I have configured bacula to write volumes to disk, however bacula stops writing to the volume as soon as it reaches 2gb. The file system is not an issue as I have stored files larger than 2gb.
06-Dec 17:22 backup-sd JobId 8421: End of Volume "Full-Monthly-0005" at 0:2147475577 on device "FileStorage" (/nfs/backup-pool). Write of 64512 bytes got 8069.
06-Dec 17:22 backup-sd JobId 8421: End of medium on Volume "Full-Monthly-0005" Bytes=2,147,475,578 Blocks=33,288 at 06-Dec-2012 17:22.
backup1@backup:/nfs/backup-pool$ ls -alh Full-Monthly-0005 <br>
-rw-r----- 1 bacula tape 2.0G Dec 3 16:14 Full-Monthly-0005
bacula-dir.conf:
Pool {
Name = Full-Monthly
Pool Type = Backup
Recycle = yes
Volume Retention = 5 months
Volume Use Duration = 1 day
Maximum Volumes = 5
Maximum Volume Bytes = 12gb
}
bacula-sd.conf:
Device {
Name = FileStorage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /nfs/backup-pool
LabelMedia = yes # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
Random Access = Yes
RemovableMedia = no
AlwaysOpen = no
Label media = yes
Maximum Volume Size = 12gb
}
In my original configuration Maximum Volume Bytes and Maximum Volume Size were not set at all and so should have defauted to no maximum but that did not work either.
