The output of "list volumes pool=Archive" might show something.  In
particular, what is the volstatus of these volumes?  It must be Used or Full
to allow recycling.

You could try the purge volume command.

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes

2020-07-03 Thread Greg Woods

I am getting this error when running copy jobs. I have an "ARCHIVE-ALL" job
that searches for any client backup jobs that terminated normally and have
not yet been copied from online to archive backups, and runs copy jobs for
each. I have been using this system for 7 years now, and it has worked well
until today.

Here's the Pool definitions (File is the online pool, and Archive is a
vchanger with 6 removable disks as magazines):

Pool {
  Name = File
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes   # Bacula can automatically recycle
Volumes
  AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
  Volume Retention = 365 days # 1 year
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 50G # Limit Volume size to something
reasonable
  Maximum Volumes = 245# Limit number of Volumes in Pool
  Storage = BKUP
  Next Pool = Archive # Where to copy/migrate to
}
Pool {
  Name = Archive
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes   # Bacula can automatically recycle
Volumes
  AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
  Volume Retention = 365 days # one year
  Maximum Volume Bytes = 50G # Limit Volume size to something
reasonable
  Maximum Volumes = 136# Limit number of Volumes in Pool
  Storage = ARCH
}

As you can see, the volume retention in the Archive pool is set to 365
days., and Recycle is set to yes, which means  (if I understand this
correctly) that any volume that hasn't been written to in more than a year
should be available to recycle. So why is it suddenly telling me that there
are no appendable volumes after 7 years of running this configuration?

All of my client definitions look like this:

Client {
  Name = "myhost"
  Address = myhost.my.domain
  Catalog = "My Catalog" # there is only one
  Password = "big secret"
  File Retention = 365 days
  Job Retention = 365 days
}

Did I miss something? There are definitely some volumes in  the Archive
pool that have not been written to in more than a year; shouldn't those be
available for recycling?

Lastly, what command would I use to let Bacula know that a given volume can
be made available? Eventually I have to solve my configuration issue, but
for now I'd like to just mark some old volumes as available manually so
that my copy jobs can continue.

Thanks for any pointers,
--Greg

I deleted the volume with VolStatus='Recycle' and then all problems was 
solved.

Everything running fine now. Case closed.

Re: [Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes - but has plenty of unused volumes

2014-09-23 Thread Hans Schou

Hi

Just for the record.

I can see my database is out of sync with the volume files. I have 
"orphan" volume files - like the file is there but not in db or the 
information are different. So my first step is to run bscan on all 1500 
volumes which may take something around 30 hours.

Case closed for now and thanks for help.

Everything looks right, but I'm still not sure if your volume automatic
recycling is working for SanFullPool yet (probably not), but you have
another jobs for another pool where recycling is working: "Recycled volume

Mr. Hans,

This is pretty obvious but it's good to make sure: 1. Are you submitting
jobs to the same pool that you have the appendable volumes? 2. Do you have
Appendable volumes in this pool?

This message concerns another kind of retention that just affect Bacula
Catalog Indexes. Don't confuse it with the volume retention.

Anyhow, "list media pool=pool_name" output and the full job log are
necessary to provide a diagnosis.

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes - but has plenty of unused volumes

2014-09-22 Thread Hans Schou

Hi

bacula Version: 7.0.4

I get this message "Cannot find any appendable volumes" in my file based 
storage. After adding a label and running a job it writes:

22-Sep 14:27 bohr-dir JobId 93031: Begin pruning Jobs older than 6 months .
22-Sep 14:27 bohr-dir JobId 93031: No Jobs found to prune.
22-Sep 14:27 bohr-dir JobId 93031: Begin pruning Files.
22-Sep 14:27 bohr-dir JobId 93031: No Files found to prune.

(why does it says 6 months?)

In the Pool I have:

Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Maximum Volume Bytes = 5368709120
Volume Retention = 2 weeks
Maximum Volumes = 1520
#Recycle Oldest Volume = yes
#Action On Purge = Truncate

I tried to add the last two options but it did not change anything.

