Dear All

My incremental backups are getting to large for the disc to hold them
prior to them being recycled. There is the odd incremental that is very
large.

I have another disc that can be used to hold some of the files. I have
volume names of IncNNNN for XP workstations and IncVmwareNNNN for VMWare
workstations.

My idea was to move the IncVmware volumes to the other disc and copied
them to the disc and added and a device to bacula-sd.conf modified
bacula-dir.conf etc (see below)

On testing a new volume was created and not the expected recycling of an
existing volume.

The problem is the MediaType is different was File (osiginal MediaType
is now FileVM

Using phpMyAdmin I could not see a easy method to change the MediaType
for these volumes.

Any ideas or method to change the MediaType for some volumes?


Thanks in advance

Stephen Carr


Device {
   Name = FileVM
   Media Type = FileVM
   Device Type = File
   Archive Device = /bacula/storage
   LabelMedia = yes                    # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
   Random Access = yes
   AutomaticMount = yes               # when device opened, read it
   RemovableMedia = no
   SpoolDirectory = /spool
   Maximum Spool Size = 40gb
}

and a new Storage entry in bacula-dir.conf
# Definition of File storage device
Storage {
   Name = FileVM
   Address = elizabeth.civeng.adelaide.edu.au
   Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
   SDPort = 9103
   Password = "civeng"          # password for Storage daemon
   Device = FileVM                    # must be same as Device in
Storage daemon
   Media Type = FileVM                # must be same as MediaType in
Storage daemon
}
