Thanks Heitor,
I have changed configuration back to normal volumes (write to file and
not to folders with fileparts). I have limited max jobs parameter to 1.
I'm still puzzled with volume reuse:
a) I have limited maximum volumes to 6 on my clients weekly pool (dc1)
b) The label command was triggered a month ago (I'm not sure why). At
that time I have created another volume (dc1_weekly).
c) Today I'm trying to create a full backup to weekly pool but I'm again
getting error: "Cannot find any appendable volumes."
d) Label command works fine on other pools (I can create backup of dc1
client in monthly pool, but there is no problem with maximum volumes limit)
e) I have simulated this on another client (jhost05) with the same
configuration. It has created 7th volume (not sure why - I have limited
max volume to 6). At next backup it triggered label command (not sure
why - I expect that mediaid 475 is suitable to write to)
I have attached relevant part of configuration bellow.
Any idea why this is happening? What should I do to force bacula to
reuse my volumes?
Should I do something with existing volumes now that I have changed them
back to files instead of folders (probably it changed voltype from 14 to 1)?
Kind regards and happy new year. :)