I have also manually tried to prune, purge and delete unused volumes 
without success.

When I look for volumes whic should not be in use I have plenty:
# mysql bacula -e "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Media WHERE PoolId=3 AND MediaId 
NOT IN (SELECT MediaId FROM JobMedia);"
+--+
| COUNT(*) |
+--+
| 328 |
+--+
Is that query wrong?

I am beginning to have too little disk space left so I cannot just keep 
adding volumes.

Any help much appreciated.

That was the problem! I did have everything in my configuration as I 
expected it to be - except i forgot autolabelling on the default pool. 
I've been able to fully test all I wanted to, I've got my default job, 
and I've run jobs across all my clients, I've tried to overload it, it 
just keeps on queuing the jobs, and running them very nice! Thank you

Sorry if you've already posted it and I missed it, but what's that section
of your SD config look like?  Does the user (likely 'bacula') that the SD is
running as have rw access to the path given in your File section, and the
path exists?

There are no volumes here, this is a fresh setup still testing - and 
I'll be darned if I'm using 5000G and didn't notice!

I had the same message and I had to repair some mysql tables to fix it!

I thought the tables were 'Media' and 'JobMedia'

Kind regards,

I'm going to guess it's this Pool.  I'm also going to guess that you have
reached 100 volumes in this pool.  Please confirm

I see no need for a scratch pool if you're backing up to disk.

2011-01-04 Thread Kleber Leal

What pool your jobs are writing?
You enabled autolabel on File pool. Your jobs are trying write on it?

Verify your config files. By default (no config), the job get JobDefs
definition and write on Default pool. Your default pool has not autolabeling
enabled. Try change it to File pool overriding config or editing your
JobDefs.conf.

Verify too if you really has not volumes in append status.
You can verify your pools and volumes with list command (below):
list volumes

Try this and post results.

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes - But auto labeling is enabled?

2011-01-03 Thread Mister IT Guru

I am at a loss as to why this can occur, when I've configured automatic 
labellings. I get this error emailed to me when jobs are trying to run

Cannot find any appendable volumes

It's my understanding that this happens when there are no tapes 
available, but I have disk based storage. Any hints and tips would be 
appreciated, I can attach any requested configs.

Using /dev/st0 is risky.  You should use /dev/nst0 to prevent the tape from
rewinding unexpectedly and then overwriting the label.

Try setting debug level 200 in the Director:

setdebug director level=200 trace=1

Then get Bacula to recheck the volume to use (probably unmount followed by
mount will do this).  The trace file from the working directory might give
more clues about what it is trying to find.

Which parts of the config were affected by the upper case letter problem?
AFAIK, all of the keywords are case-insensitive but the names of things
(pools, clients, mediatypes etc) are case-sensitive.

This is probable with B002. With B001, I think I just did prune.

Both B001 and B002 are in the changer. I tried loading each of 
them in the drive, and after each time running the mount command in 
bacula, but I just keep getting the message that there are no appendable 
volumes.

Full backups seems to work correctly even from schedule.
Incremental backups doesn't works.

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes.

2010-06-16 Thread Gandalf Corvotempesta

Hello,
i'm new to Bacula and I'm having some trouble.

If i'll manually run a backup from bconsole, that
backup will be completed correctly.

But if i'll wait for the scheduled backup, that backup
will abort with the following error:

Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:
Storage:
"FileStorage-mycomputer" (/var/bacula/backups/clients/mycomputer)
Pool: Inc-Pool
Media type:   File-mycomputer



This is my director configuration, for each client:

Job {
  Name = "client-mycomputer"
  Client = mycomputer-fd
  JobDefs = "JobPredefinito"
  Storage = "storage-mycomputer"
}

Client {
  Name = mycomputer-fd
  Address = 172.17.0.11
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = Catalog
  Password = "ARm7qyF3lJSBKJ9NRICUj+Ry3PRJ3EZN92EnilHFVb8/"
  File Retention = 30 days
  Job Retention = 6 months
  AutoPrune = yes
}

