Not related, but what most likely happened is that it cannot find the
volume you deleted and bareos had plans to write into it. Even though it
was yet unused, the record of that media was in the DB. (I am speculating
here based on what you describe)
The easiest option is to create a volume with the same name.
Do a "status storage" in bconsole, then select the storage name and it most
likely will tell you what the storage daemon is expecting to write to.
Create a volume in that pool with the same name.
If you deleted volumes, please make sure you also delete volumes from your
DB by issuing:
"delete volume" in bconsole.
