I recently started having a problem where bacula is not remember previous volumes and wants to create them again. It then errors out because there is valid files from the previous backup. Eventually these errors stack up enough to cause the job to not run.
I have done a search in the mysql database and I find 1 record for each volume name in Media. So the data is getting into mysql. I have tried to turn up the debug to 200 via the console setdebug command. This did not give any more information on where the error is happening. This is only happening with one backup job out of about 45 jobs. The rest run fine without error. OS: Freebsd 6.2-stable Bacula-dir,sd,fd: 1.38.11_2 Here is the output of one backup. I will then show the next backup where it tries to use the same volume again. 01-Apr 21:00 bacula-dir: Start Backup JobId 6993, Job=db-xxx-1-fd-DB-XXX-OnlyLog.2007-04-01_21.00.01 01-Apr 21:00 bacula-dir: db-xxx-1-fd-DB-XXX-OnlyLog.2007-04-01_21.00.01 Warning: Wanted to create Volume "bacula-sd003-Full-db-xxx-0103", but it already exists.

Marking Volume "bacula-sd003-Full-db-xxx-0112" as Used. Then when the next backup happens it tries to use the same volume and errors again. Eventually bacula errors out so much it will stop the backup job. 01-Apr 21:00 bacula-dir: Start Backup JobId 6993, Job=db-xxx-1-fd-DB-XXX-OnlyLog.2007-04-01_21.00.01 01-Apr 21:00 bacula-dir: db-xxx-1-fd-DB-XXX-OnlyLog.2007-04-01_21.00.01 Warning: Wanted to create Volume "bacula-sd003-Full-db-xxx-0103", but it already exists.