Storage {
   Name = "storage-mycomputer"
   Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
   Address = 172.17.0.1
   Device = "FileStorage-mycomputer"
   Password = "8GGBGvyuXppCgc3YxoPe5nDiX5yYhKIO22gmITaKg"
   Media Type = "File-mycomputer"
}


This is the storage configuration, for that client:

Device {
   Name = "FileStorage-mycomputer"
   Media Type = "File-mycomputer"
   Archive Device = "/var/bacula/backups/clients/mycomputer"
   LabelMedia = yes;
   Random Access = Yes;
   AutomaticMount = yes;
   RemovableMedia = no;
   Requires Mount = no;
   AlwaysOpen = no;
}


Any help?

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes

2010-04-29 Thread peter


I've changed my configuration to add a 'Maximum Volumes =' directive for the 
pools, and have cancelled jobs, and restarted Bacula. 

Some of the volumes are in the loader, and some have been removed for storage.  
The Maximum Volumes directive is equal to the total volumes assigned to the 
pool (whether or not they are in the loader).

Now, with another pool, I have the same error:

29-Apr 10:06 orlbacula-sd JobId 14890: Job daniel2-backup.2010-04-28_21.05.22 
waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:

The device status is "blocked waiting to create a volume":

Have you tried putting a 'Maximum Volumes = 13' directive in your Pool
resource to tell it not to create any more new volumes besides the ones
you already have?

(Though if your retention is 14 days, you probably need to have at least
15 volumes.)

Hello,

I'm trying to understand what condition would cause bacula to not find 
any appendable volumes, or recycle any tapes.


*ver
orlbacula-dir Version: 2.4.2 (26 July 2008) i686-redhat-linux-gnu redhat

I'm getting this error:

Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:

I've have these tapes in the pool.

It might also help if you add 

Purge oldest Volume = yes

to the pool definition, followed by "update pools from resource" in
bconsole. This way, bacula will automatically recycle and re-use the
oldest volume in the pool if there's none left in state "append".

All your volumes are either full or used (not appendable), and volume 
retention time is far away for those volumes are being recycled.

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes

2010-02-15 Thread Tino Schwarze

Hi there,

I've been struggling for weeks to get my previously working setup
working again. :-( I read the docs multiple times but was unable to spot
my fault.

I've got the following setup:

Pool {
  Name = Weekly
  Pool Type = Backup
  # volumes are moved to Scratch manually, avoid automatic recycling
  Recycle=no
  AutoPrune = no
  Volume Retention = 6 weeks
  Volume Use Duration = 23 hours
  RecyclePool = Scratch
}

Pool {
  Name = Scratch
  Pool Type = Backup
  RecyclePool = Scratch
  Recycle = yes
  AutoPrune = yes
  Volume Use Duration = 2 days
  Volume Retention = 14 days
}

Pool {
  Name = Daily-Autoloader
  Pool Type = Backup
  Volume Retention = 14 days
  Volume Use Duration = 2 days
  RecyclePool = Scratch
} 

And even though there are volumes in the scratch pool, e.g.:
Pool: Scratch
+-++---+-+-+--+--+-+--+---+---+-+

Bacula does not pick them up for the weekly backup. The daily backups
work as expected. But all the weeklies fail:
Job xxx_Server.2010-02-14_06.10.36 waiting. Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:
Storage:  "Superloader-Drive" (/dev/nst0)
Pool: Woechentlich
Media type:   LTO-3 

What am I missing? Do I need a Recycle=yes in the Weekly pool? I suppose
not - at least according to the documentation, Bacula will always look
into the scratch pool for new volumes.

BTW: Bacula version is 2.2.5.

Thanks for any hints,

Tino.

Hi!

Thanks for your answer.
Here is the config for this pool:

Pool {
  Name = xxx_daily
  Pool Type = Backup
  Recycle = yes   # Bacula can automatically recycle 
Volumes
  AutoPrune = yes # Prune expired volumes
  Volume Retention = 27 days
  Volume Use Duration = 10h
}

Thanks.

