Looks like a bug to me. > Has anyone run into a similar situation? Not me, but I understand there are some improvements in the autochanger handling, especially for devices with more than one drive, in the 2.0 code. > I believe because of this problem, I needed to unmount and remount the > volumes to get bacula to finish the backup jobs today. That sounds quite reasonable. ... > Here is my autochanger and device setup: ... which looks perfectly ok to me... ... > Please let me know if you need more information. I see two possible ways to continue: - Try to make the problem reproducible. That might mean to spend lots of time, perhaps without success. Then report this as a bug at bugs.bacula.org - the information you gave seems quite clear to me. Though I can't tell for sure, I could imagine Kern fixing the problem even after he's mainly working at version 2 now (probably as a back-port of a patch for the current version). - Upgrade to version 2. Even if this doesn't necessarily fix this particular issue (and keep in mind I did not check at bugs.bacula.org if something like your bug has been reported yet :-) the chances that it will be fixed once you reported it at bugs.bacula.org are a little better, I think. I assume that this probem doesn't hit you very often, right? In that case, I'd recommend to simply continue using 1.38.11 and preparing the step to version 2 (which is not a really difficult one). When you can reproduce the problem, report it at bugs.bacula.org. Move to Bacula 2.0 when it suits you, and see if this problem persists. If it does, you should report it again as soon as possible to get this fixed. > Thank you, Hope this helps, Arno > Tom. > ---- > Thomas Boyda <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Consultant Proxicom, Inc. > http://www.proxicom.com > Phone: 276-739-2314 > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Take Surveys.
