Hi all,
I started a backup to tape. There were about one and a half tape free (in a four-tape set), I did not think of allocating more tapes to the pool.
Unfortunately, there is more data to back up than there is tape in the pool. The task ended in `alloc writable media in pool 'tapeset' failed: no usable media found`.
The log tells me that the previous snapshot finished,
The log ends some 240 GB (in chunks, not in log volume ) further down,
Can PBS pick up the thread of the back up after allocating another tape to the pool, without restarting the whole task?