2010-01-14 Thread Anton Albajes-Eizagirre

Juergen,

I'm not really expert on Volume managing (i'm new on bacula's
world :-$), but it might have some relations about the messages you're
getting about volume purging and recycling time. You should check you
retention periods for volumes, for example.

I'm sure it would be very helpful for anyone having exact notions about
all this if you could provide your config files (specially sections
configuring pools).

Hope this gives you some hints,

anton

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes - Please use the "label" command to create a new Volume for:

2010-01-14 Thread Juergen Mehmke


Hi!

We have a problem with Bacula 3.0.2 (Update from 2.x).

Some backups starts normally. Bacula purged and recycled the inserted 
tape. Suddenly Bacula says "Can not find any appendable volumes. Please 
use the "label" command to create a new volume for ...".
Exactly one hour later, then Bacula automatically turns on with the 
backup as if nothing had happened.


At this point, Bacula has already found the right tape and prepared the 
tape for the next backup. Why then did he suddenly finds no tape anymore?


That makes Bacula since the update to version 3.0.2.

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes.

2009-02-09 Thread KNOPS Manfred

Hello together,

 

I hope someone can help me.

Last Saturday bacula should make fullbackup for 22 clients.

It starts at 20:05 with the first client.

At Sunday morning 04:04 it send me messages like this:

08-Feb 04:04 backupserver-sd JobId 232: Job
helios-Automatic-Backup.2009-02-07_20.05.21 waiting. Cannot find any
appendable volumes.

Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:

Storage:  "helios-Device" (/backup/helios)

Pool: helios-Pool

Media type:   File

 

I have no idea where the problem is.

This job works fine last January.

 

Here is the job definition:

# /etc/bacula/helios-backup.conf

 

#

# Job definition for host helios

#

Job {

  Name = helios-Automatic-Backup

  Type = Backup

  Client = helios

  FileSet = helios-FileSet

  Schedule = WeeklyCycle

  Storage = helios-Storage

  Messages = Standard

  Pool = helios-Pool

}

 

The fileset definition:

#

# Fileset definition for host helios

#

FileSet {

  Name = helios-FileSet

  Include {

Options {

  signature = SHA1

  compression = GZIP9

  @/etc/bacula/excludedAbaqusFiles.conf

  }

File = /etc

File = /var/lib/ldap

File = /local/data/home

  }

}

 

The pool definition. It's the same definition like all other client pool
definition, excepting the hostname:

#

# Pool Definition for host helios

#

Pool {

Name = helios-Pool

Pool Type = Backup

Recycle = yes

AutoPrune = yes

Volume Retention = 1 months

Use Volume Once = yes

Maximum Volume Bytes = 4509715660.8

Label Format = "helios-"

Maximum Volumes = 31

}

 

The schedule definition:

## When to do the backups, full backup on first sunday of the month,

##  differential (i.e. incremental since full) every other sunday,

##  and incremental backups other days

Schedule {

  Name = "WeeklyCycle"

  Run = Full first saturday at 20:05

  Run = Differential second-fifth saturday at 20:05

  Run = Incremental monday-friday at 20:05

}

 

The job starts and generate some volumes.

list volumes jobid=232 

Jobid 232 used 7 Volume(s):
helios-0331|helios-0332|helios-0333|helios-0334|helios-0335|helios-0336|

This job should backup 70GByte files

5 T diskspace are enough, I think:

/dev/sda1 2,0T  237G  1,7T  13% /fileserverShare

/dev/sda2 6,0T  781G  5,0T  14% /backup

 

In www I red that I can fix this instead I prune some older volumes of
helios.

I did this. But nothing happens.

Then I red about storage deamon problems. So I restarted the storage
daemon.

After that, bacula stopped this job and started the next job.

 

Bacula directory and sotarge daemon are installed on the same machine.

An opensuse 11.0 x86_64 pc.

