[Bacula-users] Job is waiting for a mount request
Hi, I am a newbie to Bacula. I tried to find out what is happening in the list and could not get right answer. Probably I am not searching with right question or looking at right place.

I had used unmount.

If you ever use umount then the next volume that bacula will want you will have to mount it since umount takes the storage device out of bacula's control. If you just want to unload a volume without bacula giving up control on the storage device use the release command instead.

I don't think I have used unmount after removing old state files and nuking all data in sql database.

John, Please accept my apologies. It was disk space issue after all. The server had 1.7T and our administrator mounted the backup partition in wrong path. I was stupid enough not to check the mount points. Tons of thanks for your valuable time and pointing me to right direction. I am glad to be part of wonderful Bacula community.
