Could not find next Volume for Job error

Post Could not find next Volume for Job error 
Hello,

We are running Bacula 5.0.1 on Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit on a Dell server with an internal LTO-3 tape drive. We have three pools (Daily, Weekly and Monthly) configured and Bacula has been running without incident for almost a year now until today.

When running the list nextvol command the following error message appears:

Could not find next Volume for Job Windows Server Backup (Pool=Weekly, Level=Full)

When I run the list media command for the Weekly pool three tapes are listed in the used status with a volume retention period of 14 days. The oldest tape was written on 5-24-2012 so I would expect this tape to be used next.

Pool: Weekly
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+
| MediaId | VolumeName | VolStatus | Enabled | VolBytes | VolFiles | VolRetention | Recycle | Slot | InChanger | MediaType | LastWritten |

| 10 | 32X010 | Used | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1,209,600 | 1 | 0 | 0 | LTO-3 | 2012-05-24 21:57:55 |
| 11 | 32X011 | Used | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1,209,600 | 1 | 0 | 0 | LTO-3 | 2012-05-31 21:57:28 |
+---------+------------+-----------+---------+----------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+

Any help would be appreciated in determining why Bacula cannot find the next volume.

Hi.

Maybe some change related with storage, and the bacula-dir didn't know that.

Juan,

What we ended up doing was to manually change the status on the tape we wanted to use to Recycle and then when we re-ran list nextvol it found the correct tape.  Don’t quite understand why this worked but it did.  Thanks for your response.