Bacula installed in version.

fileserver:/etc/bacula # rpm -qi bacula-mysql-2.4.3-1

Summary : Bacula - The Network Backup Solution

Description :

 

But it is the i586 package. Not the x86_64 version.

The x86_64 version didn't work on this machine.

 

I checked the number of volumes for other clients.

Other pools containes more volumes.

The volume number isn't  > 999.

 

After I restart the storage daemon it starts the next job. This job
generates a volume called john-0338.

 

This job was the second full backup job for this machine.

 

So, where is the problem?

Manfred

There's your problem.  That volume has status ERROR.

Change it to Append using "update volume" within bconsole.

Then issue a mount command.

Hi,

I use files to store my backups, and all scheduled backups ran fine when
I got the error 'Cannot find any appendable volumes' out of the blue.
The filesystem that holds the backup file is not even close to full. The
file that was used previously is there, it's writable, nothing changed
since the last successful backup.

What should I do to resolve the situation? I'd like bacula to continue
using the the file it did before. I tried to run the sd with -d99, but
looking at the output I still don't know what's wrong.

Well, for me it was even sufficient to restart just bacula-sd, this
unblocks the drive in turn.  I also think I found the root of all evil
that was eventually causing the hardware errors the changer reported
(which in turn made bacula-sd block the drive), it was probably a line
in the chio-bacula script my changer couldn't really stand.

Anyway, I'd still be interested in learning how to unblock the drive
/without/ cancelling the job, and restarting bacula-sd, i. e. a way to
tell bacula-sd: "Hey, all the trouble is gone, the hardware is fixed
again, please just continue now."

When I have this issue I do the following.

1. Make sure that the request for an "appendable volume" isn't legitimate.
It happens, tapes fill up and no more are available in the changer.
2. Cancel any tape jobs. Let any disk jobs complete
3. Stop bacula-dir, bacula-sd
4. Remove bacula-dir.state, bacula-sd.state
5. Restart bacula-dir, bacula-sd
6. Run canceled tape jobs.

That might explain it, but then I'd still like to know how to recover.

The night before, one backup was aborted since the autochanger script
somehow got confused about the slots to unload the tape into, and then
the ch(4) device (this is FreeBSD which has a kernel device driver for
media changer devices) refused to unload the medium because the
desired destination slot was not empty.  Prompted by this, I modified
the autochanger script to always use the "chio return drive 0" command
rather than even trying to trust the slot number passed in from Bacula
-- I found my L280 can always exactly remember which slot the medium
has been loaded from, even after a power cycle, so there's no point in
trying to move the tape to anything else but its source slot.

After fixing this, I did not restart the bacula daemons though.  The
last messages from the previous night's failed jobs were:

03-Nov 03:13 uriah-sd JobId 35: 3304 Issuing autochanger "load slot 3, drive 0" 
command.
03-Nov 03:14 uriah-sd JobId 35: Fatal error: 3992 Bad autochanger "load slot 3, 
drive 0": ERR=Child exited with code 1.
Results=chio: /dev/ch0: CHIOMOVE: No space left on device

03-Nov 03:14 uriah-fd JobId 35: Fatal error: job.c:1817 Bad response to Append 
Data command. Wanted 3000 OK data
, got 3903 Error append data

One day later (i.e. this morning), the messages were:

04-Nov 03:03 uriah-dir JobId 36: Start Backup JobId 36, 
Job=UriahHome.2008-11-04_03.03.24
04-Nov 03:03 uriah-dir JobId 36: Using Device "Drive-1"
04-Nov 03:03 uriah-sd JobId 36: Job UriahHome.2008-11-04_03.03.24 waiting. 
Cannot find any appendable volumes.

I.e. it did not even attempt to touch the changer.

So how would I have to tell the Bacula daemons my media changer
problems have been fixed?  Remember, even a full "update slots scan"
did not unblock it.

