Hey guys
Hope you all had a nice weekend
I have a problem which has me stumped at the moment.
Currently running Bacula Version 5.0.3 on Debian connected to a Dell TL2000
autochanger with 2 x drives.
I am trying to run backup jobs across both drives simultaneously but
consistently hit the "XXX job is waiting on storage storagedev-LTO" despite the
fact that only 1 drive of 2 is in use (1 drive free).
Can anyone please shed any light on this?
Current configuration:
bacula-sd.conf
Autochanger {
Name = "DELL-TL2000"
Device = LTO4-0, LTO4-1
Changer Device = /dev/changer
Changer Command = "/etc/bacula/scripts/mtx-changer %c %o %S %a %d"
}
Device {
Name = LTO4-0
Drive Index = 0
Media Type = LTO-4
Archive Device = /dev/nst0
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
Autochanger = yes
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert| cat'"
}
Device {
Name = LTO4-1
Drive Index = 1
Media Type = LTO-4
Archive Device = /dev/nst1
AutomaticMount = yes; # when device opened, read it
AlwaysOpen = yes;
RemovableMedia = yes;
RandomAccess = no;
Autochanger = yes
Alert Command = "sh -c 'tapeinfo -f %c |grep TapeAlert| cat'"
}
The changer device is symlinked /dev/changer to sg6.
JobsDef.conf:
JobDefs {
Name = "testbackup"
Type = Backup
Level = VirtualFull
Schedule = "DailyVirtualFull"
Pool = Default
Messages = Standard
FileSet = "Full Set"
Prefer Mounted Volumes = no
Priority = 100
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
}
and finally "bacula-sd.conf":
# Definition of file storage device
Storage {
Name = bacula-LTO
# Do not use "localhost" here
Address = bacula # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here
SDPort = 9103
Password = xyz
Device = "DELL-TL2000"
Media Type = LTO-4
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
Autochanger = yes
TLS Enable = yes
TLS Require = yes
TLS CA Certificate File = xyz
TLS Certificate = xyz
TLS Key = xyz
}
Does anyone have any tips or ideas as to why this is happening? Note I am using
"Prefer Mounted Volumes = no" - I understand that by default a single pool
utilizes only one drive, perhaps I need to define a second in order to get
around this issue - what do you think?
Thank you for your help
