I would like to use the Virtual Full job in bareos to combine a full backup
with a set of differentials / incrementals to make a new full backup. To do
this, I made a new pool

Pool {
  Name = VFull
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Label Format = "VFull-"
  Storage = Brick01Storage
}

Then, I added this pool as the 'Next Pool' to each of the other pools (Next
Pool = VFull) to allow migration. When I try to run my backup job and
change the backup level to 'Virtual Full', the job sits there 'waiting on
max Storage jobs'.

    13 Virtual  backupfrackib01gfssource.2015-09-30_14.41.49_08 is waiting
on max Storage jobs

There is only one mention of this status in the bareos manual: where one
job was waiting on another job to finish because it was using the storage
resource. However, I have no other jobs running. Just for kicks, I started
up an incremental backup while the virtual full backup was waiting. The
incremental ran fine, but the virtual full is still waiting.

Could anyone uses virtual full please explain what the cause of this
message is and how to get my virtual full backup working?

Thanks,
Patrick
