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

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