I've set-up a migration job to migrate jobs from one set of tape volumes to
disk volumes. I've configured the destination pool to use the volume once
and have a retention period of 2 months. For some reason when the migration
job completes and gets to the next queued migration job it marks the
destination volume as purged and then overwrites the contents with the next
job. The Jobs from the source pool are being marked as purged, so the data
is going straight into the bit bucket!
I'm using version 2.4.4 from Debian and here is the pool and job portion of
my conf files.
Pool {
Name = 454FLX
Pool Type = Backup
AutoPrune = yes
Storage = Neo8000-LTO4
VolumeRetention = 3 years
Recycle = yes
Next Pool = DD-454FLX
}
Pool {
Name = DD-454FLX
Pool Type = Backup
LabelFormat = "454FLX-"
Recycle = yes
AutoPrune = yes
Storage = DD-454FLX
Volume Retention = 2 months
Use Volume Once = yes
}
Job {
Name = "Migrate_454FLX"
Type = Migrate
Level = Full
Client = 454datarig-fd
FileSet = "FULL Windows"
Messages = Standard
Pool = 454FLX
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4
Selection Type = Volume
Selection Pattern = ".*L4"
}
Here is a piece of the output that is confirming my bit bucket suspicion:
25-Jun 17:50 babacula-dir JobId 37438: Start Migration JobId 37438,
Job=Migrate_454FLX.2009-06-25_15.15.54.27
25-Jun 17:50 babacula-dir JobId 37438: There are no more Jobs associated
with Volume "454FLX-0169". Marking it purged.
25-Jun 17:50 babacula-dir JobId 37438: All records pruned from Volume
"454FLX-0169"; marking it "Purged"
25-Jun 17:50 babacula-dir JobId 37438: Recycled volume "454FLX-0169"
25-Jun 17:50 babacula-dir JobId 37438: Using Device "DD-454FLX"
25-Jun 17:50 lsbacsd0-sd JobId 37438: Ready to read from volume "000002L4"
on device "Drive-2" (/dev/tape/drive2).
25-Jun 17:50 lsbacsd0-sd JobId 37438: Recycled volume "454FLX-0169" on
device "DD-454FLX" (/backup/pools/454FLX), all previous data lost.
25-Jun 17:51 babacula-dir JobId 37438: Volume used once. Marking Volume
"454FLX-0169" as Used.
25-Jun 17:50 lsbacsd0-sd JobId 37438: Forward spacing Volume "000002L4" to
file:block 418:0.
So, two questions. 1. What am I doing wrong? 2. Is there an easy way to
unpurge the jobs on the tape since they have not been recycled, or do I have
to run bscan on them?
