to tape, with 
incremental backups going to a local disk on the Bacula server. The tape 
backups have so far been (mostly) successful. However, the incremental backups 
have been having consistent problems that I'm really not sure what to do to 
troubleshoot.

The backups will frequently get stuck with this showing up when I do "status 
storage":

Device "BaremetalIncrStorage" (/vol-back2/BaremetalIncr) is not open.
    Device is BLOCKED waiting for mount of volume "BareIncr-34198",
       Pool:        BareIncrWeekly
       Media type:  File

The first thing to check is that the user that bacula-sd runs as, likely 
bacula:tape, has write permission on /vol-back2/BaremetalIncr. Keep in mind 
that Centos 6 by default has SELinux enabled and the security context must also 
allow bacula-sd to write.