2008-11-04 Thread Mingus Dew

I hope someone answers your question. I've seen this same issue reported my
me and others with no admission that there is a bug. I personally can't find
anything wrong with my configuration. Could you check your bacula.log for
any errors in the tape jobs prior. I've noticed that library error (mtx
output) is not making it into the failure emails, only the request for an
"appendable volume"

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes. (but they are there!)

2008-11-04 Thread Joerg Wunsch

I see there's another message with that subject already.  My problem's
a little different: the appendable volume /is/ there, but Bacula
refuses to use it.  The drive is BLOCKED, and I don't know how to make
it proceed.  I eventually gave up, and killed the job so the other
outstanding jobs could at least proceed, but would like to know why
Bacula didn't really use the volumes, to avoid the problem in the
future.

The message is:

Cannot find any appendable volumes.

I had to mark uriah-002 artificially "Full" because of the drive's
power vanishing before finishing to write the last job that went onto
the tape, so the tape is currently not really appendable anymore.  But
both, uriah-004 and uriah-006 should be OK to be written to, so what's
missing?

Since the drive was BLOCKED, unmount/mount did not do anything at all
(the changer script was not started), and even "update slots scan" did
not unblock it, even though it thoroughly scanned all the available
volume headers (and thus confirmed the volume status).

I did not attempt to relabel uriah-006 since I want it to continue
filling up medium uriah-004 first, until that one is really full.

[Bacula-users] "Cannot find any appendable volumes"

2008-10-08 Thread Doug Sampson

Hi all,

I'm running Bacula 2.4.2 off a FreeBSD 7.0 server using a DDS-3 tape drive.

I'm using a Grandfather/father/son tape rotational scheme where I back up
the data and the catalog as two nightly jobs onto a tape each time that it
runs. All is well. Except for the monthly full backup. It will start the
data backup and complete it. It starts the catalog backup job and report
that it cannot find any appendable volume. I have to cancel that job in
order to get going with the next backup job. Monthly backup jobs are
scheduled the first Saturday of each month.

The weird thing is- the monthly job definition is exactly the same as the
weekly job definitions. I have absolutely no issues with the weekly jobs nor
with the daily jobs.

Not all volumes, but you can use the purge command on a single volume.

Ah, right.  Originally I wondered if all the volumes had a few (unpruned) jobs
left on them.

They should be recycled automatically if the parameters allow it.  Check the
recycle flag and the volretention -- they will not be recycled until
lastwritten+volretention has past.

Ok, but if there are many pruned jobs, why are no volumes recycled.

Is there a command to recycle all volumes without any residing jobs ?
(IMHO bacula does this sometimes on deman, but is it possible to trigger)

hmmm ... the query results in fictious high values ... I think this is becaus 
most
of my jobs span over many volumes.

I thought, to solve my problem, I have to find out which Volumes have no jobs 
on it:

SELECT Media.VolumeName, JobMedia.JobId
  FROM Media LEFT OUTER JOIN JobMedia
  ON Media.MediaId=JobMedia.MediaId
  WHERE JobMedia.MediaId IS NULL;

... this query found lots of volumes ... but the volumes have still status 
"Full" and
bacula is complaining about no appendable volumes.

What's the correct way to recycle such volumes ? (dbcheck didn't help)

The "list jobtotals" command only counts what is in the catalog so maybe some
job records have been pruned?

I think this query will list how much Bacula thinks is on each volume (tested
on PostgreSQL):

SELECT VolumeName,
   sum(JobFiles) as Files,
   sum(JobBytes) as Bytes
  FROM (SELECT DISTINCT Media.VolumeName, Job.JobId,
Job.JobFiles, Job.JobBytes
   FROM Media,JobMedia,Job
   WHERE Media.MediaId=JobMedia.MediaId  
   AND JobMedia.JobId=Job.JobId) as JobInfo
  GROUP BY VolumeName;

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes ???

