Owner: Fedora Infrastructure Team


Contact: #fedora-admin, sysadmin-main
Location: Phoenix
Servers: backup01
Purpose: Our backup solution
== Troubleshooting and Resolution ==
You can get to the bacula management console with:
<code>
sudo /usr/sbin/bconsole
</code>
From there you can get a overview status with:
<code>
status dir
</code>
Or a more specific status on the tape drive with:
<code>
status
2
2
</code>
=== Intervention Required ===
If the tapes fill up, it may be required to purge the oldest volume.  This is done with the purge command.  Select volume, then a list of volumes comes up.  Pick the oldest volume that has not already been purged or recycled.
<code>
list volumes
</code>
then
<code>
purge
</code>
It will ask you for the media-id or volume -id. Enter the one from the <b>oldest</b> tape listed above in list volumes.
After that the oldest tape will be purged, but bacula may not resume on it yet. You need to load the tape to make sure it realizes it can go on:
<code>
mount
</code>
It will ask for the device (say tape), then ask for the slot id. Enter the number from above in list volumes.
