Hey guys, could anyone give me a hand?
This is my scenario... I have a client that, some times, loses the connectivity
with the storage1 but it has with storage2.
Could I let configured storage2 as a "backup" using only one job?
Thanks!

Hello Justin,
I noticed that your t1-pool-full has a wrong NextPool defined. It is pointing

Hello Jim,
After making pool modifications you should do:
* reload (of course :)
* update pool= (for each modified pool)
* update volume fromallpools (to update all volumes existing in all pools to
inherit the pool new settings like retention
periods)
Hope this helps!

And you can do:

Hello Bruce,
I see this in your Pool:

Maximum Volumes = 4

Check the backup log. Newer versions of Bacula will tell you something along the
lines of "Maximum volumes in pool reached,
cannot create a new volume", and then you will get the mount/label request.

Of course this will not work. The client is behind NAT, and the Director cannot

Hello Josh!
Maybe. However, it depends on what the client is doing. If the client
goes into sleep-mode, it will not re-establish the connection after the
ReconnectionTime. In that case, the Director would not have an active
socket and so may well try to establish one.
This does not seem to be

I can confirm that if the FD --> DIR connection is opened, then the Director

Hello Nick,
For the pool you showed us, the VolRetention is `31,536,000` seconds.
This is not 7 days, but 1 year.
You may need to restart your Director, then perform the steps in my previous
email again to see the results you are looking for.
For VolRetention, you should see `604800` which is