2007-06-21 Thread Wolfgang Powisch (privat)

Hello,

My setup is as follows:

- Bacula 1.38.0
- One large Pool with 1125 on-Disk Volumes (each 2GB)
- about 14 Clients
- Schedule: weekly full, daily incremental
- Job-Retention: between 1 and 8 weeks, depending on client
- Volume retention 2 month

My Problem:
After some time all Volume get status "Full" and jobs stuck with
the message "Cannot find any appendable volumes". I don't understand
how this can happen, because:

- "list jobtotals" shows a sum of 1494 GB
- available volumes: 1125*2GB = 2250 GB

Where are 756 Gb lost ???
why are no volumes recycled ?


thanks in advance for your help,

Simple answer (but I wanted you to check first :-)
The volumes are not eligible for pruning.

It is used because it has the maximum number of jobs on it. You 
configured that...

Remember: The pool settings are nothing but a template for the volumes 
assigned to the pool. When changing the pool settings, the existing 
volumes have to be updated accordingly.

Use the bconsole 'update volume' command.

Hi,

the backups this night where not successfull because of:

12-Jan 01:05 nudel-sd: Job client-fiori-files.2007-01-12_01.05.01 waiting. 
Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:
Storage:  "FileStorage" (/mnt/files/.bacula)
Media type:   File
Pool: Inc-Pool

I wonder why this happens.

2005-11-21 Thread Kern Sibbald

You ran into a bug in 1.38.x that causes the Director to incorrectly handle 
Pool names containing spaces.  Bug #492 has a patch file that will add all 
current patches to 1.38.1 generating 1.38.2.  Note, this patch file is 
preliminary because there may be additional changes before the 1.38.2 
release.

If you only want to fix the current problem, look at the patch for 
src/dird/catreq.c.  That part of the patch file contains a one line addition 
that fixes your bug ...

[Bacula-users] Cannot find any appendable volumes on already labeled tapes.

2005-11-21 Thread Cedric Charest

Hash: SHA1

Hello!

I'm trying to configure Bacula for our backups at work with an Exabyte
Packetloader 1x10 80/160 changer/tape backup.

The changer is supported and everything, but I'm having a weird problem.

Each time I start a job, I get this:

- --
18-Nov 23:05 newt-sd: Job Newt_Incremental.2005-11-18_23.05.00 waiting.
Cannot find any appendable volumes.
Please use the "label"  command to create a new Volume for:
Storage:  "Exabyte VXA2 Drive" (/dev/nst0)
Media type:   VXA-2
Pool: Tapes Pool
- --

BUT, all my tapes were labeled with a "label barcodes" and are appendable:
- --

An "st st" gives me:
- --
Device status:
Autochanger "Exabyte VXA2 Packetloader 1x10" with devices:
   "Exabyte VXA2 Drive" (/dev/nst0)
Device "DiskStorage" (/mnt/archive) is not open or does not exist.
Device "Exabyte VXA2 Drive" (/dev/nst0) is mounted with Volume "A001"
Slot 1 is loaded in drive 0.
Total Bytes Read=64,512 Blocks Read=1 Bytes/block=64,512
Positioned at File=0 Block=0


In Use Volume status:
A001 on device "Exabyte VXA2 Drive" (/dev/nst0)

- --

If I try to label a tape with another name, it says it's already labeled
as A001, as an example.

My bacula-sd.conf looks like this:

- --
Device {
  Name = Disk Storage
  Media Type = File
  Archive Device = /mnt/archive
  LabelMedia = yes;  # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
  Random Access = Yes;
  AutomaticMount = yes;  # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
}

Autochanger {
   Name = "Exabyte VXA2 Packetloader 1x10"
   Device = "Exabyte VXA2 Drive"
   Changer Command = "/usr/local/bacula/etc/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
   Changer Device = /dev/sg1
}

Device {
   Name = "Exabyte VXA2 Drive"
   Media Type = VXA-2
   Archive Device = /dev/nst0
   AutomaticMount = yes;
   AlwaysOpen = yes;
   RemovableMedia = yes;
   RandomAccess = no;
   AutoChanger = yes
   Changer Command = "/usr/local/bacula/etc/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
   Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert|cat'"
   Changer Device = /dev/sg1
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
