Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: bacula

I use "$Client-$Year-$Month-$Day" as my LabelFormat. Recently I tried to
backup a server called ralph (this was a scheduled job). The Volume was
created with the correct name but the job failed as the FileDaemon was
not running, as below:


24-Oct 08:17 floyd-dir JobId 65: Created new Volume "ralph-fd-2009-10-24" in 
catalog.
24-Oct 08:17 floyd-dir JobId 65: Using Device "FileStorage"
24-Oct 08:17 floyd-dir JobId 65: Warning: bsock.c:123 Could not connect to 
Client: ralph-fd on 192.168.1.254:9102. ERR=Connection refused


The job eventually terminated itself. Subsequently I tried to run a job 
manually to backup a different server (benson) and got the following output:


24-Oct 13:43 floyd-dir JobId 66: No prior Full backup Job record found.
24-Oct 13:43 floyd-dir JobId 66: No prior or suitable Full backup found in 
catalog. Doing FULL backup.
24-Oct 13:43 floyd-dir JobId 66: Start Backup JobId 66, 
Job=benson.2009-10-24_13.43.03
24-Oct 13:43 floyd-dir JobId 66: Using Device "FileStorage"
24-Oct 13:43 floyd-sd JobId 66: Labeled new Volume "ralph-fd-2009-10-24" on 
device "FileStorage" (/bacula-volumes).
24-Oct 13:43 floyd-sd JobId 66: Wrote label to prelabeled Volume 
"ralph-fd-2009-10-24" on device "FileStorage" (/bacula-volumes)
24-Oct 13:43 floyd-dir JobId 66: Volume used once. Marking Volume 
"ralph-fd-2009-10-24" as Used.


Note that the Volume name is again "ralph-fd-2009-10-24". It should have been 
"benson-fd-2009-10-24". It looks like the variable expansion has retained the 
client name "ralph-fd" from the failed job. Either that or bacula is not trying 
to create a new volume at all, but instead reusing the volume created 
previously but not labelled or written to.
